Case Study: Global Oil & Gas Organization achieves secure control of commercially sensitive emails and SharePoint data with Fortra

Safeguarding Commercially Sensitive Data For Major Energy Organisation

A multinational oil and gas company operating across five continents faced growing risk of commercial data leakage from vast volumes of current and legacy emails, large attachments and SharePoint content used internally and shared with partners. With plans to expand collaboration and archive historic data, the business needed low‑overhead, easy‑to‑manage controls for labeling and protecting sensitive information that would integrate with its Symantec email security stack and provide UK‑aligned support.

The company deployed the Boldon James Classifier suite (Email, OWA and SharePoint Classifiers) across the organization. The solution tightened control over email and document handling, raised staff awareness of information sensitivity, and delivered demonstrable compliance and improved ROI across DLP, encryption, archiving, e‑discovery and information rights management.
