Internal Information Leaks Plague Financial Services Company
Problem
These leaks of confidential corporate information, which were also material, caused serious reputational issues for this company and they needed to act fast. It wasn’t known if the source was internal, or via a hacker, and customers demanded answers.
Solution
This was a long-time client of the firm, and we knew well the management team and the relevant media landscape. We brought in a data security forensic specialist who promptly found that the source was internal and that there was an intention to use proprietary information to undermine the business competitively.
Result
With this intelligence in hand, we brought in legal counsel to prepare to take action and protect the corporate interest.
