Case Study: Top-Five French Retailer achieves true cloud data privacy and GDPR compliance with Virtru

Top-Five French Retailer Requires Additional Security to Ensure True Privacy of Sensitive Data from Cloud Provider

Top-Five French Retailer had migrated to G Suite but needed additional security to keep its most sensitive data truly private from third parties, including its cloud provider. The organization turned to Virtru—Google’s only recommended encryption provider—deploying Virtru’s encryption embedded in Gmail and file‑sharing workflows to protect employee, legal, financial, IT, and product data.

Virtru implemented object‑level, persistent encryption (built on the Trusted Data Format) integrated into the retailer’s existing workflows, preventing unauthorized access—including from Google—while maintaining ease of use to drive adoption. As a result, Virtru gave the retailer full control of sensitive data, helped meet GDPR compliance requirements, and protected the brand and bottom line by enabling secure collaboration across the organization.
