Case Study: Regional Commercial Bank strengthens security and stops phishing attacks with McAfee

Integrated Security Architecture Transforms Commercial Bank’s Security Posture

Regional Commercial Bank, a US financial institution with about 1,500 endpoints across headquarters and branch locations, was struggling with multiple siloed security tools that limited visibility, complicated compliance with FFIEC, GLBA, Sarbanes-Oxley, and HIPAA, and couldn’t keep up with increasingly sophisticated advanced threats and risky employee behavior. To simplify and strengthen its defenses, the bank turned to McAfee and its integrated security platform, including McAfee Enterprise Security Manager, McAfee Complete Endpoint Protection—Enterprise, and related threat defense and intelligence products.

McAfee implemented an interconnected security architecture that tied together endpoint protection, SIEM, advanced threat defense, and threat intelligence sharing so systems could communicate and respond more effectively. The results included faster deployment, minimal maintenance, better event correlation, quicker response and remediation, and a more sustainable defense against advanced threats. In one month alone, McAfee blocked multiple sophisticated zero-day phishing attacks, saving support teams over 100 hours of work while preventing broader infection and reducing remediation to a single reimaged PC.
