Case Study: BuzzFeed achieves secure, seamless content governance with Egnyte

IT Monitors Company Content, Keeping Projects Secure

BuzzFeed, a global digital media company with more than 9 billion monthly views across 30 platforms and 18 offices, faced the challenge of protecting rapidly growing volumes of sensitive content—from confidential sources to client deliverables—without disrupting the fast-paced workflows of its reporters, editors and creative teams. As the company doubled in size and relied on many cloud collaboration tools, IT needed to balance agility with governance and reduce accidental exposures caused by employees or partners.

Egnyte was deployed to deliver content classification, automated governance, real-time detection and granular access controls that work with BuzzFeed’s existing apps. The solution gave IT visibility into how content moves, enabled link expirations and automated alerts for exposed files, and met internal compliance needs—reducing accidental risk and securing projects and client work without slowing down content creation.
