Email defenses have reduced phishing impact and save our soc team significant investigation time
Proofpoint Enterprise Data Loss Prevention (DLP) should probably add something more into their case management process. There are certain things that Proofpoint lacks regarding case management. When incidents come in, it classifies a specific subcategory of what that incident is and creates a ticket for the SOC team. If they could provide more details on the type of incident filing in case management, that would be helpful. This is a hard ask because it requires some form of backend automation workflow. Many tools are starting to adopt their own automation workflows, which is pretty cool. Occasional mishaps arise related to users' devices affected by Proofpoint or when Proofpoint isn't logging specific device actions. The insider risk tool has been utilized effectively, which monitors employee actions every ten seconds, but there have been mishaps. Additionally, there are moments when specific servers require updates due to mismatched deployment updates, though this is not considered difficult because endpoint engineering counterparts assist, especially during Proofpoint calls.
