About Venn
Venn is the leader in workspace security for remote and contractor workforces. Built on Venn's patented technology, Blue Border™ protects company data, applications, and AI workflows on any computer, without VDI and without fully managing the endpoint. Installing Blue Border creates a company-controlled secure enclave directly on the user's Mac or PC. All business activity, including data, applications, networking, and AI workflows, runs locally and stays isolated from personal use, while everything outside the enclave remains private. Blue Border gives IT a simpler, device-agnostic way to secure remote work, enable contractor and BYOD workforces, govern AI usage, and replace VDI. More than 700 security and compliance-driven organizations, including Fidelity, Guardian, Whatnot, and the IMF, trust Venn to meet HIPAA, FINRA, SEC, NAIC, SOC 2, PCI, and GDPR standards.
