Securing the Browser for Humans & AI Agents with Menlo Security


Listen Later

This episode of Bottom Line Up Front features Jacqueline Biggio of Menlo Security discussing how AI agents are becoming the “next billion users,” shifting from copilots to autonomous actors that browse, transact, and make decisions at machine speed, expanding browser-based risk. Citing that 98% of attacks originate from internet usage and 80% target the browser, she explains why isolation-based browser security can stop threats before execution for both humans and AI agents by keeping web activity containerized and preventing untrusted content from reaching endpoints. She outlines four pillars—stop threats, connect and control applications, protect data without blocking work (including real-time CDR), and govern the entire workforce under requirements like Zero Trust and CMMC—emphasizing that compliance and governance must extend to non-human users.
