Case Study: Signify protects intellectual property with CybelAngel

Signify Secures Data Leak Protecting Intellectual Property

Signify, a global leader in lighting and IoT with 38,000 employees across 70 countries, needed to protect sensitive intellectual property from employee-driven data leaks. In a highly competitive market, the company faced the risk of project files and design documents being stored on personal servers, USB drives, and cloud accounts outside IT control, creating serious compliance, legal, and competitive exposure. CybelAngel helped Signify address this challenge.

CybelAngel’s digital risk protection platform continuously scanned the web for exposed files and connected devices, then filtered billions of records down to actionable, high-confidence alerts with detailed incident context. As a result, Signify was able to quickly identify and remove leaked project files, prevent millions of dollars in potential legal and privacy violations in the first month, reduce incident response time, and discover previously unknown unsecured connected devices.
