Case Study: a leading credit reporting agency strengthens security across 40+ applications with Virtru

a leading credit reporting agency secures 40+ applications with Virtru after a $1.3 billion breach response

A major credit reporting agency faced a significant data breach, leading to a $1.3 billion investment in security improvements and a requirement to replace its previous provider, HP Voltage. The agency needed a robust solution to protect sensitive data across its operations and meet strict compliance requirements like ITAR and PII, all while working to rebuild customer trust. They selected Virtru's secure email platform, specifically the Virtru Gateway, to address these challenges.

Virtru implemented its Data Protection Gateway, which was integrated across over 40 applications including microservices, APIs, and secure file sharing systems. This provided the agency with robust encryption, data loss prevention capabilities integrated with Symantec, and a user-friendly interface. The solution from Virtru enabled the agency to securely protect sensitive data, ensure compliance, and successfully rebuild trust with its customers and partners.
