SUNNYVALE, Calif., Nov. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Proofpoint, Inc., (http://www.proofpoint.com/) the leading provider of unified email security and data loss prevention solutions, today announced that LECO Corporation, a manufacturer of analytical instrumentation, has been using the Proofpoint Messaging Security Gateway™ appliance since 2004 to eliminate incoming spam and viruses. The always up-to-date spam protection provided by Proofpoint MLX™ machine learning technology offers the industry's highest effectiveness against hard-to-detect spam, ensuring that LECO Corporation employees only receive safe, valid email.

LECO Corporation's previous anti-spam and anti-virus solution required a large amount of administrator intervention and ongoing maintenance, as it routinely blocked legitimate inbound messages and was ineffective against the latest email-borne threats, resulting in numerous complaints from end users. With unacceptable amounts of spam reaching employees, LECO Corporation evaluated alternate messaging solutions and ultimately selected the Proofpoint Messaging Security Gateway to protect against inbound email threats.
