Case Study: Multinational Investment Banking and Financial Services Company prevents data breaches and closes 14 exposures with UpGuard BreachSight

Financial Institution Adopts UpGuard for Breach Detection

The Multinational Investment Banking and Financial Services Company, a global provider of banking, wealth management and investment services, had recently suffered a data breach and sought to prevent it from happening again. They engaged UpGuard and evaluated the UpGuard BreachSight data leak detection service to continuously discover, assess and remediate exposures across their own systems and third‑party vendors.

UpGuard onboarded the customer, used provided and discovered keywords to run exhaustive searches across 70+ exposure vectors, and combined automated scans with analyst review. BreachSight returned over 92,000 keyword-based results and identified 14 medium-to-high severity data exposures that UpGuard worked with the customer to assess and close, preventing a full-scale breach and enabling 24x7 monitoring of future leaks.
