Outback Steakhouse Grills Spam With Proofpoint

Tags: spam, productivity, email, infrastructure

Overview Like most companies today, Outback Steakhouse was plagued by unsolicited email. Roughly 80% of Outback Steakhouse's total inbound email was spam, which upset employees by limiting their productivity and exposing them to inappropriate content, while also putting pressure on IT infrastructure such as mail servers, severely straining IT resources. Outback Steakhouse evaluated several anti-spam solutions including a test deployment of a mail-server based solution that didn't provide the accuracy and end-user control that the company required. Outback Steakhouse then evaluated and deployed the Proofpoint Messaging Security Gateway appliance and immediately saw the elimination of spam and viruses from employee inboxes.
