"Proofpoint ITM and Endpoint DLP, is it right for you?"

5/5

What do you like best about Proofpoint Insider Threat Management?

Software is accessed entirely from a WebUI, which is easy to navigate and gives lots of information on the dashboards by default. You can quickly generate reports from any dashboard or query and configure automated reports for searches you run often.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Proofpoint Insider Threat Management?

The defaults are a little on the "noisy" side and take a bit of work to tune them to the environment, leading to a high number of "false positives" while the tool learns the environment and you tune it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Proofpoint Insider Threat Management solving and how is that benefiting you?

Reports, alerts and tracking for the following:

- Accounts are accessed or are used to access files from suspicious locations.

- Multiple failed logins or failed logins from suspicious locations.
