Case Study: DC Advisory prevents misdirected emails and protects client data with Proofpoint

DC Advisory - Customer Case Study

DC Advisory is a mid-market corporate finance firm specializing in cross-border transactions that must protect highly sensitive client data in a tightly regulated environment. They were particularly concerned about the risk and reputational damage from accidentally emailing confidential information to the wrong recipient and wanted a solution that would intelligently prevent misdirected emails with minimal disruption to users.

They adopted Tessian’s Human Layer Security platform, deploying Tessian Guardian and Constructor to automatically detect and block misdirected and non‑compliant emails using stateful machine learning. Tessian’s initial threat report showed Guardian successfully detected and prevented misdirected emails, removing that risk from the organization while remaining non‑obtrusive to employees.
