Zero Trust is the security buzzword of the moment, and while it is a very powerful approach, nearly every enterprise security product on the market – and some that aren’t even security products — are saying they enable Zero Trust. The problem is this: you can’t buy zero trust. It’s an approach, an architecture, and a journey, not software, hardware, or a service to deploy. Zero Trust also provides a rare opportunity in security - to reduce cost, improve security AND enhance end-user and customer experience.

Attackers are targeting enterprise users when they are online via attacks like spear phishing, malicious docs infected with malware/ransomware.
Today SASE/SSE’s Secure Web Gateway (SWG) component is touted as the solution to this problem. These SWGs look at traffic between the enterprise users and websites and try to infer attacks.
Unfortunately, attackers are subverting these SWGs and breaking into enterprises. There is an urgent need to stop this and the solution seems to be to have a browser native security agent which can detect-mitigate attacks happening on the users browser and allow enterprises to threat hunt web attacks company wide.
