Case Study: a multinational professional services company protects SAP financial data and meets compliance requirements with Secude’s HaloCORE

How a multinational professional services company uses Secude’s HaloCORE to protect financial data downloaded from SAP and certify its financial statements

a multinational professional services company with over 700,000 employees faced the challenge of securing sensitive financial data downloaded from its SAP systems. The company needed to protect this data from accidental leaks and rogue actors, particularly during closed accounting periods, and to meet strict regulatory requirements like the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Its existing security solutions did not protect content once it was extracted from the SAP application.

Secude implemented its HaloCORE solution, which automatically protects SAP data downloads by embedding Microsoft Purview Information Protection directly into the application layer. This provided lifelong encryption and access control for files, even when shared outside the company's network. As a result, the company prevented damaging data breaches, secured its data during critical periods, and streamlined its compliance with audit requirements, protecting its multi-billion dollar brand reputation.
