Browser Security
Ermes Browser Security Platform
Browser extension security with behavioral threat detection, no VPN or proxy needed.
Ermes Browser Security Platform Overview
What it does
Ermes Browser Security Platform is a browser extension that adds an abstraction layer between the browser engine and web content so the vendor can inspect and block malicious pages, scripts, and extensions in real time. Unlike network proxies or remote isolation, Ermes runs on-device in the user's existing browser and does not require VPN, SSL inspection, or proxy infrastructure. The vendor positions it for hybrid and remote workforces that need web threat coverage without backhauling browser traffic.
How it works
The platform is organized into SESSION, AI, and contextual Data Loss Prevention (DLP) modules. SESSION covers web DLP, business credential protection, browser extension protection, advanced web filtering, and browsing risk assessment. AI-based protection targets zero-day phishing, cybersquatting, anti-tracking, malvertising, and generative AI misuse. Contextual DLP is listed as launching in 2026. Deployment uses a lightweight extension with centralized policy management; the vendor states protection can be activated within hours and cites on-device analysis that reduces exposure time to zero-day web threats from days to minutes.
Credentials and traction
Ermes Cyber Security is ISO 27001 certified. The vendor states it was cited as a vendor in Gartner's Emerging Tech Impact Radar: Security (2023) and in Gartner's Hype Cycle for Endpoint Security, 2023.
