CXO Talk:  Enterprise Browser:  Delivering Ease-of-Use and IT Control

Mike Fey, Co-founder and CEO of Island, notes that to break out of our typical walls of work—in favor of a remote and hybrid approach—organizations traditionally invest in methods like virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) to keep data within the businesses’ control.
Fey reveals that, now, you can deliver secure, remote access with no infrastructure, no need to back haul web traffic, and better visibility, control, compliance, and user experience without the infrastructure required by VDI. 
So, what’s the key? The Enterprise Browser. Fey explains how the Enterprise Browser improves upon VDI in this video.

The Enterprise Browser: Delivering Secure Remote Access without VDI

Enterprises have been utilizing virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI) for many years to ensure critical business data doesn’t leave the organization.
However, VDI adopters still contend with its complexity, significant costs, and less-than-ideal user experience (UX).
Tune into this short video to compare VDI to a new way to address these challenges—the Island Enterprise Browser—which affords your IT teams the same level of control without the high costs and management complexity.

Eliminate the Costs and Complexity of VDI with the Island Enterprise Browser

The browser has become a tech stack in and of itself, part-and-parcel with all of the complexity, the security issues, and the access control protocols that come with it. 
The solution, to date, has been to continue to layer different sets of technology on this environment, versus rethinking how we access web, SaaS, and cloud properties, notes Mike Fey, Co-founder and CEO of Island.
In this snackable video, Fey joins Michael Krigsman, Publisher and Industry Analyst at CXOTalk, to talk through the issues of using consumer browsers for business and how to rethink your browser approach.

CXOTalk: Why Rethinking Web, SaaS, and Cloud Access is Essential

In most cases, few have considered a run-of-the-mill browser as an enterprise tool. Yet, Island is introducing the concept of an Enterprise Browser as a new category of enterprise application.
So, what is the Enterprise Browser? Why should people care about it? And why does it matter for CISOs, CIOs, and senior-level leadership?
Tune into this video to find out, wherein our panel of Island experts introduce the Enterprise Browser concept and answer your questions.

The Enterprise Browser Explained: The Evolution of Browsers at Work

Stephen Lowe, CIO of Peak Support—a global business process outsourcer—says of the Island Enterprise Browser, “We went in thinking this is going to reduce risk for us and for our clients. We came out with a revenue-generating, ROI-delivering tool.”
So, what’s the story behind this thought-provoking quote? 
Securing third-party data in the cloud and in web applications becomes increasingly more complex when people who are not your employees access your data and applications to do work on your behalf—a reality with which Lowe and his organization had to contend.
Watch this customer case study to examine Peak Support’s success with Island, achieving higher levels of security control and adding Island to their outsourcing service stack.

Forrester reports that 54% of respondents to their Workforce Survey indicated all of their work can be accomplished on their primary web browser. At the same time, bad actors work to capitalize on broad adoption of these browsers used in the workplace. This creates challenges for even the most advanced endpoint security, remote browser isolation (RBI), and security tools, making it a critical time to think differently about the solution. 
Tad Johnson from Island joins Senior Analyst at Forrester Paddy Harrington to address the browser renaissance, the opportunities and challenges of securing users’ data through the web browser, and an emerging market area—the Enterprise Browser. 
Join the discussion to integrate Johnson’s and Harrington’s insights with your organization’s web security approach:
•        Ways to approach browser security
•        Benefits achieved with focused browser security
•        4 reasons to consider an Enterprise Browser 
•        And the capabilities of Island Enterprise Browser—broken down by consumer features & enterprise requirements.

The Browser Renaissance: Reshaping the Enterprise Security Landscape

We went through the Software-as-a-service (SaaS) revolution, which moved all our data into the cloud and all of our apps into the browser, but we didn’t change the browser. This reduced our control over our data. To address this, many organizations surrounded the problem with security products, such as CASB, that are outside the browser. Enterprise browsers can close that loop by restoring critical security controls over your sensitive data, such as role-based access controls, targeted data obfuscation, controls over data movement and storage, and much more.
 
Join this session to learn how Island, the Enterprise Browser, can ensure:
● Your data doesn’t leak using last-mile controls.
● Authentication is controlled by your identity provider.
● Any data, regardless of what app it is in, can be protected with DLP.
● Device security posture is assessed continuously.
● Every user action is properly logged and shared with SIEMs and analytics platforms.
