Singapore, 7th October 2024 — SquareX, a leader in browser security, is poised to transform the cybersecurity landscape as it prepares to showcase its revolutionary Browser Detection and Response (BDR) solution at GovWare 2024. From 15-17 October, cybersecurity leaders and experts will get a firsthand look at SquareX’s groundbreaking solution, which addresses client-side web attacks directly within the browser.
With web browsers being one of the most commonly used applications in enterprises, but often the least protected, SquareX aims to redefine the future of browser security. Bad actors continuously target the weakest link—employees and consultants—who unknowingly face web attacks during their daily tasks. SquareX’s BDR technology is designed to neutralize these threats as they happen, providing real-time protection for enterprise users.
Subverting Traditional Secure Web Gateways (SWGs)
While Secure Web Gateways (SWGs) are widely trusted across major enterprises, SquareX’s research reveals an often-overlooked attack class known as Last Mile Reassembly Attacks. These attacks can bypass even the most sophisticated SWGs recognized in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Secure Access Security Edge (SASE) and Secure Security Edge (SSE). SquareX’s findings challenge the efficacy of traditional SWGs and present the BDR solution as the ultimate safeguard against these advanced threats.
“Today, the browser is always the initial access point for web attacks,” says Vivek Ramachandran, Founder and CEO of SquareX. “SquareX’s technology stops these attacks in their tracks—in the browser itself, in real-time against complex client-side threats—without ever compromising employees’ security and productivity.”
BDR: Defending Against a Spectrum of Client-Side Threats
SquareX’s BDR solution detects and mitigates a variety of client-side attacks that traditional security tools miss, including Last Mile Reassembly Attacks, Browser-in-the-Browser (BitB) phishing, macro-based malware, and even malicious QR codes. This comprehensive approach ensures robust protection for enterprises from all angles.
“At GovWare 2024, we’re showcasing how SquareX fills the critical gaps left by traditional SWGs, and through its Browser Detection and Response solution, delivers an unprecedented level of protection for enterprises,” adds Ramachandran.

The team will also showcase SWG bypasses with more than 30 techniques actively used by attackers in the wild.
