Even the Best Tools Leave Gaps: Here’s What You’re Missing

Encryption Features    | April 22, 2025

Here’s the hard truth: no single cybersecurity solution can cover it all.

And if you’re in a highly regulated industry handling sensitive data, you’ve probably felt the frustration—overwhelmed teams, compliance headaches, and systems that don’t play nice together. The future of secure communications isn’t about more tools—it’s about smarter connections.

Gone are the days of relying on a single vendor for everything. Instead, enterprises are assembling powerhouse combinations of specialty solutions—thinking like architects, not just buyers. And when it comes to email security, there’s a reason the Echoworx + Proofpoint [PDF]  duo stands out.

This isn’t just another laundry list of features. It’s about filling the gaps others can’t.

Seamless mail flow: Echoworx integration with Proofpoint email security

Why Echoworx + Proofpoint Works

1. Simplifying the Complex So You Can Breathe Easy

If managing encryption feels like pulling teeth, you’re not alone. Clunky manual processes, key management chaos, delays and backlogs are slowing businesses down everywhere.

That’s where Echoworx shines—streamlining encryption so it works for you, not against you. With integrations for Gmail and Outlook, encryption becomes effortless—no extra complexity for users. Built-in mobile optimization ensures secure, hassle-free communication on any device, while WCAG 2.0 Level AA accessibility standards make interactions inclusive for all audiences.

Multilingual support, including automated translations, lets your business communicate confidently across regions while staying compliant with language regulations.

Proofpoint, meanwhile, fortifies your defenses against phishing, ransomware, and advanced threats—it doesn’t just block attacks; it anticipates them. Together, this integration eliminates inefficiencies, holes in your workflow, and the frustration of disjointed solutions.

The result? Users and recipients barely notice the heavy lifting happening behind the scenes. No confusing processes. No device or mail client errors causing unnecessary support calls. Just intuitive, secure, and seamless communication that supports your business, not slows it down.

2. End-to-End Protection Where It Actually Counts

Your emails contain critical business information—contracts, customer data, and sensitive conversations—that demand robust protection. Proofpoint locks out the bad actors, while Echoworx wraps every message in encryption that adjusts to its destination.

With advanced encryption options like TLS with fallback, secure PDFs, automated PGP, and S/MIME certificate issuance, Echoworx adapts encryption to the recipient’s environment, maintaining secure delivery without manual intervention. Automated certificate management simplifies key lifecycles and ensures compliance with industry standards like AES-256, all built on AWS KMS with tamper-resistant hardware security modules (FIPS 140-3 Level 3). It’s protection where it matters most—without disrupting your day-to-day.

3. Compliance Without the Chaos

GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA, PCI DSS—the alphabet soup of compliance can feel like a minefield—but adding Echoworx to Proofpoint simplifies the process. Together, they deliver scalable security, keep you audit-ready, all without compromising usability.

Take email encryption, for example. While essential for protecting sensitive data, encryption can create blind spots in security monitoring. That’s where Echoworx stands out. By integrating with SIEM systems, Echoworx sends detailed encryption log activity to your SIEM, providing real-time visibility into encrypted email traffic. This enables you to track activity, detect anomalies, and respond to potential threats—seamlessly and without disrupting workflows.

By combining Echoworx encryption with Proofpoint’s capabilities, you can turn compliance from a challenge into an opportunity for smarter, stronger operations.

The Real Difference? We Solve What Others Can’t

This isn’t just about better security; it’s about eliminating your pain points entirely.

Take a global healthcare provider that used Echoworx to automate encryption across teams in multiple countries—saving them time, reducing errors, and ensuring compliance across the board. Or a financial institution that finally untangled their PGP & S/MIME nightmare, letting teams focus on business instead of chasing down keys.

The Future of Secure Communication Starts Here

For industries where the stakes are high—finance, healthcare, law—“good enough” doesn’t cut it. Leaders are rejecting one-size-fits-all security and building integrated systems that tackle today’s threats while preparing for tomorrow’s. The Echoworx-Proofpoint integration is more than just a pairing; it’s a game-changer.

Your organization deserves protection.

Your team deserves simplicity.

It’s time to rethink what email security can be.
