Abnormal Security vs. Proofpoint Information Protection

Another local organization was compromised, and we were one of the targets of their further attempts. We were 100% protected because the behavioral analysis protected us, but also allowed me to contact that organization and report their compromise. This has actually happened more than one time since going live.

Best suited for organizations that are dealing with high volumes of protected/personsal or financial information that must be kept secure

Incentivized

• Spam filtering...we have been able to turn our spam sensitivity down on Exchange allowing more legitimate messages through to user inboxes.
• Malicious email filtering...we experienced several successful phishing attacks over the past year. Abnormal Security has prevented hundreds of individual campaigns since going live in August '22. I cannot thank them enough!
• Automated response for reported emails...my team is small and we do not have enough hours in a day to review and respond to each reported email. Abnormal Security performs additional analysis on those reports and automatically responds for us. If the message is spam or malicious, copies of those emails are looked for throughout the server and deleted.

Incentivized

• User administration is very intuitive and simple.
• Rules are quickly implemented allowing solid email incidence response.
• Enterprise support is spectacular offering to go above and beyond whenever necessary.

• None so far, I have been extremely happy with their service.

• Continue to improve on the receiving side when the message is delivered through the system

Abnormal Security blocks malicious emails that both PhishER and Cisco Secure Email Threat Defense miss. One thing that PhishER does have is the ability to flip a malicious message into a user education phishing email. That's cool, but I think we can just copy/paste the same info into a custom campaign.
