UserTesting provides on-demand usability testing and research solutions through its human insight platform.
Solution
Proactive, security-minded internal stakeholders with Mimecast Incydr
Problem
UserTesting needed to be able to have visibility into risky data behavior so it could inform, engage and educate, and, where necessary, to detect and respond to actual risks before it became a problem. The company also wanted to implement a strong data loss prevention program without losing employees’ trust.
Benefit
- Proactive, security-minded internal stakeholders
- Data secured in just two months without disrupting employee productivity and collaboration
- Company-wide and user-based understanding of high-risk activity to effectively mitigate insider threats
“With the insight Incydr provides, we are able to quickly and easily determine what is normal behavior and what is an indicator of Insider Risk.” Dustin Fritz, Senior Security Architect at UserTesting
To fuel and protect UserTesting’s innovation, their security team partners with the business to ensure data security amidst their culture of agility, collaboration and employee enablement.
This collaborative culture is increasingly important for high achieving organizations like UserTesting to maintain their speed-to-market and competitive advantage. As the popularity of cloud applications and remote work increases, the ability to rely on a perimeter to secure sensitive data continues to dwindle.
UserTesting needed to detect and respond to real data risk as it happens. They also wanted to enable employees to collaborate and work from anywhere without compromising security. They also wanted to build relationships with internal business partners to understand user behavior and data movement vectors.
Now, with Incydr and their partnership with other departments at UserTesting, the security team has the visibility it needs to understand how, where, when and what data moves in and out of their organization.
