Reevaluating SSEs: A Technical Gap Analysis of Last-Mile Protection

Reevaluating SSEs: A Technical Gap Analysis of Last-Mile Protection

May 07, 2025Browser Security / Enterprise Security
Security Service Edge (SSE) platforms have become the go-to architecture for securing hybrid work and SaaS access. They promise centralized enforcement, simplified connectivity, and consistent policy control across users and devices. But there's a problem: they stop short of where the most sensitive user activity actually happens—the browser. This isn't a small omission. It's a structural limitation. And it's leaving organizations exposed in the one place they can't afford to be: the last mile of user interaction. A new report Reevaluating SSEs: A Technical Gap Analysis of Last-Mile Protection analyzing gaps in SSE implementations reveals where current architectures fall short—and why many organizations are reevaluating how they protect user interactions inside the browser. The findings point to a fundamental visibility challenge at the point of user action. SSEs deliver value for what they're designed to do—enforce network-level policies and route traffic securely between en...
