We’re thrilled to announce that Keep Aware has been selected as one of just four finalists in the Black Hat Startup Spotlight Competition!

This highly competitive event highlights cutting-edge cybersecurity startups poised to make an impact. Finalists are invited to pitch their solutions live at Black Hat USA 2025 in Las Vegas (August 2–7) in front of a global audience and a panel of expert judges, for a shot at winning the spotlight.

Bringing Browser Security to the Global Stage

This recognition is a huge milestone for our team. We’re excited to showcase how Keep Aware is redefining enterprise browser security with our unique approach to visibility, detection, and response, with zero disruption to users.

According to Forrester, over 80% of employees now perform all or most of their work within a browser. The critical actions that take place day-in and day-out in the web browser presents a new challenge for security teams and a key target for attackers. Keep Aware helps organizations secure every browser in the enterprise, instantly.

Our lightweight browser extension enables:

• Real-time extension management
• Gen-AI usage monitoring
• Browser detection & response
• Human-centric visibility across every tab

We’re excited to demonstrate how security teams can gain powerful protection and insights without disrupting productivity.
