Conceal unveils browser-native SSE, revolutionising web security at the edge

Conceal, a leader in web security innovation, has officially launched its groundbreaking Browser Native Security Service Edge (SSE), marking a significant milestone in how organizations approach web security. This new solution aims to fundamentally transform enterprise security by embedding robust protection directly within the web browser, eliminating the need for traditional, often cumbersome, security infrastructure.

Eric Cornelius, CEO of Conceal, highlighted the disruptive nature of the new offering. "This isn't an evolution. It's a hard reset," Cornelius stated. "We've ripped out the complexity, stripped away the latency, and put secure access where it should have always been – in the browser. It's fast, invisible, and built for the way work happens today."

The shift to browser-native security

Traditional security models, often reliant on Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI), Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), and legacy SSE solutions, were not designed for today's hybrid, cloud-first, and increasingly remote workforces. These legacy approaches can introduce complexity, latency, and create bottlenecks by forcing all traffic through central data centres or remote infrastructure.

Conceal's Browser Native SSE addresses these challenges by making the browser itself the security perimeter.

This means users can securely connect to any resource – whether in the cloud or on-premise – directly from their existing browser, without the need for additional agents, hardware, or complex configurations.

Key features and benefits

The core value proposition of Conceal's Browser Native SSE lies in its ability to deliver comprehensive security with zero friction for the end-user. Key features include:

True VDI, VPN, and legacy SSE replacement: It offers a streamlined, lightweight solution for managing secure access to any application from any browser, effectively replacing multiple legacy security tools.

• Built-in browser security: Links are scanned in real-time, sessions are protected, and threats are blocked directly within the browser before they can reach the endpoint. This protects against phishing, malware, ransomware, and zero-day attacks at the most vulnerable point.

• Instant access and unleashed performance: By removing the need for data center detours and proxies, the solution ensures instant access to applications and eliminates performance slowdowns often associated with traditional security stacks.

• Concurrent connections: Users can seamlessly work across multiple remote environments simultaneously without experiencing performance bottlenecks.

• Comprehensive security platform: Conceal's Browser Native SSE integrates modern alternatives for Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), Cloud Access Security Brokers (CASB), Secure Web Gateways (SWG), and Data Loss Prevention (DLP) into one clean, browser-native platform.

Ron Gula, Board Member and President of Gula Tech Adventures, praised Conceal's innovation, saying, "What Conceal has done is more than innovation – it's realignment. They've taken the chaos of legacy access and security and turned it into something elegant, efficient, and ready to deliver the future of secure connectivity today."

Conceal's Browser Native SSE is now available to enterprises and partners worldwide.
