Case Study: Gem achieves PCI compliance and stronger data security with Very Good Security

GEM saves up to $1 million with Very Good Security

The customer, Gem, a cryptocurrency startup, faced the challenge of securely handling sensitive user and PCI data. Despite an in-house solution, they were liable for potential data breaches and needed a more robust security posture. They partnered with vendor Very Good Security to implement its data protection service as a second layer of security.

Very Good Security built its solution on the AWS infrastructure, using data aliasing to collect and redact sensitive information before it reached Gem's systems. This created a secure second layer of defense, protecting customer data and mitigating liability. The implementation allowed Gem to achieve compliance efficiently and provided peace of mind, with the CEO stating it gave them a "stamp of security" that made customers feel more secure.
