Are you ready for a ‘wow’ moment? Browse your way to a safer enterprise with Island and Endpoint Focus.

Safety is of paramount concern for today’s enterprise. Yet the harder you try to protect your organisation, the more complex your efforts seem to become with ever more security, IT, network controls, data protection, and app access protocols required.

It’s seriously hard work.

But what if all of a sudden – it wasn’t? That’s a ‘wow’ moment.

What if.

What if you could have all the convenience of an everyday internet browser (yes, the one designed for shopping, streaming, news, and social media) but for the enterprise?

With all the security, productivity, and access to the workplace, yet without all the expensive and high hoops to jump through?

What is an enterprise browser?
(And will it catch on?)

An enterprise browser is designed specifically for the workplace. It’s optimised to serve the needs of enterprise users (in a way they are highly familiar and comfortable with) while embedding your core security, IT, and productivity capabilities into a natural browsing experience.

According to Gartner:

By 2026

25% of enterprises will be using managed browsers or extensions, up from less than 10% today.

By 2027

the enterprise browser will be a central component of most enterprise superapp strategies as productivity capabilities drive adoption.

By 2028

enterprise browsers will be the core platform for delivering workforce productivity and security software on managed and unmanaged devices for a seamless hybrid work experience.

What’s the difference between a secure browser and an enterprise browser?

Secure browsers focus on solving the security challenges associated with consumer-grade browsers. While security is essential for enterprise applications, secure browsers often force a trade-off by delivering a less-than-enjoyable end-user experience.

By comparison, enterprise browsers take a broader approach. Enterprise-grade security, business workflow integrations, and end-user productivity requirements are fully incorporated into their design, delivering widespread value to business leaders. Critically, user adoption is high due to a streamlined browsing experience.

Why Island Enterprise Browser?

Island, the Enterprise Browser, is designed for productivity and security, delivered through a fast and familiar browser experience.

Since its launch in 2020, Island has partnered with over 200 global organisations – and is now the world’s leading internet browser for businesses.

What are the benefits?

Adopting Island Enterprise Browser reduces your tech stack.

You’ll no longer need to support the virtual desktop interface for accessing widely used business applications like Salesforce, and you can shut down VPN gateways by adding zero-trust network architecture in the process.

Island has also separated the operating system from the hardware with its enterprise browser. The browser can download your organisational policies to ensure correct formatting, reconfigure as needed, and deliver the appropriate apps for that work session.

And to top it off, it offers 100% out-of-the-box compatibility with SaaS and web applications and a great user experience.

What are some use cases for enterprise browsers?

with an enterprise browser, the critical data held by your SaaS and web apps is inherently secure – no need to rely on complex network controls, app-specific APIs, or solutions that sit outside the browser.

an enterprise browser delivers all the security, visibility and remote access capabilities you need without the cost, complexity, and frustration of VDI.

with zero-trust embedded into your browser (where most of your application and data access flows), you create an end-to-end zero-trust work experience.

say goodbye to specially provisioned devices. An enterprise browser allows contractors to simply log in and work securely using their own device (while you maintain control over access, data security and visibility).

enjoy more efficient and effective data protection when it’s built directly into your enterprise browser!

forget the months or years usually required to merge IT systems from different organisations. Enterprise browsers open up those lines of communication from day one, hour one.

it’s time to move on from mobile device management solutions and VDIs. An enterprise browser balances all the security considerations for a lower cost, with easier admin and a natural user experience.

with an enterprise browser, your staff can immediately access the communication tools and business apps they need even while your regular IT systems are down.

Why Endpoint?
