Enabling external files accessing the bank network safely


Background
Like any modern financial institute, the European Investment Bank is exposed to massive cyber-attacks, which threaten its network on a daily basis. After identifying removable media as one of its most vulnerable channels, the bank blocked all external ports and CD drives to protect the network and avoid attacks.

Challenge
the European Investment Bank, with thousands of employees, needed to provide a secured solution to enable external data infiltration to the bank network via portable media. The solution needed to comply with stringent security requirements, while offering smooth implementation, easy operation and simple maintenance.

Solution
The Bank installed odix Kiosk stations in its departments, leveraging the station as a gateway to ensure that all removable media devices attached to the network are malware-free.

Key takeaway
Removable media introduces high-risk threats to financial institutions must be especially careful as they hold private, sensitive information. For European banks the risk is even greater as they must maintain compliance with the European GDPR directive. odix enables companies to ensure all files entering their networks are malware-free.
