Case Study: HDFC (Housing Development Finance Corporation) achieves reduced costs and advanced web-threat protection with Zscaler

HDFC - Customer Case Study

HDFC Ltd., India’s largest home mortgage company with over 3 million customers and more than 333 offices, needed a more efficient way to secure web traffic across a large geographic footprint. Its legacy solution routed all traffic to a central HQ gateway for signature- and URL-based scans, which was costly to maintain, difficult to manage and ineffective against advanced Web 2.0 threats, botnets and malicious active content.

HDFC moved to Zscaler’s cloud-based web security to enforce granular, AD-integrated policies and real-time, byte-level inspection for users on any device or location, forwarding gateway traffic to the Zscaler cloud. The deployment reduced infrastructure complexity and management overhead, improved protection against malware, botnets and phishing, and provided consolidated reporting and greater operational confidence.
