Extend phishing protection beyond email
Proofpoint blocks malicious URLs delivered in any messaging, collaboration or social media application. Your users are protected from advanced phishing attacks anywhere, anytime. With a unified view of threats across all your digital channels, you can better track and mitigate phishing threats faster before they harm your organization.
Accelerate detection and response to account takeovers
Proofpoint defends against account takeover attacks, even those that bypass MFA. It accelerates investigations with a centralized view of both pre- and post-account takeover activities and automates responses, reducing attacker dwell time while saving you time.
Enhance visibility into human risk
The shared threat intelligence between our Core Email Protection and User Protection solutions helps identify targets and high-risk users. By evaluating user behavior, training and phishing test performance and the risk of account takeovers, Proofpoint allows you to apply adaptive security controls to further mitigate risk.
Key features of Proofpoint User Protection
Identify high-risk users
Obtain visibility into high-risk individuals, including not only your Very Attacked People™ and top clickers, but also imminent targets who are highly targeted and vulnerable to threats. You can prioritize security efforts and apply adaptive controls to users who most need it.
Automate risk-based learning
Drive behavior change by automatically enrolling high-risk users, such as Very Attacked People, top clickers and riskiest users who are highly vulnerable, in targeted security awareness activities. With threat-guided content and in-the-moment training, you can guide your users to make safer choice when faced with threats.
Detect and respond to account takeovers with confidence
Proofpoint alerts you when an account takeover has occurred. By correlating suspicious login and account activity with email threats, we accurately identify compromised accounts in real time. With centralized visibility into a wide range of suspicious activities pre- and post-account compromise, the solution can automatically respond to minimize attacker dwell time.
Block malicious URLs across multiple platforms
Protect users from malicious links delivered through collaboration tools such as Microsoft Teams, Slack and Zoom. Powered by our industry-leading Nexus threat intelligence, our solution analyzes URLs in real time and blocks those identified as malicious. It safeguards your users by preventing access to harmful websites and content.
Reduce risk with adaptive controls
Easily apply adaptive security controls tailored to users with varying risk profiles. These controls include auto-enrollment in additional security education based on targeted threats and automatic enforcement of stricter remediation policies, such as revoking access to third-party apps, resetting password, reversing malicious mailbox rule changes and more.
The integrated platform gives us a powerful technical solution and an improved process for risk reduction.
