About The Customer
Microland is a medium-sized enterprise operating in the computer services industry. The company was facing challenges in managing and controlling data that were subject to regulation. They needed a solution that could provide visibility into data movement within the business, help prevent potential data breaches, and ensure regulatory compliance. The company also wanted a solution that could allow them to safely share data with partners and minimize disruption to users.
The Challenge
Microland, a medium-sized enterprise in the computer services industry, was facing challenges in controlling and managing data that were subject to regulation. The company needed a solution that could effectively discover, control, and limit the usage of regulated data or sensitive intellectual property (IP), even when the data wasn't on the network. The solution also needed to provide visibility into data movement within the business and help prevent potential data breaches.
The Solution
Microland chose to implement Forcepoint DLP, a data loss prevention software solution. The key features of Forcepoint DLP that Microland utilized included the ability to scan files and discover data they didn't know existed, set data loss prevention policies across the network and endpoint one time and from a single console, and follow and limit the usage of regulated data or sensitive IP with automated application of controls even when the data isn't on the network. Microland found the ability to set policies just once using Forcepoint DLP's single console control extremely valuable. They also found Forcepoint DLP superior in effectiveness, ease of use, customer support, transition to the cloud, and price compared to other data loss prevention solutions they had used.

ELI LILLY ADOPTS MICROMEDIA’S ALERT NOTIFICATION SYSTEM
Pharmaceutical production is subject to a strict set of enforced rules that must be adhered to and compliance to these standards is critically necessary. Due to the efforts of WIN 911’s strategic partner Micromedia, Lilly was able to adopt an alarm notification infrastructure that integrated smoothly with their existing workflows and emergency hardware and protocols. These raw energy sources enable the industrial process to function: electricity, WIN-911 Software | 4020 South Industrial Drive, Suite 120 | Austin, TX 78744 USA industrial steam, iced water, air mixtures of varying quality. Refrigeration towers, boilers and wastewater are monitored by ALERT. Eli Lilly identified 15000 potential variables, but limitations compelled them to chisel the variable list down to 300. This allowed all major alarms to be covered including pressure, discharge, quantity of waste water discharged,temperature, carbon dioxide content, oxygen & sulphur content, and the water’s pH.

Digital Transformation of FOSIS through AuraQuantic Platform
The Solidarity and Social Investment Fund (FOSIS), a service of the Chilean Government, was faced with the challenge of standardizing its administrative processes to comply with the new regulatory framework established by the Law of Digital Transformation of the State (LTDE).

It also mandates that all communication related to administrative procedures between different public bodies must be carried out electronically. FOSIS had been using the AuraQuantic platform for over 14 years to automate different internal processes. However, with the introduction of the new LTDE framework, the institution needed to launch an ambitious project to align with the new regulations.

Big risks requires big data thinking: helping clients target and prevent fraud
EY's clients are increasingly seeking growth in markets with higher perceived levels of fraud, bribery, and corruption risk. Regulators and law enforcement bodies are intensifying their activities, leading to significant corporate investment in employee training, policy development, and internal audit procedures designed to raise awareness of anti-fraud or anti-corruption policies. Many companies have also increased the use of more sophisticated, proactive uses of forensic data analytics (FDA) capabilities designed to prevent and detect areas of fraud, waste, and abuse. However, traditional rules-based tests and spreadsheet tools are not effective in managing these risks. EY needed a solution that could help them get ahead of the curve and squash potential threats before they escalate.

Automating Regulatory Compliance: A Case Study on BT's Transformation with Alteryx and PwC
BT Group, the UK’s leading telecommunications and network provider, had to comply with strict reporting regulations due to its public service nature. The company was using over 140 legacy Excel models to run its regulatory processes, a process they named the ‘Cascade’. The Cascade required a large team and took up to four weeks for a single run, and had to be run multiple times before the reports were ready to be published each year. This process was not only time-consuming but also resource-intensive. Additionally, BT faced challenges with cumbersome change control due to complex logic buried deep in cell formulas, making it difficult to audit changes in Excel. The risk of errors was high with 140 complex Excel models, and even very small errors needed to be reported to regulators. Knowledge management was also a challenge as Excel isn’t the best tool for annotation and knowledge transfers, especially with 1,500 unique data inputs requiring specific methodologies.
