Securing Your Remote Workforce with Graphiant SASE

Prev Next

As organizations embrace even more hybrid work, securing the remote workforce has become one of the most critical—and complex—challenges in modern IT. Users now access applications from anywhere, primarily through the browser, while traditional security models built around VPNs, proxies, and centralized inspection points struggle to keep pace.

Graphiant extends its SASE stack to address this challenge by integrating browser-based security, identity, and data loss prevention directly into its platform. This approach enables secure, direct user-to-application access without exposing the network or introducing unnecessary complexity.

By combining Graphiant’s private connectivity fabric with integrated browser-native protection and Zero Trust access controls, organizations can protect users wherever they work while maintaining high performance and a seamless user experience.

Graphiant partners with Conceal to provide browser-based security for your remote users.

Accessing Browser Security Data Through the Graphiant Portal

Browser-based security, identity, and data protection insights are accessed through the Graphiant portal, which provides a direct link to the integrated security environment.

Browser security data is accessible from multiple areas within the Graphiant portal, making it easy to locate regardless of where you are working:

Viewing Connected Endpoints

Once setup is complete, you can see which endpoints are connecting to your network. Each one is listed by Conceal user identity:
