A global pharmaceutical company had to securely share patient information and drug formulations to outsource clinical trials to external partners. With Seclore for Microsoft 365, the company could secure clinical trial data and enable external collaboration without compromising patient confidentiality.
The Challenge
Protecting and sharing clinical trial research
As one of the world’s leading pharmaceutical companies,
our client is heavily invested in formulating new drugs and
designing medical devices.
Each new project needs to be rigorously tested through
a series of drug trials. The pharmaceutical company
collaborates with external research agencies to perform those
trials, sharing confidential drug formulations and sensitive
patient information back and forth as the trial progresses.
Once those trials are completed, the pharmaceutical
company shares all of that information with regulatory
agencies like the Central Drugs Standard Control Organization
(CDSCO), the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the
European Medicines Agency (EMA) for approval to market the
drug or device.
The pharmaceutical company needed to keep both confidential
patient information and valuable drug formulations safe from
misuse and data leaks without compromising their ability to
share information and collaborate with external partners.

The Solution
Auto-protection of data on Microsoft SharePoint Online
The pharmaceutical company implemented Seclore for Microsoft 365 to make cloud collaboration
easy, convenient, and secure.
Now, Seclore Enterprise Digital Rights Management automatically protects confidential information on SharePoint online. The solution protects documents as they are downloaded so they remain secure on any location, network, or device. This ensures complete information security and patient confidentiality, making it easy for the pharmaceutical company to comply with regulations like HIPAA
and the GDPR.
Seclore rights management automatically revokes access to confidential patient information once the research or clinical trial is completed, further limiting the risk of data leaks.
The Results
Over 10,000 documents protected for 2,000+ monthly active users
With Seclore, the pharmaceutical company is able to secure over 10,000 files each month for more
than 2,000 active users.
Collaboration is safe and convenient for all external collaborators, and the pharmaceutical company
can track the sharing and downloading of sensitive information wherever it resides.
