Modern application security has become a tangled mess of VPNs, proxies, DLP, CASBs, and remote browser tools—all creating friction for users and security teams alike. The root issue? Browsers were built for consumers, not enterprise security, forcing organizations to pile on complexity that undermines both protection and performance.

In this episode, Braden Rogers, chief customer officer at Island, explains how their enterprise browser platform rethinks application delivery by building security services natively into the browsing experience. Joining him are Nick Ryan, former CISO, and Janet Heins, CISO at ChenMed.
