Overview

Email remains the number one vector for human-targeted attacks, which continue to grow in sophistication. Recent Proofpoint data shows that over a third of global CISOs (36%) cited email threats as their top security concern.

Proofpoint Core Email Protection is an AI-driven solution that protects people by blocking modern email threats pre-delivery, post-delivery and at click-time. It provides actionable visibility into your human attack surface, highlighting who is being attacked and how. This allows you to optimize security resources, resulting in positive operational outcomes. By integrating multiple controls across email, cloud, users, and suppliers, it customizes protection around your people before, during, and after an attack.

It’s the only AI/ML-powered, cloud-based threat protection platform that effectively disarms today’s advanced attacks, including email fraud (BEC), ransomware, weaponized URLs, multifactor authentication (MFA) bypass for credential phishing, and more.

How we are different

• Unique to Proofpoint is our human-centric approach. Email threats require humans to click, download or reply. To be secure, organizations must understand who their very attacked people are. Proofpoint provides visibility into who’s being targeted and how, enabling organizations to mitigate email risks by applying individualized adaptive controls, like targeted security trainings and browser isolation.


• Proofpoint sets itself apart with its big data-driven AI analytics and analysis capabilities. The platform provides superior efficacy and an industry-leading low false positive rate of <1 in 19.7 million messages. Our multi-layered Proofpoint Nexus detection ensemble includes pre-, post-delivery, and click-time URL and attachment sandboxing, BEC defense, and world-class semantic analysis and behavioral AI engines.


• Proofpoint delivers operational savings with an integrated solution that streamlines abuse-mailbox management and automates remediation. We stop threats before they reach your organization, reducing your workload. We also automate the remediation of malicious and unwanted emails post-delivery, limiting exposure time and accelerating incident response. Customers have reported saving $300K in annual operation costs by reducing administrative overhead.
