“ Many of our customers are migrating their services to hybrid technologies , so security plays a very important role . If the business is transforming , security has to transform along with all the needs of our customers and users ,” said Salinas . “ We can openly collaborate and become a digital company driven by security technology . We are in position to be an information distribution channel for our users because Forcepoint safeguards our infrastructure , our employees and our clients .”
Remote management was also critical in helping the company and its customers maintain Business Continuity and support new requirements to work from home . Before the pandemic , employees only used PCs at their desk . Forcepoint enabled Buró to adapt practically overnight .

Forcepoint ’ s VPN client , we can continue delivering services to employees , customers and partners despite the fact that some users don ’ t have those remote capabilities . We have been able to keep all our services and applications running without interruption or disruption .”
Giving compliance and security a good rating for the future
As the Buró is more than a credit information company , it is subject to multiple national laws , including the Law on Credit Report Agencies and other regulations . All of them with security at the heart of the matter .
“ We have to comply with many privacy , confidentiality , integrity and compliance measures at all levels and security is one of the most critical elements that our customers consider when deciding to use our service ,” said Salinas . “ They know we are a reliable company that invests in security , that has good processes and that is certified .”
Forcepoint ’ s focus on protecting users and data aligns with Buró de Crédito ’ s Digital Transformation strategy . After nearly two decades of partnership , the two companies continue to expand capabilities together with an eye towards a secure future .
“ Forcepoint knows our business very well ,” said Salinas . “ It knows what we need . There ’ s a culture of security within our company and our employees understand that the type of business we have is built on technology that can securely provide products and services . For without security , there is no business .” u www . intelligentciso . com
