The challenge at hand
Combating unauthorized data exfiltration
Motorola, a front-runner in the smartphone industry, was grappling with a critical challenge: the exfiltration of confidential product designs before their official launch. This issue was not just a breach of security; it was a direct threat to the company’s market position and innovation lead. With new products frequently in the pipeline, the sensitive design data required extensive collaboration across various teams and even external supply chains, making it a significant challenge to manage and protect this information without hampering the aggressive product development timelines. The company's existing security tools were falling short, unable to effectively detect and prevent the sophisticated data exfiltration techniques used by competitors, particularly Chinese copycats.
