Case Study: Global Trading Firm achieves unmatched Linux threat detection and no-downtime operations with Forcepoint Threat Protection for Linux

Global Trading Firm - Customer Case Study

This leading, quantitative global trading firm with 500 employees across North America, Europe and Asia faced targeted attacks on thousands of Linux systems and found its existing security tools lacked the detection capabilities needed to identify evolving Linux malware. The firm needed a scalable way to detect advanced threats across its Linux estate without degrading performance or stability, and to quickly determine the scope of any intrusion.

After evaluating the market, the firm deployed Forcepoint Threat Protection for Linux, which provides deep, real-time visibility into software in memory—from kernel to user-mode—and reliably detects rootkits, backdoors and unauthorized processes. The solution runs without impacting system performance, is managed from a single dashboard for faster detection and remediation, and has delivered improved operational awareness, high customer satisfaction and long-term confidence in the firm’s Linux security posture.
