Backed by intelligent privilege controls and simple to deploy across devices, CyberArk Secure Browser is purpose-built for a cloud-first world, providing secure, consistent access to both on-premises resources and SaaS applications. It allows unprecedented visibility, control and governance for security teams, helping to prevent the malicious use of compromised identities, endpoints and credentials both at and beyond login. Secure Browser is a component of the CyberArk Identity Security Platform, enabling secure access for any identity — human or machine — to any resource or environment from anywhere, using any device.

“Increased usage of remote access, SaaS applications and cloud infrastructure created a security blind spot for us, prompting a rethink of our security posture and investment in tools to secure unauthorized access to critical assets via our distributed workforce,” said Chris Dove, Enterprise Architect, California Department of Finance. “Adding CyberArk Secure Browser to our existing CyberArk deployment will allow us to strictly enforce security policies without sacrificing productivity. We will be better able to safeguard our data, making sure employees can only access work systems through a secure, isolated browser that rotates passwords and keeps them from being saved – and potentially stolen.”

A March 2024 study of US office workers further highlights the browser-based cybersecurity risk exposure faced by organizations¹:

• 78% use the same device to access company-confidential and sensitive information as they do for personal browsing
• 65% said that they need to violate organizational safe browsing policies to perform their role (12% “always” violated policies).
• 59% save workplace logins and passwords in the web browser used to perform their job.

Available to customers of the CyberArk Identity Security Platform, CyberArk Secure Browser safeguards the organization’s most valuable resources, enabling a secure passwordless experience, easy access to privileged information and assets and helping to prevent breaches resulting from cookie theft and session takeover attacks. Recent major security breaches and new research from CyberArk Labs demonstrates how easy it is for techniques like cookie theft to give threat actors unauthorized access to sensitive data and assets, completely bypassing authentication tools. Secure Browser can ensure that there are no cookies to steal.
