Hybrid Ising superconductor-ferromagnetic insulator heterostructures providea unique opportunity to explore the interplay between proximity-inducedmagnetism, spin-orbit coupling and superconductivity. Here we use a combinationof first-principles calculations of NbSe$_{2}$/CrBr$_{3}$ heterostructures andan analytical theory of Ising superconductivity to analyze the existingexperiments and provide a complete explanation of highly nontrivial and largelycounterintuitive effects: an increase in the magnitude of the superconductinggap accompanied by the broadening of the tunneling peaks; hysteretic behaviorof the tunneling conductance that sets in $\approx 2$ K below $T_c$; andnematic symmetry breaking in the superconducting state. The microscopic reasonin all three cases appears to be the interplay between the proximity-inducedexchange splitting and intrinsic defects. Finally, we predict additionalinteresting effects that at the moment cannot be addressed experimentally:spin-filtering when tunneling across CrBr$_{3}$ and tunneling ``hot spots'' inmomentum space that are anticorrelated with regions where the spin-orbitsplitting is maximum.
