Independent study finds that Code42 speeds investigation time, avoids user downtime, reduces legal fees, and avoids financial losses from data leaks and IP theft
Code42 Software, Inc., the leader in data loss and insider threat protection, commissioned Forrester Consulting to conduct a Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study to evaluate the return on investment (ROI) that the Code42® Incydr™ data protection solution provides customers. Forrester found that a composite organization, comprised of interviewees with experience using the Code42 Incydr solution realized an ROI of 172%, equating to a net present value (NPV) of $1.30M. What’s more, it offers a break-even point of under 6 months – which is before most traditional DLP and CASB deployments get off the ground.
Forrester reports that amid increasing data exposure events led by business transformation and the widespread adoption of the cloud and remote work, organizations are lacking full visibility into data movement, they are bogged down with inefficient workflows, and they are increasingly losing data at the hands of insiders. Customers attest that Code42 Incydr data protection addresses these key challenges by offering a unified and comprehensive approach to risk management, delivering the necessary visibility, context, and control to prevent data leaks and intellectual property theft, all while improving efficiencies for internal resources.
“Code42 Incydr provides the context-driven detection and the wide array of response controls needed to see and stop data leaks and IP theft across an organization's data landscape while improving efficiencies for internal resources,” said Forrester in the study.
Forrester projected that the three-year, risk-adjusted present value quantified benefits for the composite organization include:
- 35% reduction in manual investigations and a 50% reduction in mean time to investigate medium and high-risk incidents
- 40% reduction in low-risk events due to Code42 Instructor™, its microtraining solution for insider activity
- 80% reduction in endpoint devices requiring forensic investigation services, amounting to $268,000 in forensic search cost savings
- More than 19,000 hours of end-user downtime avoided over three years, resulting in $570,000 in savings
- 40% reduction in loss per major data exfiltration incident, with $686,000 in avoided costs due to data exfiltration
- Able to avoid using outside counsel for at least 60% of cases, cutting out costly legal fees
“Data loss could be malicious, or it could be accidental, but it will always be costly to a company,” said Joe Payne, President and CEO of Code42. “Companies that don’t have comprehensive data protection solutions are driving without seatbelts. Code42 customers continue to report cost benefits from securing their organizations with Incydr. When we hear customers say that Incydr has freed up 50% of the manpower they would otherwise need to investigate insider data loss events, we know that we’ve brought real value to security teams.”
