Enables organizations to monitor the network and protect themselves from data leakage
The initial setup process is very simple and easy. We have no issues to do it for ourselves or our customers. The deployment takes less than 20 days. The integration is very simple. However, first, we must understand what we want to have on our network and what we want to prevent. If we don't have this information before we start the configuration, we will be lost. We must know what kind of protection we need in our company. We have LGPD in Brazil. It is similar to GDPR in Europe. It prevents any personal information from being linked to other companies without permission. We have to take care of the personal information of our customers, employees, and partners. To deploy the tool, we must understand what we need to do. We must download the whole package and have our infrastructure ready to receive it. We must get the SSL certification and start to configure our platform. When the process is finished, we must roll out a small portion of our network to ensure everything will be well. After that, we must do the full rollout.

Overall, Proofpoint Enterprise DLP is a strong platform, but there are areas for improvement to enhance usability and effectiveness. One challenge is policy complexity and lifecycle management. As DLP programs mature, policies become layered and interdependent, leading to frustrations such as rule overlap that causes multiple triggers on a single message. Limited visibility into policy hierarchy impacts, difficulty modeling how new rules interact with existing ones, and change management requiring careful validation can all be challenging. An improvement opportunity would be advanced policy simulation tools for conflict detection between rules and clear rule precedence visualization, which would help understand the source of issues. The administrator user experience can feel dense from an admin perspective, especially when managing multiple layered policies, handling rule precedence, troubleshooting overlapping triggers, and onboarding new administration. As DLP programs mature, policy environments become complex quickly. Improvement opportunities would include visual policy mapping, impact previews, easier bulk policy editing, simpler policy cloning with conflict detection, and smarter recommendations during policy creation that would be very beneficial. Regarding data discovery and risk posture visibility, improvements are needed. While email layer protection is robust, organizations need better visibility across their repositories. There is an opportunity for built-in sensitive data discovery scanning and risk exposure mapping to identify which business units handle more sensitive data. A data movement visualization dashboard could also be beneficial, transitioning from reactive DLP blocking to proactive data exposure intelligence, which would significantly increase maturity.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The product has a centralized console for everything."
"This solution helps classify what is confidential and what is not, allowing products to be installed at home if they do not contain confidential information."
"The main thing that I like about GTB is that it has a single agent for DLP and data classification. You can use the same agent. In terms of licensing too, it has a single license. When it comes to data classification, it supports open-source document platforms such as ChainSoft and OpenOffice."
"The monitoring features are valuable."
"I am impressed with the tool's ease of deployment."
"They have a fingerprint feature that is very awesome. OCR is very awesome to have too."
"The most valuable feature is we can develop what we want. If we have an old or new requirement, they are able to support us to develop it all within one month."
"When comparing GTB Technologies Inspector to other solutions you receive a good value for your money when considering all the features and benefits."
"The best features Proofpoint Enterprise DLP offers, which stand out to me, are the ease of use and integration into the current email gateway."
"Being from the consultant side, I can say that the customer was really happy with Proofpoint Enterprise DLP as is."
"Proofpoint Enterprise DLP has positively impacted my organization by improving the security posture of our data and containment within incidents, providing reassurance that PII has not leaked during times of incidents."
"Adaptive information protection has influenced my organization's approach to data security in a very good and positive manner."
"Proofpoint is definitely the best."
"Proofpoint Enterprise DLP's effectiveness in detecting and preventing data loss fundamentally lies in its ability to analyze user behavior and detect insider threats."
"Proofpoint adds value and proves its ROI based on the services they provide."
"Proofpoint Enterprise DLP is very important to our organization in maintaining our security posture as well as managing insider user risk."
 

Cons

"It would be great if they have information rights management (IRM) on the same agent."
"The performance could be better."
"The solution could improve by providing additional availability requirements."
"They have a roadmap for the Linux platform and Mac as well, and in the next quarter, they might have patch management also for Windows. However, they don't have that much for Linux and Mac. So, we need those things in Linux and Mac as well."
"The product needs to improve its support so that users can just log in and create tickets as opposed to sending emails. Sending emails is difficult to track. It also needs to work on its analytics platform."
"The tool should include better AI features."
"The solution’s performance must be improved."
"To stay competitive, they should expand to smartphones."
"Proofpoint Enterprise DLP definitely has a higher cost compared to other email security tools, but some good solutions come at a cost."
"The pricing for Proofpoint Enterprise DLP is a little bit on the higher end."
"In terms of improvements, I find there are some blind spots in Proofpoint Enterprise DLP; you can obviously add more channels for detection, and logging can be much improved, specifying exactly what action took place or what alert was generated."
"For improvement, I think adding more AI-powered features would be beneficial for Proofpoint Enterprise DLP."
"I rate Proofpoint Enterprise DLP a nine on a scale of one to ten because Microsoft Purview is truly a game changer."
"Usability has improved over the years; initially, it was difficult to navigate around the tooling, and my only other concern is around the number of products and how it's packaged up, as it gets a bit confusing at times."
"Overall, Proofpoint Enterprise DLP is a strong platform, but there are areas for improvement to enhance usability and effectiveness."
"Proofpoint Enterprise DLP can be improved; the UI can always use work, but I don't have any real frustration points at the moment."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They offer a lot of features in a single bundle. So, if you want to remove some features from GTB, you can remove those. You don't need to buy those, and the price will reduce accordingly. I am very happy with the pricing."
"When comparing GTB Technologies Inspector to other solutions you receive a good value for your money when considering all the features and benefits."
"The tool's pricing is affordable and based on the number of endpoints."
"Its price is very reasonable and competitive."
"The tool is not expensive."
"The tool has a fair price."
