Background

About Eric Newman

After more than two decades in healthcare technology sales, which included transformations like the HITECH Act, Meaningful Use, CPOE, and value-based care (initiatives that did not always make clinicians jobs easier), I joined Island because it gives me a unique opportunity to change that. Now I can support the mission of healthcare by enabling healthcare leaders with innovative technology to improve security posture, reduce operating expenses, and dramatically improve the user experience for clinicians and care teams.At Island I work with health systems, IDNs, and care delivery organizations to reduce reliance on VDI, VPN, CASB, DLP, and other legacy security layers. Our platform modernizes access to Epic, Cerner, telehealth, imaging, and other digital tools from any device. Clinicians get instant, native logins without lag or queues. PHI stays off endpoints with last-mile controls (copy/paste blocks, redaction, application boundaries, session timeouts). It enables and accelerates AI adoption without data leakage risks. Built-in digital experience monitoring tracks performance in real time.The result: reduced clinician burnout, better patient care continuity, stronger HIPAA/HITRUST compliance, and millions in projected infrastructure savings.Open to connecting on secure browser access, PHI protection, digital transformation, clinician productivity, or how we can help your teams do their best work.
