1. A computer-implemented system for managing a federated browser security in an enterprise environment, the computer-implemented system comprising:
one or more hardware processors; and
a memory coupled to the one or more hardware processors, wherein the memory comprises a browser agent subsystem in form of programmable instructions executable by the one or more hardware processors, wherein the browser agent subsystem comprises:
an activity monitoring subsystem configured to monitor at least one of one or more user browsing activities and one or more enterprise contexts on a local web browser hosted on a user device associated with a user and one or more device attributes corresponding to the user device;
an identifier detecting subsystem configured to detect a pre-defined enterprise identifier corresponding to an enterprise environment, from a universal resource locator (URL) address of a web page, based on the monitored at least one of one or more user browsing activities;
the identifier detecting subsystem configured to detect the pre-defined enterprise identifier corresponding to the enterprise environment, from one or more user login credentials input on the local web browser hosted on the user device, based on the monitored at least one of one or more user browsing activities;
a secure browsing subsystem configured to initiate, in response to the detected pre-defined enterprise identifier, an execution of a secure web browser hosted on at least one of the user device and a virtual private cloud associated with the enterprise environment;
a data routing subsystem configured to route through the secure browsing subsystem, in response to initiating the execution of the secure web browser, at least one of a webpage URL, a login web page URL, the user login credentials, and information associated with a login webpage corresponding to the web page URL, the login web page URL, from the local web browser to the secure web browser; and
a federated browser security management subsystem configured to manage, in response to routing at least one of the web page URL, the login web page URL, the user login credentials, and the information associated with the login webpage, a list of the enterprise URL, a list of federated identity of the user in the secure web browser, for managing a federated browser security in the enterprise environment, wherein the federated browser security is managed for visibility and control of an enterprise security in the enterprise environment.
