SquareX at Black Hat and DEF CON: Bringing Our Browser Security Research to the World
Team SquareX Takes on Hacker Summer Camp in 2025
With the twin events of Black Hat USA and DEF CON 33, Las Vegas transformed into the cybersecurity capital of the world once again this August, and SquareX was there in full force. After an incredible “hacker summer camp” last year, we were back with ambitious plans: sharing groundbreaking browser security research, live demonstrations of our Browser Detection and Response (BDR) platform, multiple talks, workshops and even new open-source tools for the security community.

The talk discussed bleeding-edge attack techniques targeting employees directly in their browsers and covered how AI-powered browsers (and agents, as we recently disclosed) are a security liability.
Audrey Adeline from our Founder’s office also hosted a fireside chat — The Trailblazer’s Guide to Cybersecurity, which struck a different chord. Together with
