Push Security and GuidePoint Partner to Deliver Browser-Based Detection and Response

Cybersecurity Network with Glowing Padlocks

Push Security and GuidePoint Security have partnered to bring real-time browser-based detection and response to enterprise customers. The goal is to help organizations close security gaps at the browser layer - the place where employees work, and where attackers increasingly move.

The browser has become the center of work. Employees log into cloud apps, share data, and build products from within them. Yet, for many companies, it remains the least protected layer of their environment. Attackers exploit this blind spot with phishing kits, stolen cookies, and session hijacking.

Bryan Wallace, vice president of global partnerships at Push Security, told MSSP Alert that the new partnership with GuidePoint is meant to change that.

"Partnering with GuidePoint Security is an exciting step forward for Push. Their trusted team of security experts supports some of the most complex and highly regulated organizations, and together we can help those customers gain visibility into unmanaged app usage and browser-based risks that traditional tools often miss,” he said.

Wallace added that by combining GuidePoint’s deep enterprise expertise with Push’s real-time detection and response, “enterprises can close critical security gaps faster and with far less friction for their users.”

Securing the Browser Where Work Happens

Traditional endpoint and network tools were built for a time when applications stayed inside corporate networks. But today, work happens in the browser. People log in, move data, and perform sensitive operations from SaaS apps and web portals. That shift has left a gap that legacy tools don’t cover.

“Work has moved into the browser, but most security tools haven’t kept up,” Wallace said. “Traditional EDR and network solutions protect devices and traffic - not the browser, where most user activity and risk now live.” He explained that Push takes a different approach by giving teams “visibility and control right at the browser level, without agents or network taps.”

The result is a platform that protects users where they spend their time, detecting session hijacking, suspicious extensions, and abnormal browser behavior in real time. For GuidePoint customers, this means extending the reach of their current tools into the browser itself — reducing risk without disrupting the way people work.

A Partnership Aligned with Modern Security Models

GuidePoint’s strategy has long focused on helping enterprises adapt to new security models as work shifts to the cloud. The Push partnership builds on that approach, aligning with trends toward identity-, SaaS-, and browser-centric protection.

“GuidePoint Security helps enterprises stay ahead of technology shifts, and today that means moving toward browser-focused security,” Wallace said. “Our customers are looking for protection that goes beyond endpoints and networks, right to where most attacks start—in the browser.”

He added that the collaboration will help organizations bring browser-level insights into their existing security operations, integrate SaaS and identity risks, and automate responses without adding complexity. In his view, this marks a natural next step in how companies modernize defenses for a cloud-first world - one where attackers target users, not just systems.

Opening the Door for MSSPs

The partnership also creates new opportunities for MSSPs. Many organizations rely heavily on web-based workflows but lack the in-house expertise to monitor and respond to browser-layer threats.

“This partnership opens the door for MSSPs to offer a new type of managed security service focused on the browser, where most user activity - and most attacks - happen,” Wallace said. He noted that traditional MDR tools often miss this layer, but with Push, MSSPs can now monitor app access, browser sessions, and extensions in real time. “For organizations without large SOCs, this means full browser-level protection: spotting unmanaged SaaS, containing compromised sessions, and automating policy enforcement,” he said.

By adding browser defense to their managed offerings, MSSPs can deliver faster detection, stronger compliance, and better user protection - all without additional endpoint agents or infrastructure changes.

The Push-GuidePoint partnership reflects a broader move in enterprise security: protecting the tools people actually use. As browsers continue to replace desktops and networks as the core workspace, defending them directly is becoming essential.

Push brings that capability, and GuidePoint brings the reach, expertise, and trust to take it to enterprise scale. Together, they’re addressing one of the most active - and often ignored - layers of modern security.
