Has significantly reduced phishing threats through proactive monitoring and centralized visibility
A specific example of how Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade helps protect my organization from spam or phishing is when I log in to my management console of the Check Point tool and I open the email security blade logs, and I see all the overnight status of spam, what was the spam message volume, how many phishing attempts were made, and what kind of attachments were quarantined. This gives a real-time threat intelligence and advanced detection of phishing attacks. Check Point Anti-Spam and Email Security Software Blade offers a very easy-to-use dashboard and a proactive approach. Whatever trends are observed will directly inform us. The dashboard is very easy to understand. It gives a spam detection summary where it provides a visual representation through pie or bar graphs for spam suspected or clean mails. I also really appreciate the quarantine summary as it is very descriptive and gives a quick insight into the user complaints, compliance, and backlog. The system health, such as the CPU and update types of status of signatures, is also very well represented, so it does not cause any overload. Integration with SIEM or SOC dashboards, such as QRadar which we use in the organization, is very easy via Syslog exports. This gives centralized visibility, so you do not need to check with all the other devices as one device will give you a centralized overview. Smart events are also very configurable and will give us notifications or mitigation actions, which is beneficial.

Comprehensive email protection has secured sensitive communications and simplified threat management
Hornetsecurity 365 Total Protection is a good product right now, and the report is available in Spanish, which is beneficial for Latin Americans who speak Spanish. They can continue to improve the pricing because it is the most important aspect, as another solution is aggressive with a lower cost and includes everything. While Hornetsecurity 365 Total Protection is good right now, it would be better to improve the price. At the end, the client sees the price, and in Puerto Rico, the market is different than in the United States since here the client sees price independent of security. I have more effort to explain the difference between price versus technology, which is important because in Latin America, the price may not be the same as in the US due to the company's increase not being the same volume. When clients have many mailboxes, the price is more important than the technology. I do not know why, but this really happens.
