“Doing a manual investigation would take years and years – that was not an option.”
– Simon, Senior Information Security Engineer
THE CHALLENGE
What was the client's need?
This global agriculture platform uses multiple environments, such as file shares, Sharepoint, Microsoft Exchange, and, most importantly, Salesforce to store and process data. Performing a manual PII scan was not a viable option due to the sheer volume of the data.
PII Tools offered the perfect solution for an automated scan of their whole environment. In addition, automated scheduled scans ensured no omissions going forward, for newly created data.
OUR SOLUTION
Automatically scheduled scans of the environment
Results
10,000+ files scanned every hour
1 beautiful report on PII data
∞ man-hours saved
Conclusion
PII Tools did exactly what this global agriculture platform was hoping for – an overview of the state of PII data in their digital environment. With our solution set up and running, the CIO received a clear situational report. This served as a stepping stone to improve internal processes, making sure all the sensitive data is safe and secure.
