Deployments

A global insurance organisation ran a GDPR driven Data Discovery and Governance project.  They wanted to gain visibility of their unstructured and stale data. One particular reason for this was to help them reduce the costs of unnecessary storage space, to then archive or delete the data correctly. The Data Discovery product deployed helped with the later challenge as well as remediating risks from group level access ensuring that only the employees needing to access certain data would have access to that group/data.

Global Insurance Organisation

An interface for an international Insurance Company was required to enable their customers to complete online forms and upload insurance documents that would share relevant information securely with third-party brokers on a strict policy.

We implemented a secure File Transfer solution for the main platform and built bespoke scripts for the customer to run automated background tasks.

International Insurance Company

In one adopting organisation, an insider threat was detected through isolating a series of uncharacteristic behaviours.

An admin user logged into a critical server using a functional account which raised the alarm. Then using IP attribution to identify the true identity of the inside threat, the company was able to cancel the individual’s contract and instigate legal proceedings against the offender.

A Serious Insider Threat
