Case Study: Global Bank reduces lateral risk by 97% with Zymr Zero Trust transformation

Global Bank cuts lateral movement risk by 97% with Zymr

The client, a tier-1 global bank, faced significant security challenges due to its reliance on a legacy VPN, which created broad network access and limited visibility. Partnering with Zymr, the bank sought to modernize its security posture with a scalable Zero Trust architecture to reduce lateral movement risk and meet stringent compliance requirements like NIST 800-207.

Zymr implemented a comprehensive Zero Trust solution, which included replacing VPNs with Zscaler for Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), deploying Okta for identity governance, and implementing CyberArk for privileged access management. This transformation resulted in a 97% reduction in lateral movement risk and $8 million in annual VPN cost savings for the global bank.
