Overall Satisfaction with Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection for Email
We use Proofpoint Targeted Attack Protection for our entire organization. Our security team uses it every day to look into/analyze different threats that we are seeing coming into our network via email. We have the alerts set up to get us looking into the "critical" events, but we can use the data in the platform every day. It helps us realize how well Proofpoint Email Security is doing, and provides great stats/numbers for us to give to management to show what has been accomplished.
- Usability - The product is very easy to use, and begins giving a lot of valuable information immediately.
- Detail - The amount of detail for each threat is great, and helps us with "proving" there may be a problem somewhere.
- Defense - The URL rewrite function and sandbox function are great, and we saw immediate return from just those.
- Sandboxing can be slow at times, but that is understandable, but hard to explain to end users.
- URL rewrite takes time for the users to get used to the fact that every URL now looks "phishy".
- Sandboxing - Great tool, has helped stop quite a few attacks
- URL rewrite has saved our users a few times already
- VIP users - puts a watch on specific users, really important for us
- Stats, and information is beautiful and really helpful for upper management.
We did not look at any other products for this specific requirement.
