Microsoft 365 has solid built-in security — but it wasn't designed to stop today's sophisticated BEC attacks, zero-day malware, and targeted spear-phishing. Proofpoint Essentials adds the multi-layered defense layer that fills those gaps.
Built for IT Directors, Operations Managers, and Business Owners who want enterprise-grade email protection without enterprise-level complexity or cost.
Microsoft 365 includes solid baseline protection — but it's designed for breadth, not depth. Built-in filters miss zero-day threats, sophisticated BEC attacks, and targeted spear-phishing campaigns specifically crafted to bypass standard detection.
Proofpoint Essentials adds attachment sandboxing, URL rewriting at click-time, and AI-based impersonation detection as a second layer — sitting directly in your mail flow before messages ever reach user inboxes.
Everything you get when Proofpoint Essentials layers on top of your existing Microsoft 365 environment.
Multi-layered defense combining Microsoft 365's native filters with Proofpoint's zero-day malware detection and targeted attack prevention — catching what Microsoft alone misses.
Fully transparent integration. Users continue working in Outlook and Teams without any workflow changes — they just stop seeing spam, phishing, and malware.
Our certified consultants handle everything from DNS configuration to policy tuning, typically completing the full integration in 2–4 hours during off-peak hours.
Unified dashboard for managing both Microsoft 365 and Proofpoint settings, with real-time threat intelligence and detailed reporting in one place.
Rest assured, your email archiving requirements and data loss prevention — built into every Proofpoint plan.
Proactive monitoring, immediate incident response, and regular security updates from Iron Cove's managed security team — long after deployment day.
Iron Cove designs each deployment around your size, compliance requirements, and budget — not a one-size-fits-all configuration.

100+ users
Larger organizations face sophisticated, targeted spear-phishing and BEC attacks that basic Microsoft filtering isn't designed to stop.
