Case Study: Leading Global Human Capital and Management Consulting Firm secures data across Europe with Thales e-Security

Leading Global Human Capital and Management Consulting Firm - Customer Case Study

Leading Global Human Capital and Management Consulting Firm handles more than 70 million customer interactions each year across Europe, managing sensitive human resource records under strict privacy and access-control requirements. As it planned to consolidate parts of its Pan-European operations, it needed a data protection approach that could support EU and worldwide compliance, protect against data theft or improper transfer, and help it meet obligations under the UK Data Protection Act, the EU Data Protection Directive, and the USA PATRIOT Act. Thales e-Security’s Vormetric solution was selected to address those needs.

Thales e-Security implemented Vormetric Encryption and data security controls across a heterogeneous environment for structured and unstructured data. The rollout took just one month and was completed during scheduled database maintenance, with extremely minimal impact on operations and no material degradation in performance. The solution also helped the firm monitor data movement, simplify separation of duties, and support compliance with the UK Data Protection Act and the EU Data Protection Directive.
