Wipro Ventures Backs SquareX to Strengthen Browser Security

Wipro Ventures is investing in SquareX as part of the company’s Series A round, putting a spotlight on browser-based threats that have quietly become a daily problem for many organisations. The partnership reflects a growing recognition that browsers sit at the front line of most cyber incidents, yet often fall outside the reach of traditional enterprise security tools.

Attackers increasingly use the browser as the first move, taking advantage of limited visibility in areas where SASE, SSE, and endpoint tools don’t always reach. Techniques like Last Mile Reassembly and data splicing are designed to slip past existing controls. SquareX targets this gap with a lightweight browser extension that can spot suspicious behaviour, protect identities, and block malicious add-ons or AI-driven activity without forcing companies to deploy a separate enterprise browser.

For Wipro Ventures, the investment ties back to mounting pressure from customers who are looking for more clarity and control at the browser level, especially across remote and hybrid workforces. The backing also aligns with Wipro’s broader push to help clients deal with internet-facing risks that don’t always map neatly to traditional security categories.

SquareX plans to lean on Wipro’s global customer network to scale adoption. Pairing Wipro’s channel reach with SquareX’s extension-based model gives enterprises a practical way to integrate browser detection and response into their existing environment without disrupting how employees work. As browser threats evolve, the two companies are positioning this partnership as a way to help security teams keep pace with attacks that increasingly originate where users spend most of their time.
