Classify your enterprise emails based on the level of email security threat to your organization and manage them accordingly.

Backed by the patented MLX Threat Classification Engine that’s focused on supporting your mission-critical business communications, we classify enterprise emails as either valid email, nuisance spam, or malicious, low-volume phishing attacks. Our email security threat protection solution uses real-time email message-tracing to provide the necessary security tools to triage any security threats.

Secure top-of-the-line protection from targeted attacks—which are three times more likely to target financial services than other enterprises.

Attackers have refined the tactics of phishing by incorporating the business world’s practice of using customized marketing to reach a targeted audience. And email is still the biggest vector for malware, since it has a record of success based on targeting individuals.

Deliberately stealthy, targeted messages are sent from IP addresses with good reputations, and sometimes use co-worker and manager names, and reference LinkedIn connections and Facebook updates. The result is the emails seem normal to the end user. But they’re unique to most email security systems, which fail to identify a pattern or recognize that there’s a targeted attack on the horizon.

To protect your company from these dangerous targeted attacks, Proofpoint leads the way with a sophisticated solution—which takes phishing detection to the next level by offering a very complex form of tracking that enables your organization to spot and prevent an attack automatically before it happens.

Proofpoint is available as a cloud-based data security solution and provides all the same rich functionality available as an on-premise solution. Our solution also seamlessly integrates to any cloud-based email solution, such as Microsoft's Office 365, ensuring regulatory compliance while taking advantage of the cost benefits of the cloud.

Compliance regulations are becoming stricter and covering more organizations than ever before. In the United States, not only are pharmaceutical organizations subject to compliance regulations and restrictions, but also so are their business partners, such as auditing and account firms.

Proofpoint in-place and outbound Data Loss Prevention and Encryption helps organizations with compliance requirements by accurately identifying emails containing sensitive information, and blocking or encrypting the messages before they leave the organization. Proofpoint also protects that information from viruses and malware, providing the industry’s best threat protection against modern-day, malicious threats.

Ensures your organization is maintaining compliance to privacy regulations but does not place the burden on employees.

Proofpoint Encryption is easy-to-use email encryption, backed by a strong policy engine that ensures all sensitive data is protected before it leaves your organization. All encrypted messages follow your organization’s compliance requirements.

Recipients of Proofpoint encrypted emails follow extremely simple steps to authenticate and access their messages. No pre-registration or exchange of encryption keys is required to use Proofpoint Encryption; ad-hoc email encryption is fully supported.

Ensure privacy in order to avoid data loss and remain in compliance. Proofpoint Enterprise Privacy (outbound and in-place Data Loss Prevention and encryption) helps organizations adhere to regulatory compliance and privacy regulations by ensuring that email carrying sensitive information is always secured—whether that entails blocking the information from leaving the organization or (in cases where the information needs to be shared), or encrypting it before it leaves the organization.

Proofpoint Enterprise Privacy can be deployed either on-premise, with physical or completely virtualized appliances, or as a SaaS solution with no change in functionality. Organizations can maintain regulatory compliance to increasingly strict healthcare privacy regulations while reducing costs by moving infrastructure into the cloud.

Proofpoint Enterprise Privacy Key Benefits:

Simplified Regulatory Compliance: Ensure your outbound messages comply with national and state government regulations, as well as industry-specific privacy regulations.

Superior Malicious and Accidental Data Loss Protection: Protect against the loss of sensitive data—whether from a cybercriminal attempting to exfiltrate valuable data from a compromised system, or from an employee accidentally distributing a file to the wrong party through email, webmail, social media, file sharing, or other Internet-based mechanisms for publishing content.

Easy-to-use Secure Communication: Share sensitive data easily without compromising security and privacy, and enable authorized external recipients to decrypt and read the communications from any device.

Allow sender-based remediation and help prevent regulatory compliance issues that result inadvertent data loss—the origin of the vast majority of compliance issues

Allow sender-based remediation and help prevent regulatory compliance issues that result inadvertent data loss—the origin of the vast majority of compliance issues.

Proofpoint Smart Send is a feature that gives select administrators the ability to perform sender-based remediation. Smart Send can temporarily stop this message, send a notification back to the sender alerting them of the content within the message, but then also provide direct remediation options within the notification: the ability to block that communication permanently, the ability to release that communication, or to encrypt that message before sending (if email).

Smart Send can be enabled for the entire organization or for specific groups.
