Fortune 500 Packaging Giant Boosts Threat Detection 20x with Abnormal, Replacing Proofpoint

Supply Chain Risks: Extensive vendor networks increase vulnerability to supply chain attacks, requiring robust monitoring.

IP Security: Proprietary packaging designs and data attract cyber-espionage, highlighting the need for IP protection.

Phishing/BEC Threats: High-value transactions make packaging companies prime targets for phishing and business email compromise.

Missed Threats: During a 30-day trial, Proofpoint overlooked 1,246 malicious emails that Abnormal identified, addressing crucial detection gaps and significantly strengthening security.

Critical Delays: Proofpoint addressed only 4.8% of threats identified by Abnormal, with an average response time of 5.25 hours per attack, leaving the organization vulnerable to extended periods of risk.

Workforce Productivity Loss: Employees received around 106,000 graymail messages during the 30-day evaluation period, leading to cluttered inboxes and requiring significant time for manual deletion.

Superior Detection: Abnormal’s AI detected 20 times more attacks than Proofpoint over the 30-day period, significantly boosting security.

Increased Inbox Efficiency: Abnormal’s AI-powered filtering saved employees an estimated 278 hours per month by learning user preferences and reducing inbox clutter during the 30-day evaluation.

Fast, Seamless Integration: Abnormal integrated with Microsoft 365 in under 60 seconds, without extensive professional services.

Employee Productivity Gains: Abnormal’s AI filtering saved 544 hours in just 30 days by reducing graymail and blocking risky emails, with projected annual savings of 6,526 hours.

Enhanced Detection: Abnormal’s AI identified 20x more attacks in 30 days than Proofpoint, preventing potential annual losses of $1.4 million from undetected threats.

Increased Vendor Fraud Visibility: Abnormal’s VendorBase identified 335 high-risk vendor accounts vulnerable to abuse, a risk Proofpoint did not address effectively.
