Work Securely.
Browse Freely.
Transform how your workforce accesses critical apps and data. Island embeds advanced security, zero-trust controls, and complete visibility directly into the browser, without compromising the user experience.
As a premier provider of enterprise security and data solutions, Somerford Associates is proud to partner with Island to fundamentally transform how your workforce operates. The Island Enterprise Browser shifts the security perimeter directly to where work happens, embedding advanced zero-trust controls, deep visibility, and strict data loss prevention into a familiar Chromium-based experience. Together, Somerford’s expert delivery and Island’s revolutionary architecture empower your organisation to secure BYOD, streamline third-party access, and retire costly legacy infrastructure, without ever compromising user productivity.
Why an Enterprise Browser?
The traditional approach to securing remote access and web apps is broken. It's time for a fundamental shift.
The Old Way
-
✗
Legacy VDI & DaaS
Slow, expensive to maintain, and universally disliked by end-users due to high latency.
-
✗
Consumer Browsers
Massive blind spots, unchecked data leakage risks, and absolutely zero native enterprise controls.
-
✗
Complex Endpoint Agents
Heavy, intrusive, break frequently, and impossible to deploy on third-party or BYOD devices.
The Island Way
-
✓
Familiar Experience
Built on Chromium. If your team knows how to use standard web browsers, they already know how to use Island.
-
✓
Native Security
Granular controls embedded directly where the work happens, protecting data in motion.
-
✓
Frictionless Deployment
Secures the workspace instantly on any device, anywhere, without infrastructure overhauls.
Complete Control. Zero Friction.
Everything IT needs to secure the enterprise, built natively into the application your employees use most.
Last-Mile DLP
Take control of data in motion. Granularly restrict copy/paste, screen captures, printing, and downloads on a per-app or per-user basis.
Secure BYOD
Enable third-party workers and personal devices instantly. Create an isolated workspace without heavy MDM profiles or costly infrastructure.
Deep Visibility
Eliminate browser blind spots. Capture rich, contextual telemetry on every user interaction and data movement for compliance.
Zero Trust Access
Enforce continuous authorisation. Evaluate device posture, location, and identity before granting access to sensitive web apps.
Safe Web Browsing
Protect users from phishing and malware. Natively sandbox risky sites and prevent dangerous downloads before they hit the endpoint.
Seamless Integration
Inject custom workflows, password managers, and multi-factor authentication directly to streamline the daily employee experience.
SASE Rebuilt for the Cloud & AI Era
Legacy SASE secures networks. Island secures interactions. Experience full converged security without the infrastructure sprawl.
Island Private Access (ZTNA)
Replace legacy VPNs with granular, per-app Zero Trust policies for internal web, RDP, and SSH sessions, keeping private assets invisible to the internet.
DOM-Level SWG
Block phishing, malicious payloads, and risky domains before rendering, delivering 10x faster access by removing proxy bottlenecks.
Integrated CASB & SaaS Posture
Detect SaaS misconfigurations, unmanaged file shares, and over-privileged accounts across your cloud ecosystem with out-of-band API protection.
Enterprise GenAI Governance
Give employees safe access to AI while strictly governing prompt data, file uploads, and tool access in real time to prevent IP leakage.
Dynamic Isolation (RBI)
Neutralise untrusted code by locally disabling high-risk Chromium APIs and streaming cloud isolation only when strictly needed.
The Architecture Advantage
| Capability | Legacy Network SASE | Island Modern SASE |
|---|---|---|
| Enforcement Point | Cloud proxies and network gateways | The user workspace & presentation layer |
| Traffic Path | Hairpinned through cloud hops, adding latency | Direct-path routing ("Perfect Packet") |
| SSL/TLS Decryption | Complex, resource-draining certificate chains | Native DOM visibility without proxy inspection |
| Last-Mile Control | Blind to copy/paste, screen capture, and prints | Granular control over all user interactions |
| GenAI Protection | Binary allow/block; blind to context inside prompts | Real-time prompt inspection and content boundaries |
| BYOD / Third-Party | Requires intrusive MDM agents or heavy VDI | Agentless web access via the Enterprise Browser |
Modernise Your IT Stack & Slash Costs
Island isn't just a security upgrade. It's a strategic business enabler designed to reduce friction and overhead.
Reduce Infrastructure Spend
Sunset costly, legacy VDI and DaaS environments. Shift standard enterprise workloads natively to the browser to save massively on licensing and servers.
Accelerate Onboarding
Provision secure access for new hires, remote contractors, and partners in minutes, not days. Zero hardware shipping or complex configurations required.
Enhance Security Posture
Close the single biggest gap in your modern security perimeter, the unmanaged consumer browser. Implement true Zero Trust where the work happens.
