LayerX Use Cases

LayerX enables security teams to monitor and reduce the attack surface of their browsers, enforce secure data usage across all web destinations, and protect against any type of attack delivered by a malicious web page

SaaS Security

SaaS Security

LayerX monitors SaaS-related browsing events to discover all apps, users, and identities within the SaaS environment, gain insights into each user’s activity and behavioral patterns, and prevent malicious app interaction and data theft\leakage. LayerX is the first solution that delivers the same level of visibility and protection to all SaaS apps used by the enterprise’s workforce, sanctioned, semi-sanctioned, federated sanctions, and fully unsanctioned alike, securing your environment ‘as is’ with no need for infrastructure change or time-consuming configurations

Key Capabilities

Auditing reports

  • Map all the applications in use, as well as the users, identities and accounts associated with them
  • Get granular visibility into all activities carried out across the enterprise’s SaaS ecosystem

Adaptive activity policies

  • Get alerts and block user access to a SaaS app upon detection of anomalous activity that can indicate an account compromise and malicious app activity or data interaction

Data protection policies

  • Configure policies to protect sensitive data by preventing its share or download from a sanctioned app or its upload from the user’s device to an unsanctioned app

Zero Trust in the Browser

Zero Trust in the Browser

LayerX enables you to use the browser as an additional, genuine, authentication factor for accessing corporate SaaS apps, across both managed and unmanaged devices. In addition, LayerX can enforce consistent and granular authorization policies across all SaaS apps to ensure there are no excessive access privileges to your users, as well as integrate with your cloud identity provider, to require additional user authentication or MFA verification upon accessing sensitive resources.

Key Capabilities

LayerX integrates with your cloud identity provider of choice to provide the following:

  • Configure access policies that allow access to a SaaS app only through LayerX’s extension (with LayerX acting as an additional authentication factor)

  • Configure activity policies to enforce least privilege access policies for resources within the SaaS app itself

  • Configure activity policies that leverage LayerX’s granular visibility into the user’s activity within the app to trigger additional verification when risk is detected

Protection Against Malicious Web Pages, Phishing & Malware

Protection Against Malicious Web Pages, Phishing & Malware

LayerX’s browser extension monitors browser sessions at the application layer, gaining direct visibility into all browsing events at their post-decryption stage, enabling it to analyze and enforce protective actions in real-time with no latency or impact on the user experience. LayerX can seamlessly modify the rendered web page to go beyond crude block\allow access to deliver granular enforcement that neutralizes the malicious aspects of the web page rather than blocking access to it altogether. LayerX provides the highest level of security without degrading the user’s browsing experience.

Key Capabilities

Real-time granular enforcement with near-zero user experience impact:

  • Detecting website activity that indicates malicious intention to trigger either alert or active enforcement policy
  • Modify any component within an accessed web page to pinpoint malicious activity and prevent its interaction with the browser

Enhancing protection of email security solutions

  • Replace session emulation with continuous scanning of the behavior and actions of pages that were accessed via email links, across both corporate email and personal webmail, blocking any detected malicious activity in real time

High-precision threat detection without relying on prior knowledge:

  • Detecting website activity that indicates malicious intention to trigger either alert or active enforcement policy
  • An independent ML engine that performs real-time analysis of each accessed web page with zero latency

Unmanaged Devices and BYOD Protection

Unmanaged Devices and BYOD Protection

LayerX provides a seamless alternative that preserves employees’ and contractors’ operational needs while maintaining the highest level of security to the corporate’s data. LayerX’s extension doesn’t involve intrusive software installation on employees’ machines since it merely extends the browser they are already using. In a similar manner, it enables enforcement of granular access policies on 3rd party contractors when they are accessing corporate resources from their own devices.

Key Capabilities

Data security on employees’ unmanaged devices

  • Deploy the lightweight LayerX extension on top of the browsers in your employees’ devices
  • Configure dedicated activity policies to limit data downloads and storage on unmanaged devices and prevent data compromise due to on-device malware
  • Prevent any malicious device-website interaction that may be initiated by on-device malware

Managed browsers as virtual terminals

Secure Browser Configuration & Attack Surface Reduction

Secure Browser Configuration & Attack Surface Reduction

LayerX’s extension provides a single, centralized interface to empower IT teams to effortlessly secure their browser – ensuring that all the browsers in the organization are fully patched and updated, as well as preventing the installation of malicious browser extensions. LayerX continuously monitors and inspects the extension, profiles, version, and credential usage of the enterprise’s browsers to ensure security best practices are maintained.
