ASSESS: CASE STUDY


CLIENT GOALS

  • Verify and quantify exposure of confidential information
  • Insulate competitive advantage/proprietary technology
  • Restore customer confidence

SITUATION OVERVIEW

One of the largest global independent real estate financial companies was experiencing:
  • Virus exposure
  • Hacking
  • Security infringements due to:
             Unethical behavior by disgruntled employees
             Inadvertent error by untrained personnel

Poor audits, extensive corporate restructuring, and experienced breaches eroded customer confidence and internal morale. Without a clear identification of the scope of past breaches or ability to forecast additional sources of vulnerability, the company was concerned about protecting its CRM data and ultimately its proprietary technology.

ECLIPSECURITY SOLUTION

Recognizing that security infringements were widespread in location and varied in medium, Eclipsecurity Texas office developed a customized cross-divisional and multi-functional enterprise security assessment within the company's headquarters and 4 regional locations. The total security assessment included:
  • Information security policy, management, and fulfillment
  • Security operations
  • Asset classification and control
  • Business continuity management, metrics, and yield
  • Personnel security
  • Physical and environmental security
  • Access control systems development and maintenance
  • Regulatory compliance

RESULTS

5 Eclipsecurity consultants engaged for 10 weeks uncovered 1,600 vulnerabilities and information security insufficiencies. Eclipsecurity then was retained to design and implement a multifaceted remediation plan to quickly and adeptly manage all strategic insulation points.

  • With Eclipsecurity now as its security firm of record, the financial institution has experienced a 91% reduction in breaches and 96% reduction in vulnerabilities.
  • Customer confidence restored.
  • Proprietary technology secured.
