SquareX also enables users to keep their identity safe and private. These cloud-powered temporary container sandboxes are headless browsers running in data centers on behalf of the user so that all web threats get neutralized and never reach the user’s computer. SquareX does this by leveraging its cloud service and enables users to open links and files in disposable browsers so that users are protected against any kind of potential threats. It integrates with the browser as an extension and monitors and protects users while they go about their online activities. SquareX is addressing this problem by engineering a cybersecurity product from the ground-up, purpose-built to tackle the current generation of threats. Coupled with widespread and involuntary personal data collection, an average internet user simply does not feel safe online. These products also often hinder productivity by blocking access to files and resources that may not actually be malicious, leading users to disable or uninstall them, and leaving them more vulnerable to attacks. Unfortunately, the existing generation of cybersecurity products are ill-equipped to combat these threats, as they were designed at a time when the primary threats were file viruses, worms, and network attacks. With the browser becoming the new “operating system,” attackers are targeting them, introducing an entirely new range of threats such as phishing, identity theft, session hijacking and other browser-based attacks. In today’s Cloud-SaaS era, the landscape has shifted significantly as professionals primarily use web browsers for all their online activities – checking mail, creating documents, uploading/downloading files, streaming content, banking, and e-commerce. It will use the funds raised on R&D-engineering and go-to-market. The company announced that it has raised $6 million in a seed round led by Sequoia Capital Southeast Asia.
