How a Global Financial Services Organization Achieved Compliance and Security for Independent Advisors with Venn
Overview
In the heavily regulated financial services industry, a global Fortune 100 organization that employs independent consultants and investment advisors, needed to ensure the security of sensitive client data. Since their independent advisors often used their personal computers, the company needed a solution that ensured their devices were secure and compliant without taking control of the entire device. The company chose Venn because the solution helped isolate and protect company data from personal use on the same computer, but also featured a clear visual indicator (Blue Border™) to advisors when they were accessing work-related data and applications. This helped ensure their personal privacy remained intact.
The Result
Venn gave the company a simple, streamlined approach to meet security and compliance – without relying on securing the entire device or virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI). The clear visual cues provided by Blue Border™ gave both the company and the independent advisors peace-of-mind, knowing that work data was securely accessed without compromising personal privacy. This allowed the company to maintain security and compliance while respecting the independence of their advisors.
No Need for VDI
Venn enabled the company to achieve security and compliance without the intrusiveness of taking over the whole device or the cost and complexity of virtual desktop infrastructure (VDI).
Clear Visual Indicators
Blue Border™ provided advisors with a simple, visible cue when accessing work-related data, ensuring they could easily distinguish between personal and work activity.
Maintained Compliance
Advisors could securely access client data while maintaining personal privacy, ensuring that sensitive information was handled with full regulatory compliance.
With remote contractors that come and go quickly to support seasonality, VDI provisioning was going to be a nightmare.

How Venn’s Blue Border™ isolates and protects work data on unmanaged and BYOD laptops without VDI or locking down an entire device.
Key features like app isolation, security policies, and device compliance, and how they simplify BYOD security for IT and security teams.
Real-world examples of how Venn secures company data on unmanaged laptops and drives IT efficiency at a lower cost.
Before Venn, we were not allowing BYOD and we were deploying computers for every person. Our struggle was because of all of our security tooling. To meet our benchmarks, we had to buy 1,000 dollar laptops to meet all the requirements and make it so that they could work. If we can get rid of just a portion of our laptops a year, it basically pays for all Venn users.
Optimal Performance Makes Satisfied Employees and Clients
Unlike VDI, which has latency and performance issues, work applications are launched directly from the computer and run locally. By avoiding remotely delivered desktops, users enjoy optimal performance and a familiar device experience.
Productive, Protected and Private
Workers want the flexibility to work how and where they want. Venn provides a fast, familiar and flexible user experience on employee-chosen devices, helping them quickly ramp productivity. Users can effortlessly switch between work and personal tasks, with no compromise on security or privacy. With Venn, both company data and personal privacy are ensured.
