Online Gaming Company Betsson Makes a Sure Bet on Data Security with Forcepoint

Betsson, an online gaming company, was facing a significant challenge in protecting its customer data. The company operates in an industry that generates massive international flows of customer and financial data 24 hours a day. Any public leaks of this information would be disastrous for the company's reputation. Furthermore, Betsson's competitors target the same group of customers, making customer email addresses highly valued data. However, the company lacked visibility into data movements surrounding that database. The main threat did not arise from hackers or financial cybercriminals but from the company’s own staff. Some employees were targeted by competitors but others operated alone.

Freedom of Information Act (FOIA)

The Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) has been a gateway for Americans to access data and knowledge maintained by government agencies since the 1960s. However, the system has become a victim of its own success, with over 550,000 requests annually, overwhelming the fifteen U.S. departments and agencies that receive 90 percent of all such requests. The departments were struggling with the timeliness of their responses, effectiveness of their communications and facilitation of information flow to citizens. One department, which received more than 22,000 FOIA requests in fiscal year 2012, was spending an average of 33 days to respond to a request, with 22 of those days devoted to locating the required data. The department was seeking a solution to enhance its search capabilities and reduce response time.

Chelsea and Westminster Hospital Case Study

Chelsea and Westminster Hospital (C&W) in southwest London is a 550-bed facility with a range of specialisms from pediatrics to dementia, serving 120,000 outpatients per year and a further 120,000 through the Accident and Emergency Department. Over 60 staff members help Acting Director of IMT, Bill Gordon, to manage the IT infrastructure and all matters relating to patient records, clinical systems, networks, and desktop hardware. Data security has always been a priority, the hospital is currently the highest rated in the UK for IG (Information Governance), which covers the implementation of data safety and management procedures. C&W was already a Forcepoint customer for web and email security as part of a comprehensive infrastructure that includes firewalls, encryption, and intrusion and hacking detection systems. An annual penetration test is run by NCC, a CESG-approved third party. Gordon says that C&W generally performs very well, encouraging confidence in the technology to steer behavior in the right direction. Nevertheless, the impetus for change was a security breach – the loss of a USB key – which had to be reported to the ICO (Information Commissioner’s Office). The incident had board-level visibility within the hospital that required an immediate response.

Chhattisgarh State Power Companies (CSPC) Case Study

Chhattisgarh State Power Companies (CSPC) faced several challenges with their previous web security solution. The solution would bypass the URL filter, allowing encrypted traffic to run alongside non-encrypted traffic. This meant that if someone accessed an unauthorized site, it would open unchecked, as the platform was unable to filter out undesirable traffic. Additionally, the URL filtering solution didn’t have a proxy. A separate proxy was installed which was integrated with the URL filter. However, since both were separate solutions, there were dependency issues. If one of the solutions had to be upgraded, the other would stop working. This also led to support and management issues. Furthermore, the category database was weak and not very comprehensive, with multiple categories missing. The process of updating the database with a new category was quite complicated.

AUSL Modena Public Healthcare

AUSL Modena, a public healthcare organization in Italy, was facing challenges in detecting and preventing advanced threats that reach their target by web and email.

The bank's objective was to eradicate financial exclusion by offering basic financial services to the low-income population, and to do so, it needed to ensure the security and protection of its data.

AMAG deploys Next-Gen CASB

AMAG Pharmaceuticals, a company that develops and commercializes a therapeutic iron compound to treat iron deficiency anemia, decided to adopt G Suite as the all cloud backbone for the company. This decision was made to enhance productivity as G Suite offers a high performance productivity suite that is flexible and easy-to-use. However, combining BYOD and cloud meant that AMAG lost visibility and control of its data, risking security and compliance. Existing security solutions were not readily applicable to cloud apps and raised privacy concerns, since employees didn’t want IT monitoring their personal cloud apps or mobile devices.

Global Ad Agency Secures Office 365

The ad agency was looking to migrate from an on-premise solution to Office 365 to cut costs and increase employee productivity. However, some of the agency’s large clients, including Microsoft and Walmart, had concerns about the security of their creative assets.

After evaluating several vendors, the agency determined that Bitglass was the only solution that met all their requirements.

Hospital System Achieves HIPAA Compliance with Bitglass

The hospital system, located in the Southeastern United States, was in need of a solution for HIPAA compliance on mobile devices. The Department of Health and Human Services reports that 70% of data breaches in healthcare are the result of lost or stolen devices. The hospital's incumbent mobile security solution, AT&T Toggle, was made obsolete after Google acquired the source company Divide. The hospital's compliance team wanted a replacement that was secure, easy to use, and transparent to users. They were particularly wary of solutions that required software on BYOD. A second criterion for the solution was the ability to support migration to Office 365, which was looming in the near term.

Wall Street Firm Discovers Zero-day Threat

The mid-sized technology company, which provides services to high-value targets on Wall Street, was facing a significant cybersecurity threat. Despite having a high-end 'Next-Gen-Firewall' installed, the firm discovered that ten internal IPs were contacting Malware Command and Control destinations outside the firewall. Some of the internal IPs had multiple malware infections. The firm was an ideal back door for hackers who could inject malware into the service provider, gain access credentials to their customers, and exfiltrate high-value data without being detected. The average breach lasts almost eight months, posing a significant risk to the firm and its clients.

Honda MPE Enhances Data Security with Forcepoint Solutions

Honda Motorcycle and Power Equipment (MPE), a high-profile Australian national company, faced a significant challenge in preventing sensitive data leakages and protecting its user’s access to the Internet. As part of the global Honda brand, Honda MPE had to meet Honda’s global network security standards. The company had experienced several data leakage incidents and needed to control and protect the Internet usage by its staff to ensure that sensitive data was not leaked outside the organization. The IT department at Honda MPE, led by Senior Manager Craig Bassett, was tasked with finding a balance between flexibility and security. They needed a solution that would not restrict their staff from performing their roles but would protect them and Honda from any malicious intent.

Smurfit Kappa Enhances Security and Productivity with Forcepoint

Smurfit Kappa, a leading manufacturer of corrugated and solid board packaging, faced a significant challenge in managing its IT infrastructure. The company's IT division was responsible for managing all servers and domains in the Active Directory of the Smurfit Kappa Group, which ran in two data centers located in Amsterdam and Nieuwegein. The division was also tasked with information security management, dealing with incidents of spam, malware, and data theft or loss. The team was dealing with an average of 350 security incidents per week, a daunting task. Additionally, as a global company, Smurfit Kappa had to comply with Sarbanes-Oxley laws and regulations (SOX), which imposed strict requirements for data storage. The existing solution was high maintenance and required continuous monitoring. The company needed a solution that could delegate responsibilities, reduce tasks for IT operations, and manage 56 email domains and 532 DNS servers across Europe, Russia, South America, and Mexico.

Growth Requires AudioNova to Focus on a Comprehensive Security Solution

AudioNova, a large provider of hearing aids in Europe, was facing challenges due to its rapid growth and expansion to over 1,200 stores throughout Europe. The company had multiple solutions for web and email security on-premises in different regions and locations.

Arizona Financial Crimes Task Force

Transnational criminals launder billions of dollars in illegal proceeds every year. In the Southwest Border affected areas, over half a million humans are smuggled and prescription drugs, illegal drugs and intellectual property are stolen. Law enforcement agencies have been challenged to process and analyze an overwhelming amount of data that pertains to these operations. Parsing and finding the incriminating data in a vast sea of constantly expanding data sources became extremely difficult, as the sheer volume of transaction data far exceeded the capability and volume capacity of typical database software. Due to the limitations and restrictions of the technology, transaction volume became the enemy, and it became harder and harder to detect money laundering patterns across the financial industry. A simple query involving multiple names, addresses or telephone numbers, for example, took hours or days to complete. Enforcement agencies were forced to invest a great deal of time searching through databases, sometimes containing millions of records each, for the suspicious activity they knew lurked among the data. In this timeframe, it was difficult to conceptualize money laundering patterns while remaining a few steps behind the criminals themselves.

Pacific Air Forces (PACAF) and 353d CTS

The Pacific Air Forces (PACAF) and the 353d Combat Training Squadron (353d CTS) operate and manage the premiere joint combat training venue – RED FLAG-Alaska (RF-A). RF-A exercises are held at the Joint Pacific Alaska Range Complex (JPARC) at Eielson Air Force Base and Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson. JPARC is the largest instrumented air, ground, and electronic combat training range in the world. With multiple joint and coalition forces exercises per year, RF-A provides relevant and real-world air and ground combat scenarios with realistic threats and targets. As many as 90 aircraft and 2,000 personnel participate in the RF-A tactical exercises that cover 66,000 square miles of training airspace and 1.6 million acres of often-rugged land in the joint Air Force/Army-managed JPARC. The JPARC encompasses more than $200 million worth of equipment and instrumentation to support warfighter training exercises. In addition to size and cost, PACAF has the added responsibility to ensure that sensitive data is not accessed or leaked to unauthorized parties or systems – especially critical when training multinational coalition forces. To provide the most realistic training for the warfighter, which includes multiple nations and clearance levels, a cross domain solution was needed. To best support the required live, virtual, and constructive (LVC) aspects of the joint training, this cross domain solution had to be near-real time, support a flexible protocol, and be able to obtain an authority to connect (ATC) at the Secret and Below Interoperability (SABI) level.

Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori Case Study

Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori (INT) was spending a large majority of its time completing security-related tasks manually. It also required flexible protection against all risks and malicious software. These are classic security issues for both private and public companies, and these issues will always need to be approached by management in the most innovative way. For INT, threat protection is an essential aspect of that challenge. Bellazzi mentioned “browsing on the move” as his security platform requirement. At its core, this is protecting a mobile workforce on all endpoints. Mobile employees are going to leave the on-premises network at some point. Knowing that, it is crucial for any company to keep its same protocols unified across all endpoints, on-premises or remote.

Italian Healthcare Provider Protects Patient Data While Allowing Lifesaving Information to Circulate Freely

The regional healthcare provider serves millions of patients across seven social-health districts and four hospitals in Italy. As it continues to modernize its IT environment by providing better access to information and incorporating more connected medical devices, its growing cyberattack surface creates new potential entry points for viruses and ransomware—a challenge further complicated by the system’s size and complexity. The organization had already suffered the impact of an environment that wasn’t secure enough when it fell victim to a cryptolocker attack. Its existing proxy server solution for web browsing and email spam-blocking left it vulnerable to system-crippling attacks.

Danieli & C. Officine Meccaniche S.P.A. Case Study

One of Danieli’s key challenges was protecting its intellectual property, specifically its designs for machinery and industrial plants. Moreover, as a public company, Danieli was concerned with protecting its corporate image while providing protection against a quickly evolving and adapting threat landscape. Additionally, the company was looking for a solution that would easily extend the same level of security across all locations with the ability to manage everything from one centralized and unified console. The leadership team realized the need for a Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solution — a solution that would solve all of these issues. The importance of security in other internal company departments was not always at the forefront of people’s minds. Many people have the perception that security is not a priority until after a breach has occurred. The introduction of a DLP solution highlights the significance of handling data that could jeopardize the company if it were in the wrong hands.

National Union of Socialist Mutual Health Insurance

The National Union of Socialist Mutual Health Insurance Funds (SocMut) in Belgium was facing challenges with its on-site email security. The previous solution was implemented locally and required extensive management attention. As users pressed for more flexibility, their demands were met by more and more ad-hoc solutions that stretched management time even further. The organization was increasingly limited by its on-site email security. The criteria for a new solution included cost, security, management, and the knowledge and expertise of the supplier.

Law Enforcement: Providing a Highly Secure and Efficient System

The Law Enforcement agency's mission is to safeguard the United States from a variety of national security and criminal threats. This mission generates an extreme amount of data, of all different types and formats, that is used during investigations and as evidence in prosecuting court cases. This data must be securely captured, analyzed, managed, stored, and available to stakeholders when and where needed. The agency's overarching goal is to modernize its technology infrastructure in support of the mission. Part of this goal is to enhance information sharing both within the agency and with other agencies and organizations. One challenge inherent in the need to efficiently and securely share information is the sheer amount of data that needs to be shared – all with different formats, types, and sensitivities. All data collected, analyzed, and shared by this agency has the added challenge of becoming evidence in complex legal proceedings that can be governed by many different regulations.

Vector Keeps Email Communications Moving Safely with Forcepoint

Vector SpA, an international freight forwarding agent, was facing challenges with its existing antispam software. The software was unable to effectively filter spam messages from the company’s high volume of email. This led to a significant amount of manual analysis required to identify false positives in the quarantined email messages. The company needed a solution that could effectively manage and secure their email communications without slowing down the IT team or the rest of the company’s more than 2,500 employees.

U.S. Department Of Health and Human Services

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) needed a security solution that could effectively protect more than 150,000 users across multiple departments and locations. These users access billions of sensitive data files and interact with the American public through various online communication methods. The challenge was to maintain a high level of productivity while ensuring that the systems and data remain free of malware. The department also needed to balance data security with user access. Doctors and researchers within HHS handle very sensitive health information daily, making collaboration with other researchers worldwide risky without the right security. The department also had to meet the requirements of the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) and implement continuous monitoring of computer systems for security.

Leeds and York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust

In 2010, Leeds & York Partnership NHS Foundation Trust (LYPFT) embarked on a project to manage costs, which affected all facets of the organization. IT budgets were adjusted, leading to a change in web security and the implementation of Cisco IronPort. However, the IronPort solution introduced a number of operational challenges for LYPFT. The level of expertise needed to manage IronPort put a significant and unexpected strain on LYPFT’s IT resources. The IronPort solution also lacked the necessary reporting capabilities—which caused issues between the IT and Human Resources departments because of delays in generating information relating to employee website usage. Aside from reporting, LYPFT needed advanced threat protection from ransomware attacks, a prevalent type of malware that many UK businesses currently face. During that time, LYPFT experienced an uptick of attacks similar to the recent spate of attacks on US healthcare organizations, which successfully targeted a considerable number of LYPFT employees.

Forcepoint's Secure Multilevel Access Solution for Intelligence Community

The Intelligence Community (IC) customer was facing several challenges including crowded desktops, facilities at capacity causing a strain on power, excessive cooling, limited floor space, network proliferation, decreasing annual budgets, and a need for cross domain collaboration. They embarked on an enterprise-wide initiative for a multilevel security solution to support both high-end tactical operations support and low-end administrative users. The complete solution called for a data guard with self-release and reliable (two-person) human review capabilities.

Chilean Bank Gets Proactive on Data Security After Cyberattacks Rock Latin America

The Chilean bank, which primarily caters to high net worth individuals and corporations, decided to get proactive about bolstering its cybersecurity and data loss prevention posture in the wake of 2018’s high-profile cyberattacks targeting Latin American banks. The bank was not affected by these attacks, but the incidents spurred the Chilean government to begin drafting legislation that will require Chile’s banks to comply with certain cybersecurity measures, including data loss prevention. The bank decided to get ahead of the curve to better protect clients and itself, instead of waiting for government regulations to take effect. The bank has been transitioning to the cloud to support remote bank employees and account managers who meet premier clients in their own environments. The bank needs its security solutions to both adhere to coming government data protection legislation and to safeguard the usage of cloud applications and service providers.

Global Logistics Provider Enhances Network Security and Efficiency with Forcepoint

A global logistics provider was seeking an alternative to their multi-protocol label switching (MPLS) service. The customer wanted to boost the productivity of their workforce and lower costs by migrating applications to the cloud; however, doing so would create a large amount of additional traffic that would have to be backhauled to the data centers. This would inevitably cause latency and a subpar user experience. Adding additional MPLS lines would take months to implement and would be a costly solution, especially when considering the vast number of locations. At the same time, the customer’s aging network security devices were unable to provide substantial visibility into their highly distributed network. With warehouses and data centers spanning the globe—most of them without an on-site technical team—any new network security deployments would have to support centralized management, provide detailed insights into what was happening on their networks, and offer robust reporting capabilities. As one of the world’s largest logistics companies, the customer required the very best in security efficacy to maintain business continuity and to continue honoring commitments they had made to their clients.

Pegasus Airlines Enhances Productivity and Data Protection with Forcepoint Cloud Security

Enterprise Oil & Gas Company Secures Critical Data with Forcepoint Insider Threat

The company stores a variety of valuable data: internal patents, intellectual property (IP), merger and acquisition data, machine schematics, and geological data like potential drill sites. Many of those with access to this sensitive data are temporary contractors, employed for only a brief period of time. Understanding the higher risk that accompanies shorter-term employees, company leaders brought in third-party analysts to do an assessment of insider threat risk. Analysts found that data was indeed leaving the company, and that nearly half of the data loss incidents were directly related to the actions of negligent or malicious insiders. Upon hearing the results, company leaders authorized the creation of an internal insider threat task force.

The new solution needed to support a wide range of connectivity options, allow for redundancy at each site, have the ability to assign priority to business-critical application traffic, provide visualization tools and reports, offer next-generation security, and have centralized management.

Rösler Improves Network Transparency with Forcepoint NGFW

Rösler, a leading player in the mechanical surface finishing sector, was facing challenges with its IT security. The company had been using several firewall systems in its branches, all of which had to be separately managed and maintained. This made determining the IT security status of the entire network either rarely possible or extremely time-consuming. Tasks like updates or the securing of individual firewalls were also very time-consuming. Most firewalls in the individual branches could not be regularly monitored due to time constraints. This meant that settings and administrative activities were not being monitored on an ongoing basis, daily compliance checks were not being carried out, and configuration errors and potential security risks were not immediately being noticed. It was therefore imperative for the IT department to improve network transparency and to guarantee the simplest possible management process.

Empowering a Safe, Productive Educational Environment with Forcepoint

St. Benedict Preparatory School faced a challenge in maintaining a safe and productive educational environment. The school needed to prevent students from accessing inappropriate or distracting web content through classroom technology. However, stringent policies could hinder faculty and staff from performing their duties effectively. The existing firewall/router combo solution was unable to filter web addresses on a per-user basis, which was necessary for the school's unique needs. Additionally, the school needed a solution that could protect students and staff even when they were off-premises.

Indian Power Distributor Stays Ahead of Evolving Privacy Regulations

The power distributor provides energy to five power companies across an Indian state with a population of more than 25 million people. Managing the state’s power also means securing the personal and financial data of individuals and business customers. The company manages customer bill pay, consumer feedback, and more—which means that it acquires a sizeable amount of data, from customer names and contact information to invoicing details and power usage trends. In the wrong hands, this data can potentially be used to commit fraud or theft. While the company’s data stores increase, India’s attitude toward data protection is evolving. In August 2017, the country’s Supreme Court ruled privacy was a fundamental human right, spurring work on a nationwide personal data protection bill. While that bill has not yet been enacted, businesses see increased regulation of private data on the horizon and know they will likely need strong regulatory compliance processes very soon. The power company first engaged Forcepoint after reaching an impasse with a web security solution that wasn’t effective or flexible enough to meet its needs. The incumbent web security solution would bypass the URL filter, allowing users to access unauthorized sites. Separate URL filtering and web proxy point products caused a second challenge: the products were meant to work together but dependencies between them meant upgrades to one product would cause the other product to stop working—leading to support and management issues. In addition to these functionality and integration issues, the security product’s category database was less than comprehensive, with multiple categories missing. And a complex update process made it difficult to revise.

Customized Data Protection Keeps Up with This High-Speed Enterprise

The global telecommunications enterprise was in a race against time and competitors to secure a significant market share in the 5G technology. The company was under constant pressure to innovate, share information, and move quickly. However, the company was fined for a breach of customer data that its existing DLP product neither prevented nor detected. The security team was under pressure to secure data and intellectual property without slowing down the business operations. The high level of competition in the industry meant that the enterprise leaned towards freeing the business with fewer data controls over completely shutting down data loss, even if that meant taking some risks.

Forcepoint DLP Implementation in Microland

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.
