An enterprise browser is a specialized web browser designed for corporate use, featuring advanced security, centralized management, and seamless integration with enterprise systems. It ensures compliance with corporate policies, protects against cyber threats, and optimizes productivity by managing web access and securing sensitive data. The key features include comprehensive protection against malware and phishing, IT management tools for remote control of settings and policies, and secure data handling through encryption. The typical users include IT administrators, security professionals, and business leaders, and more.
Gartner defines security service edge (SSE) as a solution that secures access to the web, cloud services and private applications regardless of the location of the user or the device they are using or where that application is hosted. SSE protects users from malicious and inappropriate content on the web and provides enhanced security and visibility for the SaaS and private applications accessed by end users. Security service edge provides a primarily cloud-delivered solution to control access from end users and edge devices to applications (private or delivered via SaaS) as well as websites (and to a lesser extent general internet traffic). It enables a hybrid workforce more efficiently than traditional on-premises solutions. Capabilities integrated across multiple traffic types and destinations allow a more seamless experience for both users and admins while maintaining a consistent security stance.
