PALO ALTO, Calif., Oct. 9, 2025 – SquareX, a pioneer in Browser Detection and Response (BDR) space, today announced that it has been selected as winner of the“Browser Security Solution of the Year” award in the 9th annual CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards program. Conducted by CyberSecurity Breakthrough, an independent market intelligence organization, the annual program recognizes the most innovative companies, products, and technologies driving progress in the global information security industry.

SquareX's Browser Detection and Response empowers enterprises to detect, mitigate and threat-hunt web attacks like malicious extensions & GenAI DLP. SquareX's simple browser extension turns any browser on any device into a secure enterprise browser, ensuring security without compromising productivity. SquareX is the only solution that combines all three core aspects of browser security in a single platform.

Customers turn to SquareX to solve three key use cases: Browser Detection and Response to detect, mitigate and threat hunt client-side web attacks including malicious browser extensions, rogue AI agents, identity attacks, advanced spearphishing attacks, malicious sites and malicious files; Browser Data Loss Protection to prevent data loss and leakage with granular controls across genAI tools, clipboard (copy and paste), file sharing, data exfiltration attacks and insider threat; and Enterprise Browser to provide secure access to internal apps including web apps, SSH, RDP and thick clients for VDI reduction, BYOD, contractors and remote workers.

“As the browser becomes the new endpoint, it has become the most common initial access vector for attacks and data exfiltration. Our Browser Detection and Response solution secures any browser on any device, offering protection against browser native threats like rogue AI agents and malicious extensions, as well as advanced browser DLP and GenAI DLP controls,” says Vivek Ramachandran, Founder and CEO of SquareX,“Our extension is compatible with all browsers, including AI browsers, allowing us to provide the same capabilities and more, without the deployment and productivity challenges faced by enterprise browsers. Most importantly, we are the only solution that combines all three components of browser security in a single solution - Browser Detection and Response, Browser DLP and Enterprise Browsers.”

The mission of the CyberSecurity Breakthrough Awards is to celebrate excellence and spotlight breakthrough innovation driving the global cybersecurity industry forward. Covering a wide range of categories – including Cloud Security, Threat Intelligence, Risk Management, Fraud Prevention, Mobile Security, Application Security, Identity Management, and more – the annual program highlights the solutions and organizations redefining how we safeguard the digital world.

The 2025 awards program received thousands of nominations from more than 20 countries around the world, representing everything from disruptive startups to established global enterprises. This year's winners embody the cutting edge of cybersecurity technology, delivering next-generation protection and resilience in today's increasingly complex threat landscape.

“While 80% of an employee's time is spent on a browser, most existing solutions, such as EDRs and SASE/SSE, have little to no visibility into the complex platform that the browser has evolved into,” said Steve Johansson, managing director, CyberSecurity Breakthrough.“SquareX is the only solution that combines all three core aspects of browser security in a single platform, empowering organizations to proactively detect, mitigate, and threat-hunt sophisticated client-side attacks. We're thrilled to award SquareX with our 'Browser Security Solution of the Year' designation for 2025.”
