Case Study: WhatsApp achieves automated compliance governance with SafeGuard Cyber

Global Investment Firm Automates Governance for WhatsApp with SafeGuard Cyber

WhatsApp was used by a global investment firm with more than $600B in assets under management to support overseas employees, but the company needed to ensure SEC Rule 17a-4 recordkeeping and comply with other international regulatory requirements across multiple regions. SafeGuard Cyber helped address the challenge of governing business communications on personal devices while preserving employee privacy and supporting rapid deployment.

SafeGuard Cyber provided agentless, 100% coverage of WhatsApp content in its native format, capturing business communications without requiring an app or agent on devices. The solution also integrated with the firm’s existing Global Relay archive, enabling selective archiving of business-only messages and allowing the company to engage clients more authentically in local markets with compliance assured.
