Case Study: Manufacturing Company protects customer IP with Illusive

Manufacturing Company - Customer Case Study

Manufacturing Company, a global Industry 4.0 manufacturer, turned to Illusive to better protect customers’ intellectual property amid rising targeted cyberattacks. The company needed help detecting and preventing breaches of proprietary designs and know-how that could damage its reputation.

Illusive deployed deceptive fileshares as part of its deception-based security approach, which quickly triggered an alert when an employee tried to access a fake customer share. Illusive’s forensic evidence helped investigators identify the user’s suspicious activity and uncover six months of data exfiltration via PowerPoint files to bypass DLP controls, giving the company the visibility needed to stop the breach and mine related SIEM and DLP logs.
