The Secure Workspace for Remote Work
Blue Border™ gives IT a simpler, device-agnostic way to secure remote work, enable contractor and BYOD workforces, govern AI usage and replace VDI.
A simpler, device-agnostic way to secure remote work
In today’s AI era, organizations face mounting pressure to onboard and enable anyone, anywhere, on any device – while IT remains fully accountable for security and compliance. This is the defining problem modern IT teams face: unlimited business flexibility vs. security and compliance. Venn exists to resolve that tension – enabling companies to embrace workforce agility without compromising security or compliance. Freedom without compromise.
This is why Venn created Blue Border™. With Blue Border™, work runs locally inside a company-controlled secure enclave on the user’s PC or Mac – without VDI or fully controlling the endpoint. The result is reduced infrastructure costs, maximum workforce agility, secure AI adoption, reduced IT complexity and an improved user experience .
Blue Border™
- Approved AI tools only
- Company apps and data
- DLP + clipboard control
- Audit logs and visibility
- Governed across all devices
VS
Personal Side (Untouched)
- Personal AI tools (ChatGPT, etc.)
- Personal files and email
- No IT monitoring or intrusion
- User privacy fully preserved
- Work and personal stay separate
The AI governance and security layer for devices you don’t manage
Blue Border governs AI usage from inside the secure enclave – enforcing controls at the application and data layer, so IT governs the interactions themselves: controlling what AI tools can be used, what specific tenants can be accessed, and what data can be copied, pasted, uploaded, or entered into an AI tool.
Set policy once and it applies consistently across every worker’s device, whether managed or unmanaged — approved AI tools stay productive, unsanctioned AI tools never interact with company data. Plus, personal AI use outside the enclave stays private.
A simpler, device-agnostic way to secure remote work
- Any worker.
FTE, contractors, consultants, BPO users – all enabled securely - Any device, any ownership model.
Company-issued, third-party, or personal / BYOD devices - Any application.
Browser-based apps and locally installed applications - Any AI workflow or tool.
Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot and Cowork, browser-based and desktop AI alike – sanctioned, governed, and safe to use with company data.
What happens in Blue Border™ stays in Blue Border™
All business activity inside Blue Border™ – company data, applications, networking, and AI workflows – is protected and isolated from any other use on the same computer – visually marked by a blue line wrapped around those application windows.
Outside Blue Border, user privacy is preserved and IT has no visibility or control over any personal activity on that same device.
Simplified Administration
Blue Border™ does not require any backend infrastructure, so companies can onboard and offboard remote employees and contractors in minutes. Centralized administration simplifies management, offering complete visibility and control over your BYOD workforce.
With Blue Border™, you can gain real-time insights into user activity, so you always know where, when, and from what device a user accessed an app or sensitive data.
100% Application Performance
Unlike virtual desktops, users work with native installed applications running locally. Blue Border™ protects any installed work-sanctioned app including Chrome, Adobe, Slack, Microsoft Office applications, web conferencing tools like Zoom and Teams, VOIP applications, CAD and design tools, SAP, custom business applications and more.
Users can seamlessly toggle between application use within Blue Border™ and their personal use. This ensures a smooth and secure user experience.
Built-In User Privacy
Venn keeps personal activity completely separate and private. Anything outside of Blue Border™ can’t be seen, tracked, or monitored by the company or Venn.
Legacy solutions like VDI or traditional device management can be frustrating for users. These solutions often lead to risky workarounds because users feel their natural workflows are being interfered with and their privacy potentially invaded. Blue Border™ was built with user privacy in mind.
Purpose built with the highest standards
Venn was built to comply with the strictest cybersecurity standards including:
- SOC 2 Type II
- HIPAA
- SEC
- FINRA
- NAIC
- NYS DFS
- Mass 201 CMR 17.00
- CMMC
- PCI
How Blue Border™ works
When a user launches a work application, Blue Border puts a blue line around the application window – providing a clear visual indicator to the end user. That blue line means the application is running inside the secure enclave, which acts like a firewall, enforcing DLP and controlling what data can go in and out.
Users authenticate into Venn on their unmanaged Mac or PC.
Users launch work-sanctioned apps that run locally inside Blue Border.
Work apps and data are contained within a company-managed Secure Enclave.
All data is encrypted and corporate policies (HIPAA, FINRA, SEC, PCI, etc.) are actively enforced.
Existing approaches for securing remote work are breaking
That is why Venn built something better.
