STRATEGIC OUTCOME:
The continued protection of email corresponds with City Council’s strategic outcome of Respected and Responsible by ensuring that Citywide email services remain secure and operational, as well as compliant with Cyber Security best practices.
REPORT:
Proofpoint email security and protection software protects against email viruses, encrypts emails, detects and blocks known and unknown threats, and detects, analyzes, and blocks advanced threats. Threat Response Auto-Pull (TRAP) allows messaging and security administrators to examine emails and shift harmful or undesired communications to quarantine. These email security modules have repeatedly proven their ability to protect against phishing attacks, malware, and other dangerous activities, contributing to the overall resilience of the City’s communication channels. As cyber threats evolve, Proofpoint continually upgrades its modules to address evolving risks, ensuring the City’s defenses remain effective against cyber attackers’ latest techniques.
