Moving to the cloud with O365 can help improve your productivity and the ability of your employees to connect. Though, for many, it can also make your organization more vulnerable to malicious emails and threats across devices and networks. Improved productivity, convenience and collaboration is not worthwhile if it means leaving your network vulnerable to email security threats.
Advanced threats are growing at a frightening pace, and a significant number of users still open the malicious URLs and attachments they receive in illegitimate messages. At the same time, malware used in malicious URL attacks are detected by less than 10% of traditional Anti- Virus and reputation solutions, even hours after an attack. modusCloud offers you time-of-click URL scanning, targeted phishing protection and attachment defense, meaning you can’t fall prey to the email threats that plague so many businesses today.
Proofpoint Essentials catches hundreds of malicious emails that pass through Office 365’s filters. Where many targeted attacks and malicious spam may make it through O365’s email protection, Proofpoint Essentials offers you enhanced protection against phishing, malware, Business Email Compromise attacks and more. Proofpoint Essentials’ Advanced Threat Protection pricing is also advantageous when compared to O365’s, while also reducing the time devoted by IT to addressing malicious emails.
While the cloud is meant to be durable and flexible, outages still occur. Despite Microsoft’s resources, multiple hours-long Office 365 outages affect North America, Europe and Australia every year. While these can be costly – especially to small businesses closing critical accounts – Proofpoint Essentials’ emergency inbox allows any O365 business to continue running through outages, without interruption.
Healthcare, Legal, Financial and more organizations need to be conscientious in their choice of Email Archiving solutions for regulatory purposes, and Proofpoint Essentials email archiving solutions use Office 365’s Journaling feature to maintain every email in a tamper-proof, offsite, 10-year unlimited-storage archive. Email Archiving can ensure compliance, easy search and eDiscovery for many kinds of businesses, giving them the confidence to recover information, save on storage and face legal challenges as they emerge.
