Overview
Even with advanced email protection tools, a small percentage of malicious messages still end up in users’ inboxes. Our PhishAlarm® phishing button empowers users to report phishing emails and other suspicious messages with one mouse click, and PhishAlarm® Analyzer helps response teams identify and remediate the most pressing threats. Both tools are integral to Proofpoint’s innovative Closed-Loop Email Analysis and Response (CLEAR) solution.
PhishAlarm and PhishAlarm Analyzer Features and Benefits
A User-Friendly Report Phishing Button
Knowledgeable users are key to identifying—and stopping—phishing attacks that slip through perimeter technology. A simple but effective email client add-in, PhishAlarm® makes it easy for your users to report phishing, dramatically reducing the duration and impact of an active phishing attack. A valuable addition to security awareness training, PhishAlarm® also reinforces positive behaviour by immediately thanking users (via a pop-up message or email) to report phishing and suspicious emails.


Time-Saving Threat Prioritisation
A companion to PhishAlarm®, PhishAlarm® Analyzer provides a real-time ranking of reported phishing emails in order of threat potential, allowing your response team to save time by focusing on the most imminent and dangerous threats within your network. While other tools rank reported messages based on the users’ level of “trustworthiness” and “accuracy,” PhishAlarm® Analyzer classifies an email’s content using standard security indicators of compromise (IOCs), taking into account known threat vectors obtained from established databases and technical resources.
