Case Study: The Washington Savings Bank cuts recurring costs and simplifies endpoint security with BeyondTrust PowerBroker Endpoint Protection Platform

The Washington Savings Bank Cuts Recurring Costs with PowerBroker Endpoint Protection Platform

The Washington Savings Bank, a five-branch community bank in Bowie, MD with about 110 endpoint devices and a three-person IT team, was frustrated with rising renewal costs and a fragmented endpoint security stack. Needing intrusion prevention, antispyware, vulnerability scanning and better policy control for remote workers — all while meeting strict financial compliance — the bank found its legacy Symantec solution costly, bloated and time-consuming to manage.

After a pilot, TWSB deployed BeyondTrust’s PowerBroker Endpoint Protection Platform, a lightweight, behavior-based client that consolidated multiple security functions into a single console (with REM for centralized management). Deployment was automated and painless; the bank gained zero-day protection, policy-based remote control, improved endpoint performance and simpler compliance reporting at roughly the same or lower price than the previous AV solution, saving about eight IT labor hours per month and reducing operational overhead.
