Case Study: A4e secures confidential information sharing with Egress Switch

Leading public service provider A4e secures confidential information shared with partners, subcontractors and customers using Egress Switch

A4e, a UK public service provider with 3,500 employees, needed a way to securely share highly sensitive personal, commercial, and legal information with partners, subcontractors, and customers. As more data was being sent via email and large file transfer, the company wanted an independently assured encryption solution that was easy for users to adopt. A4e chose Egress Switch to meet those needs.

Egress implemented Switch as a one-click email and file encryption platform integrated with A4e’s existing email and IT systems. The solution supported real-time auditing, access controls, and policy-based encryption without disrupting productivity. As a result, A4e improved protection of confidential data, increased user confidence and adoption, and reduced the risk of data loss, regulatory fines, and reputational damage.
