Case Study: AmerisourceBergen achieves greater sensitive data visibility with Spirion

STUDYFulfilling healthcare privacy mandates and data protection laws

AmerisourceBergen, a global leader in pharmaceutical sourcing and distribution, faced the challenge of protecting millions of patients' sensitive data across its vast and fragmented systems. The company needed to comply with stringent regulations like HIPAA, GDPR, and CCPA but struggled with knowing what data was leaving its environment. This lack of visibility was a significant hurdle for its cloud security and data protection team.

Spirion provided a solution with its accurate and broad sensitive data discovery software, which worked across multiple platforms including endpoints. This gave AmerisourceBergen greater visibility, automatic classification of data, and the ability to efficiently manage hundreds of terabytes of information. The implementation resulted in noticeable increases in user productivity by automating previously manual tasks and allowed the team to integrate Spirion's classification with their DLP solution for enhanced security controls.
