Faster Global Deployment  

Teams could securely onboard users anywhere in the world without shipping hardware or maintaining complex infrastructure. Employees gained immediate access to the tools they needed through a lightweight browser deployment model.

Reduced Operational Complexity  

Island consolidated capabilities previously spread across multiple tools, helping reduce hidden IT costs and simplifying security operations.

“Where we had many tools in the past we had to replace, Island bridges that gap,” said Kritzinger.

Improved Governance and Risk Reduction  

Epidemic Sound strengthened oversight of sensitive intellectual property while maintaining a privacy-centric security posture. Security teams gained the visibility they needed without relying on invasive monitoring technologies.

Enabled Continued Business Growth  

Island gave Epidemic Sound the flexibility and scalability needed to support future expansion while meeting the expectations of their owners, the board, and the audit committee.

“Without Island we couldn’t scale our business in the way we do today,” said Börsvik.

Today, Island helps Epidemic Sound focus less on infrastructure and security friction, and more on enabling creators, employees, and artists to move quickly and securely.
