ISLAND INTRODUCES THE WORLD’S FIRST SELF-PROTECTING BROWSER

May 16, 2023

Only Native Browser in History with Built-In Capabilities to Ensure a Safe
Experience

DALLAS, May 16, 2023 – Island, the leader and pioneer in the Enterprise Browser
market, today announced Self-Protection for the Enterprise Browser, delivering a
fundamentally new approach and level of security to enterprise work. Island has
introduced the ideal solution for organizations with extremely sensitive data
and applications, to ensure safe operation even on devices beyond the
organization’s control and traditional protections.

“Our customers are many of the largest and most sophisticated financial,
healthcare, industrial, hospitality and technology pioneers in the world,” said
Dan Amiga, Island CTO and Co-Founder. “In these environments, we work closely
with many of the most sophisticated red teams on Earth leveraging the most
advanced techniques at their disposal. This allows us to see first-hand the
challenges they face in securing their employees and extended workforce. We have
carefully studied the attack landscape, and today we are releasing the
industry’s most comprehensive built-in solution protecting the browser against
the most sophisticated attacks.” 

The Island Enterprise Browser defends itself against the majority of known and
unknown web-based and physically-local threats by building in-depth capabilities
to protect attack vectors often used to exploit the browser footprint. By
introducing the Island Self-Protection, Island can help ensure the safe
operation of the browser even within less-than-ideal environments. Island’s
Self-Protection includes capabilities to protect in such areas as: 

 * Protection from Memory, Process and File Exploitation: Advanced browser
   security to prevent exploitation of the installable footprint of the browser.
   This includes advanced techniques to protect the browser’s memory, process
   and file footprint from tampering attempts including anti-debugging tactics.
   Attempts to inject malicious code or tamper with these browser resources
   triggers an immediate audit and, by policy, enforces browser shutdown mode,
   thereby defeating the attack and preventing data exfiltration.
 * Encryption of Browser Resources: Provisions policy-driven encryption of the
   browser’s cache, cookies, password vault, and browser storage. This prevents
   the extraction and reuse of any content from these critical browser data
   stores. 
 * Protection Against Network-Based Attacks: Leverages techniques to detect and
   prevent man-in-the-middle attacks whether from local unsecured or malicious
   Wi-Fi, and a broad range of network-based exploits. Upon detection of
   man-in-the-middle the browser will audit the event and can prevent operation
   until the interception is removed.
 * Keystroke Logging Prevention: Provides advanced capabilities to protect from
   locally installed software keystroke loggers surreptitiously attempting to
   capture a user’s keystrokes. By emulating false physical key presses, Island
   can fill a keystroke logger with garbage data making keystroke captures
   unusable.
 * Screen Capture Prevention: Delivers sophisticated screen capture prevention
   techniques to protect critical application engagements. When a malicious
   effort is made to record or capture screens of critical applications, the
   screens will simply be inaccessible by the screen capture tooling of the
   malicious actor. 
 * Device Integrity Controls: Ensures device meets appropriate organizational
   criteria for accessing critical application footprint. This includes ensuring
   any existing EPP software or other controls are up-to-date.
 * Attack Surface Reduction: Protects critical browser javascript APIs from
   opportunistic exploitation by removing their availability when engaging
   untrusted destinations.  
 * Local Browser Isolation: Governs local mechanics of the browser’s realtime
   compilation mechanics to isolate them from attempts to inject malicious code
   into the browser’s operation.
 * Deep Extension Protection: Ensures proper extension usage via Island
   Extension Guard which governs which extensions can be used, which cannot, and
   how they can be leveraged. This can ensure that a malicious extension cannot
   be leveraged to exploit critical application resources.
 * Hardened Browser Policy: Manages browser capabilities by policy to govern
   proper use of such core browser elements as developer tools, page source
   viewing, user settings, and command line interactions. 
 * User Safe Browsing: In addition to protection of the browser itself, Island
   protects the end users from the dangers of the Internet by delivering
   anti-phishing, URL categorization, threat intelligence & malware inspection.

“The innovation within Island Self-Protection represents a fundamentally new
approach to how organizations with highly valuable data can think of using the
browser as a critical asset within their architecture, and finally begin to stop
attacks at the point of impact,” said Mike Fey, Island CEO and Co-Founder. “The
goal should be to take the victory away from cyber criminals, and we have done
just that with Island’s new capabilities to ensure a safe operating experience
where other browsers fail to do so.”


THE ISLAND ENTERPRISE BROWSER

The Island Enterprise Browser is the desktop of the future, enabling
organizations to protect users and data and embed productivity features at the
very point where they interact with SaaS and internal web applications. Using
the Island Enterprise Browser, security teams fully control the last mile, from
basic protections such as copy, paste, download, upload, and screenshot capture,
to more advanced security demands such as data redaction, watermarking and
multi-factor authentication insertion. This opens up unprecedented opportunities
across a growing number of enterprise use cases, including securing critical
SaaS and internal web applications from data leakage, safe access for
contractors and BYOD workers, and full governance over privileged user accounts.
It also delivers a native user experience for the hybrid worker in contrast to
costly and poor-performing virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI), while
supporting built-in safe browsing, web filtering, web isolation, exploit
prevention, and Zero Trust network access at much lower cost. Automation of
repetitive tasks, customized workflows and frictionless adoption also help
organizations realize significant increases in productivity and user experience.


ABOUT ISLAND

Island is the developer of the Enterprise Browser – the ideal enterprise
workplace, where work flows freely while remaining fundamentally secure. With
the core needs of the enterprise naturally embedded in the browser itself,
Island gives organizations complete control, visibility, and governance over the
last mile, while delivering the same smooth Chromium-based browser experience
users expect. Led by experienced leaders of the enterprise security and browser
technology space and backed by leading venture funds – Insight Partners, Sequoia
Capital, Cyberstarts, and Stripes – Island is redefining the future of work for
some of the largest, most respected enterprises in the world. Island is based in
Dallas with research and development in Tel Aviv and can be reached at
