Case Study: a Fortune 500 asset manager secures cloud data with Forcepoint ONE

Fortune 500 Asset Manager secures $250 billion in client assets with Forcepoint

A Fortune 500 asset manager overseeing over $250 billion in client assets needed to assure the security and privacy of its clients' Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and financial information (PIFI) as it deployed public cloud applications like Salesforce, Office 365, and Slack. The challenge was to maintain visibility and control over data usage on both managed and unmanaged devices. The company evaluated every Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) on the market and ultimately chose to implement the Forcepoint ONE platform.

Forcepoint provided an agentless CASB solution that integrated with the firm's existing single sign-on to secure data on unmanaged devices without a VPN. The Forcepoint ONE platform enabled real-time detection and remediation of sensitive data via masking, blocking, or encryption, and it identified risky data flows from shadow IT applications. The investment firm achieved complete governance over data in its cloud applications and gained the ability to secure data both upstream and downstream.
