Securing Retail Email Communications

Retailers face considerable pressure—caught between the often competing demands of Wall Street and Main Street. Customer sophistication, fueled in part by the Internet and e-commerce, has never been higher. Sustaining profitable growth has become increasingly complex. The Internet and email are essential tools for streamlining interactions between customers, partners, and suppliers. Yet without appropriate email security, messaging systems can introduce productivity-draining nuisances or worse—the loss of intellectual property or other confidential digital assets.

Proofpoint addresses the unique needs of retailers with a comprehensive, zero-administration and highly flexible solution for protecting messaging systems from email-borne threats. Proofpoint has enabled some of the world's largest retailers to stop spam, viruses, network attacks, and breaches in confidential or sensitive information.

Stop spam in its tracks

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

Flexible deployment options

Available as an enterprise software solution or as a secure, hardened appliance, Proofpoint's messaging security solutions are designed for deployment flexibility and ease-of-use. The Proofpoint Messaging Security Gateway and Proofpoint Protection Server are the only true enterprise-grade anti-spam software 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 administration with full operational visibility.

Easy administration

Complete end-user control

Easy-to-understand, end-user reports and controls, such as Proofpoint's end-user digest and personalized safe- and block-lists, give each user complete control over their own anti-spam preferences.

Always up-to-date protection
