Compliance Supervisor: Visualize Information Barriers & Watchlists

Problem: Our customer, a large hedge fund, reviewed 1% of all communications, based on random samples & keywords. This provided poor insight into the regulatory risks of the business.

Solution: Catelas, deployed in 3 days, analyzed 100% of all eCommunications, visualizing communication through and around information barriers and about specific watchlist terms.

Value: Without increasing resources, Compliance now analyzes all communications and focuses on the risks associated with how business is done.

FCPA Compliance: Identify key people before you collect

Problem: Our client, a Global 500 company, conducted many investigations. These were costly, disruptive and often inconclusive as the interviews & data collected failed to uncover key people.

Solution: Catelas analyzed regional email server log files generating an Identification report. Key people were identified, interviews were prepared in advance and data tagged for collection.

Value: Having a comprehensive & prioritized list of candidates identified prior to flying, radically changed the effectiveness and speed of the investigation, cutting costs & reducing disruption.

Law Firm: Avoid surprises with regulatory inquiries

Problem: Our client, an Am Law 100 firm, completed a 200,000 document review as part of a regulatory request, but remained concerned that the risks were not understood.

Solution: Catelas Early Case Intelligence software analyzed the production within 24 hours, uncovering 4 hot documents that indicated serious regulatory risk.

Value: Knowing this risk before the regulator, allowed counsel to get ahead of the issue, proactively negotiate with the regulator for a swift settlement and avoid costly surprises.

Problem: Our partner was engaged by a client on an anti-trust matter, where scope was difficult to control because of the number of potentially responsive custodians.

Solution: Within 4 hours, Catelas Identification used email log files to automatically visualize the 'live org. chart' of a 40,000 person company, reducing scope to 8 custodians. On collection, Catelas Early Case Intelligence uncovered 40 'hot documents' for senior review within 4 hours & tagged 10% for 1st pass review within Relativity.

Value: Catelas helped counsel defensibly reduce collection. Next production set risk was uncovered, allowing counsel to agree strategy & resolve the conflict early through negotiation.

Security: Identifying information theft in a call center

Problem: Our customer, a Fortune 500 public company, operated many call centers globally. However, despite a 'clean desk' policy within the centers customer information was being stolen.

Solution: Catelas filled the gaps left by the DLP system, by automatically identifying agent anomalous behavior. Catelas identified agents who emailed customer data to webmail accounts.

Value: Of 500 agents, Catelas identified the 10 person ring involved in 'high jacking' customer accounts, despite the agent 'coding' the messages to avoid detection by DLP systems.

Security: uncovering the insider threat without pre-filters

Problem: Our customer, with 40,000 people, grew concerned when, over the previous 12 months, they increasingly lost competitive bids - both on price and functionality.

Value: Using behavioral analytics, Catelas discovered an 'automated forward' on all executive email to a webmail account, that a departing IT manager had set up.
