Proofpoint NexusAI for Compliance: Solution Overview


Are false positives undermining your ability to supervise digital communications effectively to enable regulatory compliance? Are you struggling with mitigating corporate and regulatory risk, potentially exposing you to significant fines, a tarnished company or brand reputation and more? Is the number of emails, instant messaging, social media and other sources you need to supervise skyrocketing exponentially in volume, placing undue burden on your limited compliance resources? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you need to investigate Proofpoint NexusAI for Compliance.

NexusAI for Compliance augments Proofpoint Intelligent Supervision, helping you reduce false positives by up to 66% when compared with legacy supervision systems. Its machine learning models automate decision-making at scale for determining what can be removed from your review queues safely as low-risk content and how your supervision configuration could be optimized – for example, by automatically removing supervised content from known low-risk senders. The technology strives to remove the “noise” from your “compliance haystack”, so your teams can focus on meaningful sources of risk, rather than search for risk that is the proverbial “needle in a haystack”, which can prove to be quite costly to deploy.

Detecting Insider Threats with Proofpoint Insider Threat Management – Product Demo


Protecting against and detecting real-time insider threats and endpoint data loss is a challenge in most modern organizations.

So how do you address the challenge without overcomplicating your existing security systems? Discover Proofpoint Insider Threat Management (ITM).

Simply put, the Proofpoint Insider Threat Management platform is a people-centric approach to answering “what happened?” and “who did it?”

In this Proofpoint demo, watch how you can get real-time visibility, accurately detect and quickly respond to insider threat alerts and incidents.

In our ITM platform, get visibility into:
* Data activity: rename, cut, copy, paste, move, soft delete, download, upload and save etc. We collect this across USB, web, cloud sync folders, print jobs and endpoint
* User activity: On top of the data activity, we track user access and activity on desktop, virtual and web applications, cloud sync folders, endpoints and servers

Using pre-built insider threat rules, detect risky behavior across:
* Data exfiltration
* Accidental data movement
* Privilege abuse
* Application and server misuse
* Unauthorized endpoint activity
* Sharing account usage
* Virtual application and virtual desktop activity
* Anomalous system access
* Time fraud

Proofpoint ITM is built on a modern cloud-hosted SaaS architecture and lightweight endpoints agents. We empower organizations to identify user risk, detect and respond to insider threat incidents, and accelerate security incident response.
