Case Study: Grupo Bancolombia achieves data loss prevention and regulatory compliance with Forcepoint Web Security

Grupo Bancolombia - Customer Case Study

Grupo Bancolombia, the largest bank in Colombia with 140 years of history and more than 9 million customers, faced a growing web-security challenge: protecting business applications and 15,000 employees from malware and risky web use while preserving bandwidth and the end-user experience. The bank needed granular policy control to allow appropriate Internet use (including social networks) without disrupting daily operations or compromising regulatory compliance.

Bancolombia upgraded to Forcepoint Web Security, running a pilot for quick, transparent deployment and consolidating controls into a single console. The solution blocked malware, phishing and data leakage, prioritized business traffic, enabled safe use of social media, improved productivity, reduced information-loss costs, and delivered consistent forensics and compliance across headquarters, branches and mobile users.
