When Capitalize went looking for a security solution, the requirements were straightforward: protect sensitive financial data across 75 remote agents in the US and Philippines, maintain SOC 2, and don't let the security layer become a daily operational problem. Azure Virtual Desktop was supposed to do that.  Instead, every morning started with a gamble – would agents actually be able to connect? Sessions dropped, tickets piled up, and the workarounds keeping people online were putting pressure on the very security boundaries AVD was meant to enforce. They replaced it with Blue Border™. What changed: → Infrastructure costs dropped 67% → Daily connectivity failures went to near zero → SOC 2 compliance held through the next audit — no virtual desktop required.

Latency, complexity, and cost: VDI’s classic villains – and the reason so many teams are reevaluating legacy virtual desktop models. Our eBook explains what’s shifting in the industry and how organizations are securing company data on unmanaged laptops without the usual VDI baggage 👇 hubs.ly/Q04kgyCD0 #VDIAlternative #SecureRemoteWork #RemoteAccess

Contractor workforces often span devices IT doesn’t own, can't touch, and can't force a security stack onto; and the tools most organizations reach for weren't built for that reality. In this clip, Venn CEO David Matalon breaks down what actually breaks first when you try to apply traditional endpoint controls to a contractor workforce.  Spoiler: it's not just one thing.  Privacy concerns block adoption before security teams even get involved. And VDI, still the fallback for many, brings its own baggage: slow, complex, and costly enough to make the tradeoff hard to justify. There's a better way to secure work on unmanaged devices.  Learn more: hubs.ly/Q04kgrBb0  #BYOD #SecureBYOD #VDIAlternative #ThirdPartySecurity #InformationSecurity

"If you have contractors in your workforce that are leveraging BYOD, you need to pick Venn." William Worthington, Co-Founder and CISO at Grizzly Information Security Solutions, works with clients whose compliance obligations leave no margin for error: FINRA, SOC 2, BYOD-heavy workforces. He needed a solution that didn't involve shipping company hardware to every contractor. With Venn, William helped his client gain the endpoint visibility, company data protection, and audit-ready controls they needed – without the overhead of a full device rollout. Faster deployment. Lower cost. A CISO who sleeps a little better at night.

What happens when your workers input sensitive company data into AI tools? Most organizations already know it's happening. The ones getting ahead are the ones doing something about it. With Venn, tools like Gemini run inside Blue Border™, where your DLP policies are enforced and company data stays protected. Personal AI use on the same device stays completely outside – isolated from business data, private to the user. Your team gets to experiment. Company data stays protected.

When traditional security controls don't fit, most companies fall back on one of two options: 1️⃣ Ship out company-owned laptops. Slow, expensive, and nearly impossible to scale across a global contractor workforce. 2️⃣ VDI. Complex to deploy, heavy on data center resources, and frustrating for end users; remotely hosted apps, degraded video and voice, limited flexibility. It's why you're hearing more about VDI reduction than VDI adoption. 3️⃣ Blue Border™. A secure enclave that lives on the employee's own device; no shipped hardware, no data center bottlenecks, no friction.

Telehealth may account for up to 30% of U.S. medical visits in 2026. Behind every one of those appointments is a workforce of coders, billers, insurance specialists, and contractors; most of them remote, hybrid, or offshore, working on devices IT doesn't control. That's the compliance challenge healthcare organizations are facing today. In a new Healthcare IT Today article, CEO David Matalon makes the case that HIPAA compliance was never actually about owning the hardware; it's about keeping sensitive data secure regardless of where the work happens. Shipping managed laptops is too slow. Traditional VDI is too complex. And neither scales with the speed healthcare organizations actually need. The organizations positioned to win in telehealth are the ones that stop treating device ownership as their security strategy.

We're thrilled to welcome Andy Vallila as our Chief Revenue Officer! Andy brings more than 20 years of experience scaling enterprise cybersecurity and infrastructure businesses, and he arrives at exactly the right moment. Demand for modern, frictionless approaches to securing distributed workforces is accelerating, and Andy has a proven track record building go-to-market organizations through periods of rapid growth. The way organizations think about securing remote work is shifting away from legacy VDI and toward approaches that deliver native performance without the latency, complexity, and friction. That's exactly what Blue Border™ was built to do, and Andy is here to help more organizations find it.

When you ban AI tools, people don't stop using them. They just use them on personal devices, personal accounts, outside any visibility your IT team has. Most companies are either banning AI outright… or saying nothing and hoping for the best. Either way, company data is at risk. Blue Border™ fixes that. A company-controlled secure enclave runs apps locally on any unmanaged device – IT controls which company-sanctioned AI tools can be used, company data stays isolated, and workers still get the tools that make them faster. No virtualization, no device management, no personal surveillance. Alexis Bertholf breaks down how it works 👇 #BYOD #SecureBYOD #IT #RemoteWork #InformationSecurity

"If the paradigm for securing data requires securing the entire endpoint, that's extremely constraining today." The tools your teams need are changing faster than your procurement cycle – AI included. New models, applications, and workflows are landing constantly, and your users aren't waiting for IT to catch up. Device-agnostic isn't just a nice-to-have anymore. It's the only architecture that keeps pace with how work actually happens.

VDI costs continue to skyrocket. That’s why companies are moving to Venn. So, what makes Venn different from VDI? Simple: with Venn, everything stays local. Local means work apps and data run (and are secured) on the endpoint - not inside a remotely hosted desktop. With Venn, there is no hosting, streaming or virtualization involved. Apps and data run in a local, secure enclave on the user’s PC or Mac, so you get: 😃 Better user experience: native compute performance, with no VDI latency 📦 Simpler operations: no infrastructure to maintain, patch, or scale 💰 Lower cost: reduced infrastructure and licensing costs Blue Border™ customers switching from VDI can save up to 40% on remote work security costs because you’re no longer paying the virtualization tax. Contractors, consultants, offshore teams and remote employees can securely use any PC or Mac. Learn more here: hubs.ly/Q04g7fY20 #VDIAlternative #RunLocal #InfoSec #IT

AI is now part of how most people live and work – personally and professionally – and the lines between these two worlds are blurring fast. That blurring is exactly where data exposure happens. Below, CEO David Matalon breaks down how Blue Border™ enforces the separation between personal and work AI use on the same device, so company data stays where it belongs, no matter what's running alongside it.

Home networks were never built for enterprise work, but for nearly 36 million remote and hybrid workers in the US, that's exactly where work happens. UC Today's latest article digs into the "last-mile" visibility problem; the moment IT's control ends at the office door and everything beyond becomes a black box. Our CEO, David Matalon, weighed in with a reframe: instead of trying to extend monitoring into employees' home environments – which erodes trust – focus on securing the work itself. IT gets the visibility it needs, and workers keep their privacy. Worth a read if you're navigating hybrid workforce security 👇 hubs.ly/Q04gj8zS0 #RemoteWork #HybridWork #BYOD #InformationSecurity #IT

Save Your Spot 👉 hubs.ly/Q04gcLvj0 When it comes to securing contractors, security and IT leaders are stuck between a rock and a hard place: ship them a laptop (and maybe get it back) or force VDI and tolerate the performance complaints There's a third path - and we're showing it live tomorrow. Join us for our latest Blue Border Live Demo Session, and you'll see: ✅ How a contractor can be onboarded in minutes ✅ DLP, access controls, and compliance policies enforced on unmanaged devices - without VDI ✅ Complete isolation between work and personal activity, so contractors actually accept it See you there!
