Deutsche Telekom, being at the forefront of providing global digital access, sought to consolidate their IT infrastructure under the Zero Trust Architecture to continuously protect sensitive information. To address these challenges, Deutsche Telekom implemented NextLabs’ Zero Trust Data Security to unify data protection process for extensive user bases across all major platforms. Deutsche Telekom was able to adopt the zero-trust security architecture to automate and standardize security measures and implement a global ERP strategy with strict data access controls. Additionally, it enabled the Company to enhance cloud computing capabilities and ensures effective security measures by protecting against unauthorized access and data leakage, all while reducing costs with a no-code approach. These measures allow Deutsche Telekom to continuously protect sensitive data, implement field-level encryption, and enforce privacy policies, thereby strengthening data governance and standardizing data protection across the organization.

Takeaways:

  • Automate access and protection of data using least privilege principle and classification to dynamically protect sensitive data regardless of where it is used or stored.
  • Simplify management of data protection policies to prevent unauthorized access of restricted data.
  • Simplified policy administration and management through a unified policy platform to respond to new cybersecurity requirements in real-time.
