Akamai announced its intent to acquire LayerX Security for approximately $205 million, pairing the world's most distributed edge platform and fastest ZTNA with LayerX's browser and AI security. Or Eshed, Co-Founder and CEO of LayerX Security, joins Alan Shimel on TechStrong TV to unpack what the deal means for enterprise workforce security and how the combined platform will let global organizations adopt AI without trading off productivity or availability. Or also walks through the latest LayerX AI usage report. Twenty percent of enterprise users are heavy AI users, 5 percent are full-blown AI employees running multiple LLMs across business workflows, and ChatGPT still tops Copilot inside the corporate browser. He explains the three degrees of AI usage — direct, embedded, and workflow-native — why CASB and SaaS-security paradigms break down on opinionated AI users, and why the browser has become the most critical and overlooked security layer in modern work.
