Case Study: Swiss Private Bank achieves secure, efficient remote access and full-disk protection with WinMagic SecureDoc

Swiss Private Bank - Customer Case Study

Swiss Private Bank, one of the largest private banking firms in Europe with 20 offices across 15 countries, needed to simplify and speed up remote access while maintaining airtight protection of sensitive data on nomadic devices. After evaluating full-disk encryption options to replace a cumbersome two‑network topology and to ensure stolen laptops could not provide unauthorized access, the bank selected WinMagic’s SecureDoc Enterprise with smart card integration to meet its strict security and usability requirements.

WinMagic implemented SecureDoc with pre‑boot full‑disk encryption and seamless integration to the bank’s smart card/PKI infrastructure, plus tools that simplified enterprise deployment. As a result, the bank consolidated two previously separate networks into a single secure network accessible remotely from one laptop, improved user efficiency without complicating log‑ons, and ensured that even if a laptop is lost or stolen it cannot be used to access internal systems or data. WinMagic also provided rapid support and customization during rollout to meet the bank’s high security standards.
