A pharmaceutical company based in Washington state is specializing in developing and manufacturing innovative drugs for rare diseases. As part of its operations, the company regularly deals with sensitive and confidential information that needs to be protected at all times. To ensure the safety of its intellectual property, they needed to find a way to protect its USB drives and automate the backup process for its Office 365 data.
A pharmaceutical company based in Washington state is specializing in developing and manufacturing innovative drugs for rare diseases. As part of its operations, the company regularly deals with sensitive and confidential information that needs to be protected at all times. To ensure the safety of its intellectual property, they needed to find a way to protect its USB drives and automate the backup process for its Office 365 data.
A Washington State based pharmaceutical company was facing two significant challenges related to data security. Firstly, the company needed to protect the intellectual property (IP) on USB drives used by its employees. Secondly, it needed an automated backup process for its Office 365 data to ensure that there was an immutable backup copy available at all times.
The Washington State based pharmaceutical company was able to implement both solutions quickly and easily with minimal disruption to its day-to-day operations. By using SecureDrives, the company has a simple and effective way to protect its USB drives and the IP they contain. The VeeamTM script used in conjunction with SecureDrive BT encrypted drive solution has made the backup process more efficient, allowing them to ensure that its Office 365 data is always protected and available when needed.
After analyzing the company's requirements, two solutions were recommended to address both endpoint control and secure backup needs.
Endpoint Protection & Device Management
For USB security, the company implemented the SecureData Remote Management Console paired with SecureUSB BT a hardware-encrypted drive with FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validation. The cloud-based Remote Management Console gives IT administrators a centralized, browser-based platform to manage and monitor all USB devices across the organization. Combined with SecureGuard, SecureData's port-blocking tool, only authorized USB devices are permitted to connect to company endpoints. All intellectual property stored on managed drives is protected by password authentication, ensuring sensitive data remains secure and compliant even if a device is lost or stolen.
Automated Secure Backup
For Microsoft 365 data protection, the company deployed Veeam™ Backup in conjunction with SecureDrive BT, a FIPS 140-2 Level 3 validated hardware-encrypted external drive. A custom Veeam script automates the entire backup process unlocking the SecureDrive BT, executing the backup, and locking the drive upon completion. The result is an immutable, encrypted backup copy that cannot be modified, giving the company a reliable and auditable recovery point at all times.
A Unified Compliance-Ready Solution
By combining SecureData's endpoint management and encryption capabilities with Veeam's advanced backup platform, the company established a robust data protection strategy that addresses both data-at-rest security and regulatory compliance without adding complexity to daily operations.
