Challenge

This multi-billion dollar bank needed a vendor that could help protect corporate assets and customer information against internal threats in a unique technology environment. At the recommendation of an external audit, the bank sought a unified solution with embedded data loss prevention (DLP) within the web and email gateways to protect against risky employee behavior.

About Customer

This Northern Californian Bank (choosing to remain anonymous) operates as a holding company for a commercial and regional community bank with over 90 branches and 2 trust offices in 21 northern and central California counties. First chartered in the late 1800s, the company has grown into one of the most stable community banks in the nation.

Solution

The bank selected Forcepoint to provide comprehensive data loss prevention on both the network and the end point. TRITON Architecture provides email security, web security, and DLP within a unified architecture. It significantly helps the bank mitigate employee risk. On the production side of the banking infrastructure, which accesses customer information, the Information Security Officer (ISO) uses DLP to control access and monitor the printing of sensitive documents to prevent confidential information from leaving the premises. TRITON Architecture provides source and destination awareness, which enables the ISO to understand who is accessing what kind of data, how it is being used and where it is being transferred.

Impact #1	TRITON Architecture provides source and destination awareness, which enables the ISO to understand who is accessing what kind of data, how it is being used and where it is being transferred.
Impact #2	The ISO can encrypt any data transferred and stored on USB drives and only allow access to the information from another Forcepoint protected computer.
Impact #3	The ISO uses DLP to periodically check the network for client information and receive alerts based on the findings.
