Blue Cross ... Meeting our complicated needs

Over the years, our environment has become increasing complicated as we continue to improve our security and data protection posture. GTB Technologies has demonstrated time and time again its ability to be agile in meeting our needs. We have seen other (larger) companies struggle to understand issues and communicate them within their company to work toward delivering a solution. This has not been the case with GTB.

GTB Is A DLP Market Leader

Our deployed Digital Guardian deployment was failing miserably. The product did not function properly and support was non-existent. The inability to address audit issues, inaccurate data provided by the system, and the lack of reporting prompted us to implement GTB after a detailed evaluation of DLP products.

Most Advanced DLP
