US-based enterprise workspace company Island has launched in Australia and has already secured several local customers, including Western Health in Victoria.
Island's platform claims to embed governance, security and data controls directly into the workspace employees use every day, enabling organisations to safely adopt AI tools, SaaS applications and web services while maintaining visibility and compliance.
The company offers a trio of products - Enterprise Browser, Enterprise AI and Enterprise Network - and offers a range of solutions covering SaaS and web apps, privileged access management, M&A onboarding and more.
Steve Tchejeyan, president of Island, said the company has grown rapidly as organisations around the world "recognise the browser has become the new operating environment for work".
“Australia and New Zealand are important markets for us given the strength of their enterprise sector and the increasing focus on enabling innovation and productivity while maintaining strong governance and security," he said.
Nick Lennon, Island’s MD for ANZ, said employees need open access to web applications, SaaS tools and AI to do their jobs effectively, but traditional security approaches introduce friction that slows people down or pushes them toward unsanctioned workarounds.
“Island solves this by building security, governance and productivity directly into the workspace employees already use — allowing organisations to safely say yes to modern ways of working rather than defaulting to blocking them," he said.
