SpinCRX not only adds new apps and extensions regularly, but retains data on past versions, so you can accurately assess every app and extension regardless of which version is installed. The importance of this data is illustrated in use cases where versions of an app have been compromised with malicious code that opens a back door into the host’s environment. Additionally, if a new version is released with proper security updates to address vulnerabilities, you want to make sure that’s the version your team is installing. Or, if a new version is released that does not address existing risks, you want to know about it. Therefore, every version is assessed independently.

Yes, we understand that especially in very large environments you may require a mixed approach to browser security rollouts. This allows you to differentiate how you secure various users based on your own environment, and your own risk thresholds. For example, if you want to use the agentless approach to secure contractors who use their own machines, but use the agent-based approach to secure full-time employees whose devices are fully managed, our flexible deployment model allows you to do this painlessly.

A Secure Enterprise Browser addresses risk during specific user sessions, rather than providing comprehensive browser security. This kind of browser is a tailored web browser specifically designed with enhanced security features to protect corporate data and manage enterprise environments while your employees browse the internet. It integrates built-in security measures such as advanced threat protection, sandboxing, data encryption, and privacy controls to safeguard sensitive information while ensuring compliance with organizational policies. The purpose of this tool is to prevent a live attack and monitor data, packets, and attachments during potentially risky user sessions. Such browsers are typically developed to function seamlessly within enterprise IT ecosystems, offering centralized management control for IT administrators to enforce security policies and monitor browser activities across the organization while users are on the internet. 

What these tools fail to address is broad security policy enforcement for attempted user installations of potentially risky or malicious browser extensions and apps for other browsers. So, if users access the internet from an external account or a different browser, the corporate environment is  left unprotected. Additionally, these tools do not provide visibility into what apps or extensions are installed and their corresponding risk levels. Nor do they provide monitoring or streamline approvals processes.

On the other hand, SpinCRX’s enterprise browser security tool addresses this significant security gap by monitoring either through your corporate account browser which doesn’t need to be specially designed or customized – in one deployment model – or all accounts browsing the internet, whether or not they are a user’s corporate account – for the presence of risk and malicious extensions. Not only does it leverage continuous monitoring with a breakdown of what makes each app risky or malicious, but it also performs real time risk assessments and policy control for install attempts and applies your security policies either automatically, or manually if you choose.In this way SpinCRX gives you full visibility and risk-based policy control over what extensions or apps can and cannot be installed based on your organization’s risk threshold. Unlike a standalone Secure Enterprise Browser, SpinCRX provides comprehensive browser security without requiring a complete switch to a separate browser application.

SpinCRX sets itself apart from other browser security platforms through its comprehensive approach to threat detection. Rather than just observing a threat, SpinCRX helps identify apps and extensions that have indicators of compromise (IOCs) present, acting as your research team on every app and extension in the market. In terms of access control, SpinCRX employs advanced algorithms to monitor and restrict applications that request overly permissive or unauthorized access, ensuring that only verified users and approved apps or extensions can access sensitive browser data. 

SpinCRX is not intended to replace data protection tools like those embedded in SpinOne for DLP, ransomware detection and response, and immutable backups with a 2-hour recovery SLA.SpinOne uses real-time encryption and decryption to safeguard data transmitted through the browser, significantly reducing the risk of data breaches. As a supplementary tool,SpinCRX performs a detailed threat analysis on all browser apps and extensions and integrates seamlessly with existing security frameworks to bolster the security posture of applications accessed via the browser.

Browser hardening and remote browser isolation are two legacy approaches aimed at enhancing web browsing security for enterprise safe browsing practices. SpinCRX addresses a completely different set of security challenges. Where these solution types address users’ activities while browsing, SpinCRX is designed to address posture through continuous monitoring, visibility, governance, and control over all browser apps and extensions users wish to install.

Browser Hardening refers to a set of techniques and practices designed to enhance the security of web browsers for phishing protection and other data exfiltration issues that come up with remote cloud services environments. This involves configuring browsers to reduce their phishing attack surface by disabling or limiting potentially vulnerable features, implementing extensions for added security, ensuring browsers are up-to-date with the latest patches, and enforcing stricter policies on website permissions. Common practices include disabling Flash and other unnecessary plugins, using ad blockers, and configuring security settings to prevent script execution from untrusted sites.

Browser Isolation involves a recreation of a user’s session in an isolated environment, so if they are compromised while browsing, attackers can’t access  the corporate environment or follow them back to it.

SpinCRX addresses browser hardening to help protect users from various web-based threats. SpinCRX is a cybersecurity tool that integrates into browsers as a hardened extension in a web browsing environment focused on enhancing security by preventing risky apps and extensions completely if they seek to enable scripts, cookies, data exfiltration, or are connected to risky external URLs– a telltale sign the app is actually installing a backdoor to be leveraged by attackers either in the moment or in the future. So, rather than relying on one-off functions like script blocking, content filtering, cookie management, ord enforcing strict or custom data security policies, it prevents these risks entirely by keeping risky apps out of your environment. Why allow something to be installed that is a known threat to your SaaS and data security posture? Protecting your environment means eliminating and mitigating risk holistically, not rolling the dice on individual actions.

Yes, you can allowlist trusted tools, block risky ones, and offer safe alternatives while maintaining user productivity through SpinCRX.

Policy-based control, visibility, and enforcement integrate with managed Chrome deployments and enterprise directory settings via SpinCRX.
