‘Not Just Browsing’: Dallas Cybersecurity Unicorn Island Lands on CNBC’s Disruptor 50
Summary
Island landed at No. 28 on CNBC’s 2026 Disruptor 50, the highest-ranked Texas company and the only Dallas–Fort Worth entrant. Island builds the Island Enterprise Browser and in March expanded into a unified workspace platform that extends its security and IT controls to consumer browsers, desktop apps, and the network. It introduced four AI-focused offerings (AI Protect, AI Browser, AI Automation, AI Publish) and a ‘Perfect Packet’ SASE architecture designed to govern AI sessions while reducing backhaul. Island has raised roughly $730 million to date, including a $250 million Series E led by Coatue in March 2025, and counts large U.S. banks and Fortune 500 companies among its customers.
