Absa Instant Life Protects its Sensitive Data with Zecurion DLP

Absa Instant Life, South Africa, a new-generation insurance administrator, today disclosed the deployment and use case success story of Zecurion Data Loss Prevention.

Absa Instant Life, dealing with thousands of clients’ personal data every day, required a reliable Data Loss Prevention solution that will help comply with the regulations and protect data from unintentional losses or employee fraudulent actions.

There were important demands: deployment as Endpoint Agent, detection of sensitive data-at-rest and data-in-motion, and no influence on internal IT infrastructure. All of this was within a limited budget.

“First, we were worried, that none of the solutions will match our needs, except for those costing an arm and a leg. After reviewing other vendor suggestions, we finally found Zecurion offering outstanding solution within our budget."

says Leonard Mills, Full Stack Engineer Absa Instant Life

The company has implemented Zecurion Data Loss Prevention, deployed on user endpoints (Traffic Control, Device Control, Discovery Agent). And it was not only the price, which made decision-making easy. 

In addition to control of all communication channels and endpoint devices, Absa Instant Life received an option to detect and record information from the user’s screen, clipboard, keyboard, and microphone. Support of scheduled or real-time scans of local drives for sensitive information was a noticeable advantage.

“I am very familiar with the product, however seeing the screen, webcam, and microphone capture in practice was a very positive experience. Having a comprehensive view on employees thanks to large-scale emotional profiling was impressive as well.”

says Eugene Verster, Zecurion Africa Sales Lead Tech Wise Solution.

Implementation was easy and took just 2 days. The organization assigned 1 security officer to work with the DLP (adjust reports and analyze staff activity).

Now Absa Instant Life is compliant with the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPI). Employee actions with the sensitive data are detected, analyzed, and blocked in case of misuse.
