Case Study: South African Bank achieves simplified security management and eliminates downtime with Trend Micro

South African Bank Simplifies Security Management and Eliminates Downtime with Trend Micro

A leading South African bank with more than 80 branches faced growing cyber risk after its existing malware solution proved ineffective. Managers had limited visibility into network traffic and couldn’t group or drill down into user activity, and constrained local IT security resources meant slow vendor support—creating the potential for breaches, data loss and costly downtime.

The bank implemented Trend Micro’s integrated security stack (OfficeScan, IWSVA, Mobile Security, iDLP, Deep Discovery Inspector and Control Manager) to centralize control, improve detection and provide full network visibility from a single console. The deployment delivered minimal virus outbreaks and fewer false positives, eliminated downtime during maintenance, and enabled rapid, local support and faster license and incident handling—restoring operational efficiency and stronger protection for customer data.
