Symantec Mail Security for Microsoft Exchange vs. Proofpoint Adaptive Email Security

Symantec Mail Security for Microsoft Exchange (SMSMSE) combines Symantec anti-malware technology with advanced heuristics and file reputation to provide real-time protection for email against viruses, spyware, phishing, and other malicious attacks. For additional protection, SMSMSE offers Symantec Premium AntiSpam (additional license), powered by Brightmail technology. Together, these protections help to stop 99 percent of incoming spam with less than one false positive per million.

The Tessian Cloud Email Security Platform intelligently protects against advanced threats and data loss on email, while reducing security teams' workloads, and coaching people about security threats in the moment. Using Behavioral Intelligence Modeling and machine learning, Tessian automatically detects and prevents threats that legacy Secure Email Gateways fail to stop, including advanced phishing attacks, email impersonation, accidental data loss and insider threats. We ensure security teams can work smarter, not harder.
