Case Study: Sanyo achieves enterprise-wide IP protection while preserving innovation and workforce flexibility with Dtex Systems

Protection of IP Across Regional Users in R&D, Manufacturing, Sales, and Distribution

Sanyo Electric Co. Ltd., a Fortune 500 company with over 100,000 employees across more than 200 operating entities, needed to protect high-value intellectual property used throughout R&D, manufacturing, sales and distribution. The challenge was to prevent IP loss or theft across regional users without imposing overly restrictive controls that would stifle innovation and day-to-day productivity.

Sanyo selected Dtex to identify and prevent high‑risk activities, enabling targeted protection of IP while preserving a flexible working environment. The Dtex deployment allowed Sanyo to raise security standards and reduce exposure to data loss and theft across its global organization without locking down legitimate employee workflows.
