Case Study: Financial Institution thwarts sophisticated ransomware and protects customer PII with Forcepoint DLP, Web & Email Security

Forcepoint Protects Financial Institution from Sophisticated Ransomware

A global financial institution that is part of one of the world’s largest banking groups needed to meet strict data-security and compliance requirements while under intense scrutiny from customers, regulators, and shareholders. Protecting customer PII and preventing advanced multi-stage threats were top priorities.

After a successful proof of concept, the bank deployed Forcepoint DLP (Network and Endpoint), Web Security, Email Security, and Advanced Malware Detection. The solution delivered real-time visibility and actionable guidance, and in production detected and prevented a sophisticated ransomware attack—quarantining every email with the encrypted malicious code and safeguarding customer data.
