Due to the nature of the practice, it is of the utmost importance that the law firm’s most sensitive information be handled with only the highest degree of security. One the firm’s biggest challenges was that executives and external board members considered electronic communications too risky to use to transmit confidential information for board meetings. As a result, the executives and board members still relied on the physical distribution of paper and CDs. The process of using paper and CDs was overly cumbersome, prone to error and highly ineffective for sharing important information quickly. Additionally, the distribution of paper and CDs was a largely untrackable process, and there was a significant risk that these items could accidentally fall into the wrong hands. Jamie, the Manager of Information Security, recognized the many challenges and risks associated with the use of papers and CDs. As a result, he began to search for a highly secure solution that could safely enable the exchange of confidential information, offered granular access control and was able to track exactly who accessed what and when.

This global law firm has over 1,100 professionals in offices across the United States, Europe, and Asia. The firm is considered a global leader across several industries and specializes in mergers and acquisitions, intellectual property, investment management, tax, and real estate, among other areas. Due to the nature of its business, this firm sought a solution that would enable key members of the organization to quickly and easily exchange sensitive information with the highest levels of security and privacy.

After evaluating his options, Jamie selected CyberArk’s Sensitive Information Management Solution to enable executives and board members to exchange confidential information with the highest degree of security. Using CyberArk’s Sensitive Information Management Solution, executives and board members are now able to quickly and easily exchange highly confidential documents at their own discretion, and they are able to share this information with only the specific colleagues who need to see it. Thanks to the strong security controls, the executives and board members are now comfortable sharing these documents electronically through CyberArk’s solution. For oversight, the IT team has complete visibility into where the information is and who has accessed it, but the information itself remains secure from unauthorized eyes.
