Understanding Core Email Protection, API Integration, and Adaptive Email DLP
This whitepaper details Proofpoint’s Core Email Protection platform, emphasizing its role in detecting advanced threats across predelivery, click-time, and postdelivery stages. It outlines how APIs and adaptive data loss prevention (DLP) strengthen email security by providing real-time visibility, anomaly detection, and seamless integration with Microsoft 365. The report highlights evolving risks like business email compromise, credential theft, and human error-driven misdirected emails. Adaptive DLP is positioned as a critical safeguard against accidental and malicious data leaks, using behavioral AI to secure sensitive content. Ultimately, it argues for end-to-end, people-centric defense strategies that align email security with compliance and business resiliency goals.
