Case Study: Momentive achieves smarter data loss prevention with McAfee and TITUS

Momentive Implements Smarter Data Loss Prevention with TITUS and McAfee

Momentive, a global leader in specialty chemicals and materials, needed to better protect its intellectual property and improve information security across the organization. The company already had data labeling policies in place, but it needed a more consistent way to classify sensitive documents and ensure they were handled correctly. McAfee Data Loss Prevention was part of the environment, and Momentive sought to enhance it with classification.

McAfee, working with TITUS Classification for Microsoft Office, helped Momentive add persistent visual labels and metadata to Office documents so DLP policies could be enforced more accurately. The solution reduced the risk of data loss, improved consistency in classification, and enabled McAfee DLP to stop actions like printing or emailing highly sensitive documents. The result was a better, more user-friendly DLP program with stronger protection for intellectual property.
