You invest in the best tools to manage your servers, your network, and your endpoints. But when it comes to the browser – the critical place where most users work now happens – are you still in the dark? Traditional IT tools offer limited visibility into the complex world of web applications, extensions, and user behavior inside the browser. Let’s look at how this blind spot impacts your IT team and what you can do about it.
Web applications are supposed to make work easier, but when they crawl, it’s a major productivity drain. Users complain, helpdesk tickets pile up, but where’s the problem really coming from? Is it the server? The network? Or are the culprits lurking within the browser itself? Without true insight, troubleshooting is guesswork.
Proton’s Answer: Browsium Proton provides granular insights into page load times, Legacy Application execution, and even individual extension performance. Now, IT can pinpoint the true source of slowdowns – whether it’s a misbehaving application, a poorly coded extension, or an outdated browser version.
Browser extensions offer powerful functionality, but they can also open the door to security risks. Outdated versions of legacy software used by web applications are a known attack vector. Trying to manually track installed extensions, out-of-date components, and suspicious browser behaviors across your enterprise is nearly impossible. This leaves your organization vulnerable.
Proton’s Answer: Proton gives security teams the data they need to manage web-based threats. It provides a detailed inventory of browser versions, installed extensions, and their individual usage patterns. This visibility allows you to quickly identify potential risks and take action to protect sensitive data.
Demonstrating compliance with regulations like HIPAA, PCI DSS, or GDPR often involves gathering extensive data on browser configurations, usage, and security measures. Manually collecting this information is a time-consuming nightmare, taking resources away from other critical tasks.
Proton’s Answer: Proton’s automated, detailed reporting streamlines browser audits. It delivers the information you need on browser versions, configurations, and user behavior – all in a format that makes demonstrating compliance far easier.
Wouldn’t it be a relief to stop putting out browser-related fires and start preventing them? With Proton’s in-depth insights, IT can identify trends and potential problems before they become major headaches.
Examples: Spotting a pattern of errors tied to a specific extension allows for proactive removal before it causes widespread issues. Tracking web application usage patterns lets you optimize resource allocation. Identifying outdated browser versions in use prepares IT for seamless and secure upgrades. Conclusion
The complexity of modern web applications creates blind spots that traditional IT management tools can’t fill. Browsium Proton is purpose-built to shed light inside the browser, giving IT teams the data and control they need to manage proactively, enhance security, and ensure compliance.
