Unlike traditional PAM solutions that create friction through jump servers and virtualized environments, Island embeds all privileged access controls directly into the browser — eliminating the need for separate PAM appliances, gateways, or complex backend systems while providing the same level of protection. Island delivers PAM capabilities at the UI: everything from an approval process that didn't exist before to MFA to full audit and recording. Privileged users work in familiar applications with no performance degradation, while security controls operate transparently in the background.

Island enables you to implement the principle of least privilege at the browser level through advanced last-mile controls that protect data at the actual point where privileged users interact with it. Apply the principle of least privilege by hiding controls that aren't needed for a given role. Key capabilities include keystroke-level protection that prevents typing sensitive data into unauthorized applications, copy-paste governance that blocks data movement outside approved boundaries, selective print and screenshot controls for sensitive information, and intelligent watermarking that automatically marks screens with user identity and timestamp data for deterrence and forensics.

These cross-application policies work consistently across web and desktop applications without requiring source code modifications, and can be applied dynamically based on user role and data sensitivity.

Island lets you audit and log all browser activity within any application session, including high-fidelity screenshots and click tracking. You can then share that data with your analytics platforms for the complete picture of all privileged user activity. Island captures every interaction at the browser level (clicks, keystrokes, screenshots, data access patterns, etc.) and provides this information in real-time dashboards, or you can export it to your existing SIEM and analytics platforms. Because this takes place natively in the browser as users interact with applications, there is no impact on the application itself performance-wise.

Yes. Island provides comprehensive last-mile controls to prevent data exfiltration regardless of privilege level. You can fine-tune Island to block users from copying sensitive data, taking screenshots, downloading files, or sharing data to a personal email, all without impeding legitimate work functions.

Eliminate the threat of single-actor changes by adding an external approval workflow and strengthen your authentication flow with an MFA challenge attached to any action or workflow. Island can insert approval steps and MFA challenges into any web application workflow immediately, without requiring API access, vendor cooperation, or application modifications. This means you can add governance to legacy systems, SaaS applications, or any web-based admin console within hours, not months.

The Enterprise Browser tracks user actions every step of the way (when they accessed shared accounts, what actions they performed) and provides detailed session recordings. Even when multiple administrators use the same credentials for legacy systems, Island maintains a complete audit trail tied to individual identities, ensuring full accountability and compliance.

Island provides universal privileged access management that works consistently across all web-based applications, whether they're SaaS platforms like Salesforce and AWS consoles or internal web applications. Controls are applied universally, enabling users to safely access data and resources anywhere, on any device. The same policies, audit capabilities, and controls work seamlessly across your entire web-based infrastructure without requiring separate tools for different environments.

Log every action taken by a privileged user and build a complete audit record. Island automatically captures all required compliance data for frameworks like SOX, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and others. The comprehensive audit trails include user identity, device information, application context, specific actions taken, and timestamps - all available through pre-built compliance reports or exported to your existing audit systems. This eliminates the manual effort typically required to demonstrate privileged access controls during audits.
