Secure Email Communications from both Inbound and Outbound Threats

Across the spectrum of government agencies—at the federal and state and local levels—runs a common theme of "doing more with less." The Internet certainly helps government agencies deliver better services at a lower cost. Yet the need to communicate with vast numbers of citizens represents a highly open pipeline for spam, content security breaches and other network threats.

Proofpoint enables government institutions to secure email from both inbound and outbound threats. Proofpoint's comprehensive solution includes the most effective anti-spam solution on the market, powered by Proofpoint MLX, our breakthrough content scanning technology based on advanced machine learning techniques.

Total Protection from Incoming Spam, Virus, and Phishing Attacks

Proofpoint protects government agencies from the resource-draining threats and attacks that are an unfortunate reality of today's email messaging systems. The Proofpoint Messaging Security Gateway and Proofpoint Protection Server stop inbound spam and virus attacks at the gateway—before they overload users' inboxes or systems resources—reducing the threat of downtime or failure.

Impenetrable Email Firewall Defense Against Network Attacks

Proofpoint Email Firewall provides added SMTP-level perimeter for an extra level of security and effectiveness on top of the anti-spam power of Proofpoint's MLX-based content scanning technology. Proofpoint Email Firewall adds connection-level security features that monitor the type of activity and the content of messages associated with specific IP addresses, learns which IP addresses are sending harmful content, and determines appropriate actions to prevent damage.

Ensure Outgoing Emails are Secure and Compliant

Proofpoint provides comprehensive content filtering, monitoring and policy enforcement capabilities. Proofpoint's Content Security Suite provides the most effective way to ensure that outbound messages are completely secure.

Pre-defined rules automatically detect for confidential or protected information.
Non-compliant communications are acted upon, where other solutions simply generate a report or alert. Non-compliant emails can be redirected for appropriate action.
Messages destined for business partners that require secure communication can be automatically encrypted.

An Easy to Deploy and Maintain Anti-Spam Solution

Proofpoint's messaging security solutions are offered in two formats for deployment flexibility. The Proofpoint Messaging Security Gateway is an easy-to-install hardened appliance, and the Proofpoint Protection Server is a customizable software platform. Both are the only true enterprise-grade anti-spam solutions on the market today, and include features such as centralized web-based management, end-user personalization and more than 40 customizable and publishable reports providing zero-overhead administration with full operational visibility.
