Video: Proofpoint Customer Case Study - Redwood Credit Union
Following up on my previous video post featuring some great anti-phishing and password tips from Proofpoint customer Tony Hidlesheim of Redwood Credit Union, here are two more videos where Tony talks about how his organization uses Proofpoint to secure inbound email while preventing data loss via outbound email and HTTP traffic.
Redwood Credit Union is the 10th largest credit union in the state of California. In part one of our video interview, Tony explains how the credit union uses Proofpoint for email security while also applying those same security policies to HTTP (web or "port 80") traffic. Tony also shares some security insights about social media and the security.
In part two of our customer case study interview, Tony talks more about the specific inbound email security and outbound data loss prevention policies that his organization enforces. Tony discusses some of the features he most likes about Proofpoint.
He also comments on the impact of data privacy rules and regulations such as PCI and GLBA, noting that while compliance with regulations is important, his number one concern is keeping credit union members' private financial information secure because his business is all about member service.
Thanks again to Tony and the rest of our friends at Redwood Credit Union for taking the time to share these perspectives with me!
