The digital transformation has placed the browser in the center of business productivity. The rise of SAAS applications and the intensive use of artificial intelligence tools have also made one of the main cybernetic exposure points. In this scenario, Akamai Technologies has taken a step forward by sealing a strategic alliance with Seraphic Security to integrate safe business browser functions into its Zero Trust security platform.

Growing risks in the AI ​​era

It is increasingly common for employees to access critical applications and AI services from multiple devices and locations. This, although the agility of the business increases, also opens the door to threats such as data filtration, the improper use of credentials or malicious accesses difficult to detect with traditional defenses. The company argues that the protection of the browser must be located in the center of the security strategy to prevent risks that exceed the scope of the corporate network.

In the words of Ilan Yeshua, executive and co -founder director of Seraphic, “companies are realizing that non -managed browsers and the risks of AI tools create problems that traditional network security systems cannot solve.” With this integration, he explains, organizations can adopt new technologies “without fear of putting their data and users at risk.”

For its part, Offer Wolf, Senior Vice President and General Director of Business Security of Akamai, highlights that the Union with Seraphic goes beyond what the conventional SSE model offers: “By combining safe business navigation with our Ztna solution, we offer a simpler way to protect applications, SAAS systems and tools of AI in any device, without the heavy infrastructure and complexity of traditional proxies ”.

Simplified and scalable security

The joint proposal is supported by the Akamai Global Network to ensure the performance and availability of applications, regardless of where the user is or the resource to which he access. Thanks to this infrastructure, organizations can guarantee rapid and safe connections in any hybrid or multicloud environment.

In addition, the system incorporates devices safety checks without installing additional software, which simplifies management and avoids friction in the employee’s experience. To this is added a greater prevention against the loss of data in private environments and a unified panel that centralizes supervision, reducing the complexity and costs associated with corporate safety.
