The Island Enterprise Browser

The Island Enterprise Browser is the enterprise workspace and application delivery platform that embeds security and IT controls directly into the browser. Island makes work simple, natural, and highly productive. It keeps data fundamentally secure, including across generative AI platforms and large language models (LLMs). By embedding the core IT, security, and productivity needs into the browser itself, Island’s unprecedented last-mile control enables organizations to precisely govern all browser activity and enforce policy across devices, networks, and applications.

IT teams log and audit work activity while keeping personal browsing private. Security teams protect sensitive data from unsanctioned AI services and the most sophisticated attacks with a secure-by-design architecture. And users gain productivity-enhancing features while working in the familiar Chromium-based browser experience.
