Comparison Guide: Proofpoint Enterprise vs. McAfee Email Gateway - Registration

Email is unquestionably the primary form of business communications. Unfortunately it is also one of the most vulnerable channels for security attacks, data leakage, and fraud. To protect against the ever-changing nature of email security threats, email security solutions must be constantly updated and improved. Spammers and criminal syndicates are continually evolving their tactics, and email defense systems must keep pace—or, better yet, keep one step ahead.

This white paper examines recent trends in spam and malware and the resulting requirements for enterprise email security. Then, drawing on customer testimonials and on-site test results, the paper examines the effectiveness of McAfee Email Gateway to protect enterprise customers against spam and email-borne malware. For contrast, the paper compares the McAfee solution to Proofpoint Enterprise, Proofpoint’s email security and compliance platform. It will demonstrate:

• Why the latest trends in spam, malware, phishing and blended threats require new, more sophisticated approaches to email security.
• The current technical and market requirements you should evaluate when considering alternatives to your current email security solution.
• Why your legacy McAfee Email Gateway (formerly known as Ciphertrust Ironmail or Secure Mail) may be making your organization vulnerable to attack.
