Proofpoint Intelligent Compliance Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Proofpoint Intelligent Compliance in order to bolster our in-house Cybersecurity Training and train our employee base on better Cybersecurity practices. We utilize the Phishing Simulation tool most often but have recently started to use Proofpoint's available training resources and videos as additional learning material regarding phishing and general good practices.

Likelihood to Recommend

Proofpoint Intelligent Compliance is well suited for organizations with a large amount of employees, in my opinion, as they have a lot of options for grouping users in various ways to send specific learning content to them. For a smaller organization, the employees might utilize all of the built-in training videos, phishing simulations, and content more rapidly, which would not justify the pricey cost of the tool.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

There was lots of misconduct in our organization, and we need to make it streamline by using a software and then we implement the Proofpoint Intelligent Compliance. It is working well and intelligently detect misconduct in a second and having the capability to reduce the time of investigation review. It is a nice protection at user level end-to-end.

Likelihood to Recommend

Our organization using MS-Team as a common collaborative platform and during the communication, it is most important to achieve the protection with highest level of investigation and supervision. We have been succeeded to measure and detect the misconduct after implementation of Proofpoint Intelligent Compliance. But If you are using non-standard collaboration client, then it will not help as much as you want.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It is used to supervise a vast array of digital communications for corporate and regulatory compliance protection.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Proofpoint primarily for email archiving for all users for the retention period of 6 years. Users are allowed to view their personal archives and we can also give access to other user archives for use cases such as an employee leaving our institution and their supervisor needing access to any ongoing email strings, including attachments. We also utilize Proofpoint's email and information protection. This includes an email firewall, allowing us to scan and allow or quarantine all emailing coming into our exchange server, and creating rules that limit what can be sent to and from our user emails. We also utilize Proofpoint's secure mail feature to encrypt all outgoing external emails. Lastly, we utilize Proofpoint's targeted attack protection as another line of defense with the email firewall to scan all incoming emails to quarantine and re-write malicious links and phishing attempts targeted at our users.

If you want an easy-to-implement solution with fast results for your end-users, I think Proofpoint checks the boxes. Although our institution personally experiences downtimes here and there, we are in a timezone far behind the rest of the United States where we would be affected by things most other institutions would not notice. But if 100% uptime is something you need, you would probably want to look for something hosted in-house instead of in the cloud. Their archiving feature is solid and easy to use from an end-user perspective. Firewall and archive is easy to manage from an admin perspective and once you have the basics set up, it's really just adding any new users and giving them the appropriate permissions to have access to the archive and any other Proofpoint features your institution might have access to, like secure share or email encryption.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Our entire organization is using Proofpoint Archiving and Compliance. It is nice how the email addresses tie to the Active Directory account for the user and act as a smart archive with a personal portal. It allows us the ability to grant access to each user their own archives, so if they accidentally deleted an email or realized later on that they need it, they can retrieve it from their own personal portal.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is great if you want to allow your end-users to have access to their own permanent archive. If they have access to this archive, they don't need to retain as many emails in their mailbox. This does two things:

<blockquote>1) For those admins concerned with storage limits, the users can confidently delete emails and maintain a smaller profile and

2) If they are deleting more emails, there are less emails available to attackers in the case of an account compromise.

</blockquote>I know #2 is a small chance of happening, but it does happen and seems to be the #1 goal of attackers nowadays to compromise an account.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We deal in an industry that is highly regulated and all contracts and agreements need to be maintained for years. Along with that our customer correspondence is of huge value and Proofpoint allows us to archive our communications and insure we have our bases covered should anything happen. It has helped us lower our inbox storage space as well which not only frees up space but has improved performance of our system overall.

Likelihood to Recommend

Proofpoint has been awesome for us dealing with the archiving and saving of emails in a high volume environment. We have 700 employees that are all receiving hundreds of emails a day and we need them all to be recorded and retrievable. Proofpoint allows us to do just that and know everything is at our fingertips.
