| Titre | Why a Global Bank Chose Proofpoint Adaptive Email DLP to Modernize Its Email Data Security |
| Texte | In today\'s evolving cybersecurity landscape, large financial institutions are under pressure to keep sensitive data safe and prevent potential email data breaches. One type of data loss incident that\'s difficult to stop is misdirected emails. Not only do these emails put sensitive data at risk, but they also require companies to use valuable resources to remediate. Legitimate messages sent to incorrect recipients happen all the time. And they\'re difficult to stop because standard rule-based data loss prevention (DLP) tools don\'t typically flag them. For one of Africa\'s largest financial services groups, this type of data loss incident had become a recurring challenge. In this blog post, we share insights from the bank about why it chose to take an adaptive, human centric approach to data loss with Proofpoint Adaptive Email DLP. The problem: gaps in the existing email data security There were several problems with the bank\'s approach to email security. But the most pressing issue was its risk of misdirected emails and misattached files. While the bank had implemented rule-based DLP software to monitor outgoing messages, these tools were not enough. “Before Proofpoint Adaptive Email DLP, we didn\'t have clear visibility into all types of data loss incidents in email or the true size of the problem,” said the senior manager of information security at the bank. “We believed it was happening, but we didn\'t have a solution or strategy in place to help us proactively combat it.” The situation was exacerbated by regulations. The bank needed to comply with POPIA (Protection of Personal Information Act), which is South Africa\'s version of the GDPR. As regulatory scrutiny increased, the bank realized that it needed to urgently modernize its DLP strategy. It needed to better protect its known sensitive data as well as prevent unknown risks like misdirected emails and misattached files. The solution: Proofpoint Adaptive Email DLP The information security team had a clear vision of what was needed: a system that automatically detected and prevented data loss in real time with minimal maintenance and disruption. After evaluating their options, they selected Proofpoint Adaptive Email DLP. Proofpoint Adaptive Email DLP uses cutting-edge behavioral AI and machine learning to analyze and learn from more than 12 months of a company\'s email data. As a result, it can understand normal employee email behaviors. This includes who employees regularly communicate with and how they handle sensitive data. The system then continuously monitors email traffic and flags potential incidents such as misdirected emails, misattached files or unauthorized data exfiltration. Traditional email DLP systems rely on static rules. Compare that to Proofpoint. Our solution adapts to evolving communication patterns. So, if a user sends an email that contains sensitive data to an unusual recipient, or they attach a file that they wouldn\'t typically share, the system identifies this anomaly and triggers a real-time warning for both the employee and the security team. The tool works silently in the background without impeding productivity. The seamless deployment One of the standout features of Proofpoint Adaptive Email DLP was its seamless integration into the bank\'s existing infrastructure. The solution deployed in minutes and began providing protection within hours. There was no need for extensive setup, no servers to build or rules to update. As a result, the system has been incredibly low maintenance, requiring little attention from the bank\'s security team. "Adaptive Email DLP was very easy to deploy and has been incredibly low maintenance," said the bank\'s data loss prevention manager. "It\'s not a tool we have to worry about keeping up and running from an infrastructure perspective. It\'s one less thing the security team has to be concerned about. That was and continues to be a huge selling point for us.” This ease of implementation allowed the security team to focus on other cri |
