Case Study: AE Works strengthens ransomware prevention and data security with BlackFog

AE Works Designing better security with Anti Data Exfiltration

AE Works, an architecture and planning firm with a remote workforce, faced significant cybersecurity challenges, particularly a rise in phishing attempts during their expansion. Their IT Manager sought a preventative solution to block attacks and protect critical data. Their cyber insurance vendor suggested they evaluate the anti-data exfiltration technology from BlackFog.

After a two-week trial of BlackFog's solution, AE Works was able to see and block threats in real-time. They were particularly impressed with features like country-level traffic blocking and threat hunting. The company decided to fully deploy BlackFog across all devices, valuing its proactive approach to stopping ransomware and phishing attempts before they could cause harm. The implementation provided immediate results, with the tool blocking ransomware attempts just days after going live, giving the organization greater peace of mind regarding its data security.
