Zoho Corporation, a technology company, has announced Ulaa Enterprise, an enterprise-ready version of the company's privacy-focused browser tailored specifically to the security and visibility needs of enterprise organisations.
With Ulaa Enterprise, companies can prevent threats at the browser level while striking a balance between potent security, ease-of-use, and extensive control features, all without the complexity of third-party tools or virtual environments.
Security for the modern workplace
Modern browsers serve as enterprise workspaces, with employees performing critical operations across SaaS apps, handling corporate data, and managing transactions entirely through browser windows.
Ulaa Enterprise is built with protection at its core, reducing reliance on external tools and ensuring tighter security without requiring extra layers, third-party integrations, significant IT overhead, or virtual desktop software prone to lag.
Shift to cloud-based software

"The shift to cloud-based software has made the browser the largest attack surface inside an organisation, yet no software vendor has been able to produce a secure browser that strikes the correct balance between depth of policy controls and straightforward usability," says Sridhar Iyengar, Managing Director, Zoho Europe.
"Ulaa Enterprise addresses the need for a proactive and comprehensive security solution for businesses to reduce their attack surface, keep users secure, and stay in control of their security."
Security features of Ulaa Enterprise
Ulaa Enterprise offers the following security features:
- Centralised Policy Management: Admins can define access controls, restrict downloads, manage extensions, and govern user behaviour through central policies applied across users and groups.
- Data Loss Prevention (DLP): Ulaa enforces DLP at the browser layer, blocking unauthorised uploads, copy-paste actions, screen captures, and downloads of sensitive data.
- Complete Visibility and Granular Control: IT teams can monitor risks, view detailed audit logs, and enforce security policies with precision at the browser level, reducing or eliminating the need for reactivity.
