Case Study: Leading Financial Services Firm Secures Sensitive Mortgage Data with Cyera

How Cyera helped a mortgage lender secure and manage sensitive data

Leading Financial Services Firm, a leading publicly traded mortgage lender and servicer, needed better control over the vast amounts of sensitive consumer data it stores across AWS, Snowflake, Google Drive, and hybrid cloud environments. To support GLBA compliance and reduce risk, the company had to manage social security numbers, bank account details, loan information, and credit history at scale, but its existing tools relied on manual discovery that was slow, incomplete, and inaccurate.

Cyera was deployed in minutes to discover and classify 3,000+ datastores, giving the security team continuous visibility into sensitive data, excessive permissions, and data drift from production into test and development environments. With Cyera, the firm improved data discovery, strengthened protection through better governance and encryption support, and gained the information needed to reduce exposure and help meet GLBA requirements across more than 4 million homeowners’ data.
