Security teams must integrate browser detection & response capabilities into their enterprise security stack to gain real-time visibility, detect browser-native threats, and protect people where they work. Just as EDR transformed endpoint security, Browser Detection & Response (BDR) must become a core component of enterprise security, enabling real-time telemetry, JavaScript execution analysis, and browser-layer threat intelligence integration into security operations. From multi-step phishing to malware reassembly, new attack methods make it critical for security teams to rethink detection and response at the browser layer. Since traditional reputation analysis and isolation is ineffective against these tactics, security teams need detection models that operate within the browser itself to monitor page structure and detect changes over time—regardless of URL. Seeing a critical gap between security teams and employees—where strong defenses still let threats through—he founded Keep Aware to make the browser a cornerstone of enterprise security. Keep Aware’s recent browser security report highlighted that a staggering 70% of multi-step phishing campaigns impersonate Microsoft, OneDrive, or Office 365 applications. Unlike network and endpoint security, which monitor traffic and process execution, the browser is an active execution environment where content and scripts dynamically change. For a deeper dive into browser-based threats and emerging security trends, explore Keep Aware’s recent State of Browser Security report. Security teams must rethink browser governance, data security, and insider risk management as part of a holistic enterprise security strategy. The browser is no longer just a productivity tool—it is a primary attack surface attackers have weaponized to bypass traditional security defenses. The fundamental challenge in browser security lies in its unique data model—the Document Object Model (DOM)—which governs how web pages are rendered and manipulated but remains largely ignored as a vulnerability. Keep Aware provides security teams with instant visibility into browser activity.
