Island for SMBs

Island is a company that builds an enterprise browser, with offices in Dallas, London and Tel Aviv. It addresses the need to secure web and SaaS work on managed and personal devices without separate point tools.

Island for SMBs, listed on the Pax8 Marketplace in June 2026, is a Chromium-based workspace that bundles safe browsing, web filtering, data loss prevention, password management and zero trust network access replacing VPN. It needs no MDM or endpoint agents, includes a central console with role-based access, and is sold through managed service providers.

• Safe browsing: Anti-phishing and web content filtering built into the browser.
• Private Access: Zero trust network access replacing legacy VPN for managed and unmanaged devices.
• Data protection: Controls over copy, download, print and screenshot, including into AI tools.
• AI Browser: Governed chat side panel with multiple AI providers.
• AI Automate: Agent creation with permissions, audit trails and human-in-the-loop options.
• Central console: Role-based access, activity logging and policy enforcement.

An MSP in Vietnam can offer a secure workspace to SME clients with contractor and BYOD staff. A BPO or outsourcing firm can restrict copying and downloading of client data. A company can replace VPN with per-application private access.

Consolidates VPN, web filtering, DLP and password management into one browser workspace. BYOD and contractor onboarding needs no MDM or endpoint agents. MSPs can start a full-featured 14-day trial and receive a 25 percent partner margin. Controls help SMBs support SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001 and GDPR coverage.

Enterprise browsers are becoming a control point for SaaS, BYOD and AI use as work moves into the browser. Vietnamese and Southeast Asian SMEs often rely on MSPs and contractors, and a browser-based approach avoids managing endpoint agents on personal devices.
