About The Customer

IMI Remosa is a leading manufacturer of control systems with solid industrial service experience. The company works with refineries, petrochemical industries, power plants, mining and manufacturing industries, and metal working industries, where it operates as a service provider for mechanical precision products and industrial maintenance. IMI Remosa’s main products are valves, actuators, and electrohydraulic control units, all of which are designed and built entirely in-house. IMI Remosa’s clients include oil refining companies and plants around the world. In 2012, IMI Remosa joined the group IMI Plc, a British multinational leader in the industrial engineering market, integrating its core business into a notably more complex and structured enterprise. IMI Plc employs more than 12,000 people and has production plants in more than 20 countries with annual revenue of approximately £1.7 billion.

The Challenge

IMI Remosa, a leading manufacturer of control systems, faced a significant challenge in protecting its proprietary information. As the company continued to grow and innovate, the volume and accessibility of sensitive data increased, making the company increasingly vulnerable to data leakage and theft. The company's transition to a multinational organization accelerated the need for a security solution that could prevent data leakage and theft while ensuring safe and regular access to sensitive information. The IT organization was tasked with protecting the company's intellectual property and defining user roles and access privileges. To ensure the security and control the flow of sensitive information within the network, a security solution that provides both comprehensive Data Theft Prevention and detailed analytic reports was necessary.

The Solution

After researching the data security market, IMI Remosa chose Forcepoint Web and Data Security solutions, trusting that the combination would more than meet their need to manage web and data security risks. The adoption of Forcepoint has delivered significant security advantages to IMI Remosa in terms of cost and effectiveness. The web and data solution was also very helpful in modifying end-user behavior, preventing data and sensitive information leaks that are typically related to user error. This has led to a substantially higher level of internal data security and confidentiality. TRITON Architecture’s enhanced reporting capabilities deliver more granular control over data security with statistical detail that was not previously possible. This has enabled IMI Remosa’s IT service quality to improve.
