Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We utilize Forcepoint Email Security to secure our inbound and outbound email flow from current threats and to employ security features such as DKIM, DMARC, etc.

Pros and Cons

Ease of GUI
Rule creating very intuitive

Speed is not the best but its email not instant chat

Alternatives Considered

Cisco Email Security and McAfee Email Gateway (Discontinued)

While the Cisco Email was a close second, the customization of the Forcepoint Email Security policies and reports is what won us over.

Support Rating

The support could be better, but the good thing is rarely having to call them.
