Case Study: a major UK financial institution achieves real-time threat-free web downloads with Deep Secure Threat Removal for Web Gateways

Protecting a Major UK Financial Institution from Zero-Day and Undetectable Threats with Threat Removal for Web Gateways

A major UK financial institution needed to protect its over 4,000 users from zero-day threats hidden in web downloads, but its existing sandbox solution was allowing malicious content through and severely impacting productivity with delays of up to 15 minutes. The challenge was to eliminate this threat while enabling rapid, unimpeded access to business information for its users.

The institution deployed Deep Secure's Threat Removal for Web Gateways. This solution extracts valid content from documents and images, discards the originals, and creates new, guaranteed threat-free files in real-time. As a result, user productivity was enhanced with immediate access to safe content, and the solution has proven so effective that the organization is now looking to extend Deep Secure's threat removal technology to other communication flows.
