Overall Satisfaction with Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection for Email

Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection is used across our entire organization worldwide, which includes 15 global offices. It provides next-gen email security for Advent.

Pros

  • Messages with malicious URLs are blocked/quarantined and kept out of end-users mailboxes

Cons

  • Sometimes you'll get a TAP warning that messages with malicious content were already delivered to users mailboxes BEFORE the Proofpoint algorithm detected them as malicious.
  • Once we get a Targeted Attack Protection notification that malicious content was delivered to an end user's mailbox, our service desk will scan that user's pc to ensure that nothing was maliciously run or installed.
Proofpoint costs more than Mimecast, but their uptime in comparison has been much better over the past year.
We receive malicious content that Targeted Attack Protection has blocked almost on a daily basis.
