Perimeter defences are no longer sufficient

“A fortress mentality will no longer work in cyber. We cannot retreat

behind a Maginot Line of firewalls.” - William J Lynn III, US Deputy Defense Secretary

Threat at home more damaging than external threat

Click to edit Master title style Customer Case Study

Example from a global energy company…

Background

Management concerned about accidental release of commercially-sensitive content

Decision already taken to enhance collaboration and information sharing

Focus on brand and employee protection

The Challenge

Stretched archiving procedures & reduced storage costs

Wide spectrum of data types and sources to consider - including surveys, financials, energy production projects

Lack of knowledge about what data was being stored in tools like SharePoint and Symantec

Discover what data they had and define a data classification policy
