Case Study: Fortune 100 Telecommunications Provider blocks millions in data risk with Forcepoint DLP

Fortune 100 Telecommunications Provider blocks 200,000 data violations in 2 months with Forcepoint

The customer, a Fortune 100 telecommunications provider, faced the challenge of safeguarding its sensitive customer data and valuable intellectual property without slowing down its high-speed business growth and innovation. After a previous data breach, the company turned to vendor Forcepoint to implement a Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solution that could protect its data while maintaining a frictionless user experience.

Forcepoint implemented its DLP endpoint technology, which included real-time employee coaching via pop-up alerts. This solution successfully blocked over 200,000 data violations in its first two months, avoiding millions of dollars in risk monthly. Forcepoint's partnership also led to a 34% reduction in sensitive data movement and fewer false positives, allowing the security team to focus on truly risky activities.
