Smarter Security: Akamai,Seraphic Team Up to Simplify SSE with Secure Enterprise Browsing

Akamai Technologies, the cybersecurity and cloud computing company that powers and protects business online, today announced that it has signed a strategic agreement with Seraphic Security, a leader in enterprise browser security, to integrate secure enterprise browser (SEB) capabilities into its existing portfolio of enterprise Zero Trust security products.

As organisations accelerate digital transformation and adopt Artificial Intelligence (AI), employees need easy-but-secure access to private applications, SaaS platforms, and AI tools from any device, anywhere. At the same time, enterprises need to safeguard internet access against both traditional web threats and emerging AI risks, like data leakage and malicious prompts. These risks go beyond network gaps. Meeting these demands requires a Zero Trust approach that enforces precise access controls, and delivers intelligent browser-level protection to help ensure security without disrupting productivity.

Akamai and Seraphic: Moving Beyond Traditional Security

This partnership enables Akamai to move beyond the traditional security service edge (SSE) approach to network access by providing a simpler and more cost-effective alternative that is easier to integrate with the rest of the security stack. By integrating Seraphic’s secure enterprise browser with its Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) product, Enterprise Application Access, Akamai can offer customers a comprehensive security solution that covers traditional SSE use cases.

“Enterprises are realising that unmanaged browsers and risky AI tools create gaps traditional network security can’t cover,” said Ilan Yeshua, CEO and Co-Founder at Seraphic. “Partnering with Akamai allows us to extend secure browsing into a broader Zero Trust framework, ensuring organisations can adopt new technologies confidently, while keeping users and data safe.”

“With Seraphic, we’re able to go beyond the limits of legacy SSE,” said Ofer Wolf, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Enterprise Security, at Akamai. “By combining Seraphic’s enterprise secure browsing with our ZTNA solution, we deliver a simpler way to secure apps, SaaS, and AI tools on any device, without the heavy infrastructure and complexity of traditional proxies.”

The partnership uses Akamai’s worldwide network to help provide an optimal experience, no matter where the users or apps are located. It also offers installation-free device posture checks, along with better data loss prevention for private application access. Plus, it simplifies everything by using one policy for all SSE components, with a single dashboard for monitoring and visibility. Akamai will offer its customers and partners both the combined solution, as well as stand-alone components.
