Case Study: World’s Largest Brand-Name Apparel Company achieves global data visibility and GDPR compliance with Spirion

Global retailer gains data visibility and protection across stores worldwide

a major brand-name apparel company with over 15,000 employees faced the challenge of protecting vast amounts of sensitive customer and employee data across its global operations. To meet stringent security standards and comply with regulations like GDPR, their new CISO needed to gain visibility into where all PCI and personal data was located and understand the company's risk landscape. They turned to Spirion for a solution.

Spirion provided its data discovery and classification capabilities to locate sensitive data across the enterprise, including in cloud locations and file folders. The solution gave the company precise data locations, persistent classification, and monitoring, which allowed them to proactively mitigate risk and implement strong data governance. By using Spirion, the company was able to define data access rights, tighten security controls, and ensure adherence to strict EU privacy and compliance requirements for its operations in 38 countries.
