Cloud Computing for Maximum Email Security

Proofpoint Webinar Replay

After a sharp drop in November 2008, spam volume has quickly returned to previous highs. Many organizations saw a 30% to 40% increase in spam during the first weeks of 2009. This rapid influx of unwanted email is once again making spam filter effectiveness, connection management and capacity planning issues "top of mind" for enterprise IT departments.

At a time when email-borne threats continue to escalate while IT budgets shrink, enterprises seek new ways to improve security while simultaneously lowering costs. New cloud computing-based email security solutions—that multiply the power of the email security appliances you already own—can help you meet both objectives.

Listen to the replay of our web seminar, Cloud Computing for Maximum Email Security, to hear email security expert Rami Habal explain how your company can take advantage of the latest advances in hybrid email security technology to keep pace with massive spikes in email volume - without having to deploy new hardware infrastructure.

During this replay, you will learn:

• The latest spam volume trends and how they will impact your email security plans in 2009

• Best practices for capacity planning: Three approaches and their relative costs

• How you can eliminate 80%-90% of inbound spam and malicious connections--without having to add additional security appliances or other hardware components

• How a hybrid on-premises/in-the-cloud approach can increase the ROI from your existing email security investments
