Proofpoint Privacy Policy Enforcement
While there are best practices in data protection that can be leveraged, every organization has unique requirements, necessitating adjustments to any pre-configured policy.
Proofpoint Enterprise Privacy contains a number of pre-built email policies that represent both best practices for corporate data protection as well as a number of regulatory requirements, such and the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) for healthcare organizations and the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) for retailers and processors of credit card transactions. Trigger conditions are transparent to administrators, who can easily customize and tune any email policy quickly and easily to adapt to the organization’s unique environment.
