Menlo Security: The Future of Browser Security & Threat Prevention

About Product

What is Menlo Security?

A browser security pioneer specializing in cloud-based isolation technology to protect enterprises from web-based threats. It treats the browser as a critical enterprise asset, securing access to the internet, SaaS apps, and internal resources.

Key Features

  • Secure Cloud Browser:
    Executes all web content remotely; sends only safe visuals/files to endpoints.

    • Blocks malicious files/ransomware.

    • Prevents browser exploits (0-days) and session hijacking.

  • HEAT Shield:
    Real-time phishing detection using AI logo recognition, URL analysis, and page rendering inspection. Detects threats 6 days earlier than competitors.

  • Unified Management:
    Central Admin Console for policy enforcement, forensics, and reporting across all browsers.

  • Deployment Flexibility:
    Options include browser extension, proxy integration, or full proxy replacement.

  • Application Protection:

    • Secures apps from infected endpoints (blocks HTTP header/payload injection).

    • Granular per-app controls (read-only, timeout policies, geo/IP restrictions).

  • Browser Forensics:
    Records user interactions (screenshots, keystrokes) for incident response.


Differentiators

  • Superior Architecture:
    Cloud isolation ensures no active content reaches endpoints (vs. enterprise browsers that trust local devices).

  • Proactive Security:
    "Prevention over detection" model neutralizes threats pre-execution.

  • Efficiency:
    Reduces VDI costs, simplifies IT management, and accelerates incident response.

  • Compliance:
    Enforces data governance for regulated industries (banks, healthcare, government).

 


Use Cases

  • Zero-hour phishing protection

  • Secure contractor/remote access

  • VDI replacement

  • Gen AI adoption with data controls

  • SaaS/private app security

  • Ransomware/malware defense

Menlo Security positions itself as an all-in-one platform to make secure browsing "the only way to work," trusted by governments, banks (e.g., Bank of America, Visa), and enterprises globally.

Core Capabilities

  1. Threat Prevention

    • Blocks zero-hour phishing, evasive ransomware, malware, and browser exploits.

    • Neutralizes threats before they reach endpoints via cloud-based execution.

    • Uses HEAT Shield (AI/computer vision) to detect phishing sites impersonating brands in real time.

  2. Data Security

    • Enforces DLP policies (300+ global dictionaries for PII/PCI/PHI).

    • Controls copy-paste, uploads/downloads, and watermarks sensitive data.

    • Inspects password-protected files (blocks 2M+ monthly in customer traffic).

  3. Secure Access

    • Provides zero-trust access to web/SaaS apps, SSH/RDP, and private apps.

    • Replaces VDI with clientless, cost-effective cloud browsing ($1,000/user savings).

    • Secures contractors/BYOD users without endpoint agents.

  4. Generative AI Security

    • Granular controls for ChatGPT/AI tools:

      • Block/allow AI sites.

      • Restrict copy-paste, uploads, data inputs.

      • Capture browser forensics (user inputs/screenshots).
