A leading provider of insurance, banking and travel products and services with over nine million customers in 11 states needed to secure terabytes of customer and corporate data.
It needed to do this to comply with various industry and government regulations including PCI DSS, the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act and the Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, as well as to assure customers and business partners it was doing everything possible to protect their sensitive information across its entire, heterogeneous IT enterprise. That meant protecting structured and unstructured data in transit and at rest as they were used by key applications and systems including payment processing, underwriting, claims processing, travel booking, human resources, email and file sharing, telemarketing, document management, and application development and testing. The organization needed to do this in a way that would not complicate workflows, compromise its ability to analyze and act on the data or inhibit business growth in any way. How the solution would extend to their retail locations and processes was very important. After researching the solution options available to achieve its end-to-end data security objectives (with the assistance of Forrester Research), the organization implemented Voltage SecureData™ Enterprise, with Voltage Format-Preserving Encryption™ (FPE) for Data De-identification in production and non-production use cases.
