Preserving Workplace Culture While Protecting Sensitive Data

Workplace from Meta was implemented at a large, heavily regulated financial institution as they adopted a hybrid work environment. They invested in Workplace to help build and maintain team bonds. The organization wanted to ensure that employees were not using the platform to discuss work or upload work-related files, as this could put them at risk for compliance fines.

With Aware’s Signal application, they implemented policies and rules that caught and removed any sharing of personally identifiable information (PII) in near real-time. Advanced capabilities also allowed them to alert individuals of the appropriate Workplace rules of engagement.

The implementation of Workplace allowed employees to continue to feel engaged with their teams, despite working remotely. With Aware, their Risk and Security teams were confident that the tool could be used in a way that remained compliant with government regulations.
