Browser AI Agents: The New “Weakest Link”
The adoption of Browser AI Agents comes with a massive security risk that is still significantly understudied. Most Browser AI Agents are trained to complete tasks, often without taking into account the security implications, making them even more prone to phishing, credential stealing and identity attacks than a regular employee.
SquareX’s research team has been conducting a study on the security awareness of Browser AI Agents, discovering that they indeed fall prey to even the most basic attacks.
This webinar will cover how Browser AI agents can be exploited, mitigating associated threats and managing their use throughout the enterprise.
