Yeah, that ProofPoint anit-spam thing is going to stop ALL the phishing/malware so we don't even need to train our employees how to recognize malware...I call BS.
We've gotten 4 malware emails, each to 100 plus users since going to ProofPoint. That is more than we've gotten with the Microsoft edge protection after a few custom rules. And the ProofPoint changes the emails enough so the Microsoft anit-spam rules don't work no more, nice.
My boss tells me it's okay because ProofPoint removes the malware. Again BS. Opened an attachment in one of the malwares delivered this morning and it immediately took my browser to a web page that my Malwarebytes went off on and stopped.
There were only 2 users that reported this mornings phishing attempt out of 147 that received it. Within 5 minutes I was able to move the messages to the trash for 136 users before they even saw them.
But that is still only doing reactive stuff and there are no means to do anything proactive to stop them from getting to inboxes in the first place.
