This data sheet highlights Proofpoint’s approach to detecting and preventing account takeovers (ATOs), a leading cause of data breaches. ATOs exploit compromised credentials to bypass MFA, enabling lateral movement, fraud, and exfiltration. Proofpoint combines behavioral analytics, machine learning, and threat intelligence to spot anomalies in login patterns, session hijacking, and privilege escalation. Automated response options include suspending accounts, forcing password resets, or removing malicious apps. The solution integrates with Proofpoint’s ecosystem to correlate signals across email, cloud, and identity layers, reducing dwell time and mitigating damage from compromised employee or supplier accounts.
