Case Study: Turkish Airline achieves secure cloud migration and data protection with Forcepoint

Forcepoint Helps This Turkish Airline Move to the Cloud as Safely as it Flies in the Clouds

This large, technology-forward private Turkish airline—serving over 30 million passengers and pioneering low-cost air travel in Turkey—faced growing security risks as employees worked remotely from hotels, restaurants, and airports. Increased reliance on wireless and cloud services left the company vulnerable to malicious plug-ins and potential breaches of sensitive customer data, creating exposure under strict EU GDPR and Turkish data‑protection rules.

The airline migrated its on‑premises Forcepoint Web Security to Forcepoint Web Security Cloud (proof of concept in two days), extending enterprise-grade protection to remote and roaming users while eliminating hardware costs and reducing maintenance. The cloud rollout improved productivity by preventing malware incidents, delivered automatic upgrades and scalable high availability, and—when combined with Forcepoint DLP—documented over 400 TB of data in 90 days; Forcepoint solutions are now considered strategic across the business.
