The best part of Proofpoint Threat Response is the Auto-Pull feature. Being able to pull an email back from a user's mailbox is very useful, yet I have noticed that not a lot of organizations use this kind of feature.

If something's pulled and then it's later declared a false positive, it will automatically restore. They also take automatic feeds from their advanced threat detection modules.

It has reduced our manual efforts to remove emails from each user's inbox, and in this case we do not have to ask our IT department or users to do so.
