Could working in your browser with tools like Google Docs and Salesforce be the biggest cyber threat facing enterprises today? According to Vivek Ramachandran, founder of SquareX, the answer is a resounding yes. He argues that as work has moved entirely online, traditional security has been left blind to a new generation of sophisticated, browser-native attacks.

This is precisely why his cybersecurity firm raised $30 million.

Vivek explains how his team is pioneering a new category, Browser Detection and Response, to protect the new enterprise endpoint: the web browser itself. He unpacks the strategy, SaaS model, and vision required to tackle this critical, underserved market.

We discuss:

• Why the web browser is the new front line for cyber attacks.

• The critical security gaps left by traditional antivirus and EDR.

• Key lessons from raising $30M to build a new product category.

• Using thought leadership at Defcon & Black Hat to win enterprise clients.

• The journey from a successful exit to tackling a new global problem.

Whether you're a CISO, tech founder, or an investor tracking the future of cybersecurity, this is a masterclass in why you need to rethink where the real threats lie.
