As organizations increasingly build digital experiences through third-party software supply chains and AI-powered agents, sensitive data is now created directly in the browser — the point of creation for digital interactions — making it one of the enterprise’s most privileged yet least governed attack surfaces. Jscrambler’s Client-Side Security Platform is powered by a Behavioral Enforcement Core that governs how application code, third-party scripts, and sensitive data behave at runtime. By enforcing software integrity and data governance directly in the browser, the platform ensures sensitive data and AI inputs are controlled according to enterprise policy at the point of creation — before they leave the client environment. Trusted by leading global retailers, airlines, financial services providers, and healthcare organizations, Jscrambler provides the visibility and enforcement organizations need to stop client-side attacks, prevent data leakage, and maintain compliance with regulations including PCI DSS, GDPR, HIPAA, CIPA, CCPA, and the EU AI Act. 41 Ratings Visit Website Reflectiz Reflectiz is the AI-powered web exposure company trusted by hundreds of global organizations, including Cox Communications, DAZN, Village Roadshow, Leeds United, and lastminute.com, to continuously monitor and protect everything that executes on their live websites. The platform observes real browser execution, not configuration, capturing every script, pixel, and third or fourth-party tool as it runs, and using AI to detect malicious code, unauthorized data flows, and behavioral change the moment it happens. It deploys with zero code changes, zero agents, and no access to customer data, typically live within one business day. One engine powers four hubs, each answering a different question about the same website: Security Hub detects web threats that traditional tools like WAFs miss, from Magecart skimming to AI-generated scripts. Privacy Hub verifies user data is only collected and shared as authorized, supporting GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, and PIPEDA. Offensive Hub runs continuous, agentic penetration testing at up to 10x the capacity of manual pentesting. PCI Module automates PCI DSS 4.0.1 Requirements 6.4.3 and 11.6.1 with audit-ready evidence. Together they give Security, Privacy, Compliance, and Digital teams one 360-degree view of web risk instead of four disconnected tools. Reflectiz's Exposure Rating draws on an intelligence database built from monitoring millions of websites, and the platform has been recognized with a 2026 Fortress Cyber Security Award, a 2025 Top InfoSec Innovator award, and G2 High Performer status. Customers consistently cite fast, zero-touch onboarding and hands-on expert support alongside the platform. 33 Ratings Visit Website
