Use Cases and Deployment Scope
It's one of the best tools in email security, very easy to deploy, maintain, and manage. It is very effective in detecting malicious attachments, and spam mails. It can be deployed in large networks to scan spam mails and it has granular control such as we can block specific emails from outside of the network as well. It has the feature to control unwanted emails.
Pros and Cons
  • It is a solution that is very effective to protect against malware/phishing mails with accuracy and ease of use.
  • It has very good reporting features which helps in getting more customized report.
  • Extra ordinary email trace feature which gives end to end flow.
  • Good in blocking advanced threats.
Likelihood to Recommend
It has a very good feature of URL replace, it helps us to block or prevent spam, phishing, or malicious emails. It has some limitations like if some large or lengthy emails come it takes more time to scan and to avoid delay it forwards the mail to the recipient with a warning note on it.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
A great solution to protect against malicious/phishing coming from email with accuracy and ease of use. Advance attack and email trace feature, give end-to-end email flow information. Easy dashboard to use, simple yet effective. FireEye threat intelligence services are integrated with EX. Work well with O365 Email ATP, both do retrospective alerts.
Pros and Cons
  • Work great for a 2Lod for phishing and malware.
  • Complete email security prevention is available on the cloud model.
  • We get more control over email which to our network and we can stop what comes in the email from outside.
Likelihood to Recommend
Complete email security protection against all email users. it also works well with O365 email ATP as well. Both do retrospective alerts. It's like watching a dance between 2 products. They typically don't retro the same email. They fingerprint emails for future blocking. Provides a higher level of security for emails and ease in identifying abnormalities.

FireEye Email Security is the primary email gateway for the company. It is used for malware analysis as well as the enterprise-wide email quarantine system.
Pros and Cons
  • Very user-friendly and simple interface.
  • Policy rules are easy to create and they work.
  • Very little downtime or operational impact.
  • Email delivery issues are easy to investigate and troubleshoot.
Likelihood to Recommend
I would highly recommend FireEye Email Security to a colleague. The platform is good at eliminating malicious emails prior to delivery to the end-user. Detections exist across the URL, attachment, and embedded HTML levels. It is a strong platform.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
FireEye Email Security—Server Edition is being used across the whole organization. We managed our email via Office 365. It supports email security features besides email service. However, it was difficult to block URL-based threats and the security settings were complex, making it difficult for us to use other than basic security features. So, we introduced FireEye Email Security to address this problem. Since then, we have been freed from phishing threats. In particular, FAUDE (FireEye Advanced URL Detection Engine) has been of great help in blocking threats.
Pros and Cons
  • Blocking URL-based threats using FAUDE features.
  • Post threat detection via the Retroactive feature.
  • Excellent sandboxing analysis performance and detailed dynamic analysis reports.
Likelihood to Recommend
Even if you are using email security features via enterprise mail, it is the best option for securing enterprise mail. In particular, FAUDE (FireEye Advanced URL Detection Engine) has been of great help in blocking URL-based threats. If you use O365, MS365, and Gmail, you can respond to the post email delivery weaponized URL threat through the Remediation feature.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use it as an email gateway for the company. All email addressed to our employee's email addresses are routed through the appliance. It attempts to filter out some malicious emails based on the links and attachments that are found. It is not our only email defense that we have in our stack.
Pros and Cons
  • It does a decent job of detecting malicious attachments in emails.
  • It is easy to release emails that are incorrectly quarantined.
Likelihood to Recommend
It works well as one component of an email security stack, as long as you do not mind dealing with false positives. It would not be suitable as the only component in an email security system. When upstream components of our stack have gone down, a high number of malicious mail got through our FireEye appliance.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
FireEye Email Security is used by the two organizations we manage as an email security and spam filter. We have an Exchange on-premise server for each organization. FireEye ES is set as the MX record to the front for each of these servers. The mail is scanned, filtered and then released through to Exchange for delivery. ES was purchased to replace our Barracuda Spam filter. We liked the way the Barracuda filtered spam but wanted to up our security game. We reviewed ES, liked what we heard and saw and made the switch. We have been very happy with the security aspect of ES as it seems to aggressively defend against email attacks.
Pros and Cons
  • Ease of implementation was a key factor in our decision making for an email security/spam product. FireEye ES was very easy to implement as well as to maintain.
  • Blocking effectiveness in an email security/spam product has to be the most important factor. FireEye ES does a very good job of completely blocking the vast majority of risky emails. With its sand-boxing features, it does a good job of evaluating threats. The spam blocking is effective without being overly so.
  • Being a cloud product makes ease of management a great feature. The console is easy to get to, use and understand. Whitelisting, finding emails that are impacted, and other common email flow questions are easily achieved.
Likelihood to Recommend
FireEye as a company seems very good overall. We are evaluating other security products from them as I write this and I have to say when it comes to security itself and customer support they appear to be very good. We had another spam filtering product that seemed to work well, but a few years back when security content became a bigger issue than spam content we decided to evaluate new products and chose ES. The product seems to work very well at blocking the bad stuff and allowing good stuff and is easy to monitor and manage. The company is very responsive and helpful. The ES cloud application itself is consistently upgraded and improved. The way you implement the product is very easy. We have begun testing the O365 hybrid scenario and ES works very well in this scenario.
