Key benefits of our Insider Threat Management product
Keep a closer eye — and tighter reins — on risky users
Prevent data exfiltration through common data loss channels such as USB, web upload, cloud sync, print and network share. With Proofpoint, you can ramp up endpoint controls based on each user’s risk profile. Go from monitoring to prevention when needed and educate users with pop-up notifications and in-the-moment coaching.
Get the facts, fast
See detailed behavior (and optional screenshots) of user activity for clear, irrefutable evidence that a user is careless, compromised or malicious.
Strike a balance between security and privacy
Privacy controls help avoid bias and meet compliance rules. Privacy-by-design controls integrate visibility, transparency, and user-centricity. You can strike the right balance between keeping the organization safe and maintaining user privacy.

Key features that contain insider threats
Activity timeline with user actions and context
Easy-to-understand timeline shows user interactions with data and behavior on the endpoint. See when users:
- Change a file extension
- Rename files with sensitive data
- Upload to an unauthorized website
- Copy to a cloud sync folder
- Install or run unauthorized software
- Conduct security admin activity
- Try to hide their tracks
- Browse to an unapproved website
Robust alert library. Immediate value.
Out-of-the-box alert libraries make setup easy so you can start getting value right away. You can use and adapt prebuilt insider threat scenarios or build rules from scratch.
Unified console
Gather telemetry from endpoints, email and cloud for multichannel visibility in a centralized dashboard. Intuitive visualizations help monitor risky activity, correlate alerts from different channels, manage investigations, hunt for threats and coordinate response with stakeholders. Dive deep into alerts to see the metadata and gain contextualized insights to quickly understand which events need a further look and which ones can be closed out.
Automated content scanning and classification
Identify sensitive data with data-in-motion content scanning that reads data classification labels created with Microsoft Information Protection. Augment your data classification efforts with proven best-in-class content detectors from Proofpoint Cloud DLP and Proofpoint Email DLP to protect your intellectual property.
Easy integration
Every security environment is different. To work seamlessly with your existing workflows, webhooks make it easy for your SIEM and SOAR tools to ingest alerts to help identify and triage incidents quickly. Automatic exports to your owned and operated AWS S3 storage makes even the most complex security infrastructures easy to integrate.
Flexible data controls
With data centers in the United States, Europe, Australia and Japan, we can help you meet data residency and storage rules. Separate endpoint data by geography with easy grouping. Limit analysts’ access to specific users’ data on a strict need-to-know basis and within a defined period of time.
Privacy controls
Privacy controls help your business meet compliance requirements and maintain trust with employees. You can hide a user’s identity to protect their privacy while eliminating bias in investigations. Data masking keeps data private and ensures data is only viewable on a need-to-know basis.
Sharing made simple
Data interactions, application use and screen captures of endpoint activity provide irrefutable evidence for investigations. Export records of risky activity across multiple events as a PDF and other common formats for easy sharing and cross-team collaboration.
