Case study
SAMSUNG R&D Institute

Samsung’s IT R&D hub uses Endpoint Protector to control PC peripherals and data transfers in a multi-OS environment.

The Challenge

Samsung’s R&D Institute needed a DLP solution that could help to manage insider threats and monitor employee activity related to data transfers.

The Solution

Samsung’s R&D Institute chose Endpoint Protector by CoSoSys because of its multi-OS capabilities. Besides Windows, Endpoint Protector efficiently safeguards sensitive data on macOS and Linux-based operating systems. What’s more, Endpoint Protector is the only enterprise DLP to offer same-day support for the latest macOS releases, closing any gaps in protection when new OS updates are made.

The team uses Endpoint Protector to control peripheral devices connected to employee machines (USB drives, smartphones, and more), and scans and protects data in motion with content inspection and contextual scanning. This prevents data leakage and data loss through various exit points, including web browsers, email clients, and applications such as Microsoft Outlook, Skype, or Dropbox.

Why Endpoint Protector?

  • Cross-platform protection for Windows, macOS, and Linux computers
  • Zero-day support for macOS and Windows
  • User-friendly interface
  • Granular control over PC peripherals and data transfers

“We have a good experience working with Cososys as a company. We’ve always received prompt support from the team.”
