Case Study: a private Swiss bank strengthens data security and compliance with Forcepoint DLP

Private Swiss Bank doubles staff while strengthening data security with Forcepoint

A private Swiss bank faced the challenge of meeting strict FINMA data security regulations while supporting its rapid growth. The bank needed to prevent accidental or malicious data loss, especially as its staff had nearly doubled, increasing the risk to sensitive customer and proprietary information. To address this, the bank turned to Forcepoint and implemented its Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solution.

Forcepoint DLP provided a centralized yet customizable system that allowed the bank to control data down to the endpoint and comply with various international regulations. The solution prevented data from being emailed or copied to external media and replaced manual file reviews with systematic scans. As a result, Forcepoint significantly improved the bank's data security posture, sensitized employees to handling information, and became a key component of its security architecture, helping to secure the institution's long-term reputation.
