Proofpoint has been selected as the winner in the Premier Security Company, Email Security, and Cloud Security Solutions categories for the 2021 CISO Choice Awards, making this the second straight year Proofpoint was recognized as the Premier Security Company.
Winning across three categories is great recognition, and to receive this honor from a judging panel of highly regarded security executives is further validation of Proofpoint’s market leading solutions.
This recognition underscores that our people-centric approach to cybersecurity and compliance makes Proofpoint truly unique. As attackers shift to targeting people, we believe the most effective way to reduce risk is to protect people from the threats targeting them, often through email and cloud vectors. We provide our customers with deep visibility into who the most attacked people are, how they’re targeted, who are vulnerable to those attacks, and how to protect them more effectively.
We also help organizations identify and quickly respond to data loss resulting from negligent, compromised, or malicious users because data doesn’t lose itself. There’s always a user involved – so a people-centric approach can succeed where prior solutions failed. Our approach delivers necessary cloud-based protection across all major channels regardless of a user’s location, communication method, or regulation requirements.
