What is Proofpoint Email Protection?

Proofpoint's Email Protection solutions, offered as both a cloud service and an on-premises option, deliver strong defense mechanisms against a variety of threats, including malware, impersonation emails, and business email compromise (BEC). The system's sophisticated email filtering addresses spam, graymail, and other unwanted communications effectively. Notably, it maintains seamless email functionality even during server disruptions. Esteemed as the leading email gateway in the market, Proofpoint captures a broad spectrum of threats that might slip past other security measures. By leveraging advanced machine learning technology through NexusAI, Email Protection adeptly classifies various email types and detects threats that do not contain harmful payloads, including impostor emails, thanks to its Advanced BEC Defense feature. Furthermore, users can automatically tag potentially dubious emails to raise awareness and recover any email within moments, which ensures a thorough approach to email security. This multi-layered defense strategy not only offers organizations reassurance but also supports them in navigating the intricate landscape of email communications while minimizing risks. The comprehensive features work together to create a secure environment where email interactions can thrive without constant worry.
