Case Study: Fortune 50 Telecommunications Provider blocks 200,000 data violations and cuts risky data sharing 34% with Forcepoint DLP

Customized Data Protection Keeps Up with This High-Speed Enterprise

This Fortune 50 global telecommunications company racing to 5G faced a stark trade-off: move fast to market or lock down sensitive customer data and intellectual property. After a customer-data breach that its prior DLP missed, the security team needed a way to protect data without slowing innovation across hundreds of thousands of endpoints.

They partnered with Forcepoint to deploy a tuned, endpoint DLP that combines real-time employee coaching pop-ups with ongoing policy calibration. In the first two months it blocked more than 200,000 data violations (avoiding an estimated millions of dollars in risk), cut risky data sharing by 34%, reduced false positives, and freed security staff to focus on strategic priorities.
