Also it can defend against the business email compromise impersonation technique. It is a complete solution for all email attacks. It filters for the bad, malicious attachments. If there is any executable file, it can be deleted. It is a good, complete solution."
"It was easy to set up."
"The solution is very user-friendly."
"FireEye Email Security helps us prevent spam and phishing emails and all other business-compromised email attacks."
"We have had very good results from the use of FireEye Email Security. We are very comfortable with this technology, but I don't know if it's necessary to move into the cloud, we will check other technologies and study them. Additionally, the solution has good integration."
"We can control this solution from the cloud and are able to access it from wherever we are."
"The product helps reduce the number of malicious emails reaching the user's inbox."
"I like FireEye's filtering, spam digests, and its advanced threat review of email flow. It also has a broad range of riskware rules you can deploy."

"Proofpoint Email Protection has a new approach to email security with its API feature. Currently, it only works with Office 365.

"I would like to see this solution become more flexible."
