Why Teams Choose Cyberhaven over Proofpoint
1
Comprehensive Data Lineage
Cyberhaven tracks the full history of data, including origin, interactions, modifications, and derivative works. Proofpoint lacks this capability, relying only on isolated data inspection.
2
Modern Unified Solution
Cyberhaven offers a unified, purpose-built data security platform. Proofpoint's fragmented portfolio, built through decades of mergers and acquisitions, results in disjointed tools that are difficult to integrate. and context to reduce false positives by 90%. Proofpoint’s reliance on older technology and limited context leads to more frequent and inaccurate alerts.
3
Actionable Insights with Context
Cyberhaven delivers vital insights by combining content inspection with data lineage, enabling accurate data protection decisions. Proofpoint’s limited contextual capabilities result in a less actionable solution.
Recognized Innovator
Staying ahead of the competition means guarding against insider threats. Cyberhaven gives us visibility into how data flows within our company and stops insider threats in real time.

Combines lineage and content to reduce false positives by over 90%, saving analysts time and effort.
High false positive rates due to limited contextual analysis, increasing operational burden.
Unified Modern Platform
A seamless DDR solution integrating DLP and IRM, purpose-built for modern data security.
Fragmented legacy tools from decades of acquisitions lead to poor integration and usability.
Lower Total Cost of Ownership
Modern architecture minimizes operational overhead and simplifies maintenance.
High TCO driven by legacy technology, disjointed systems, and complex maintenance needs.
OS Support
Complete data protection across all three major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Apple’s macOS, and Linux.
Windows-focused with limited support for macOS and no support for Linux.
Exact Data Match (EDM)
Supports exact data matching, allowing critically sensitive data to be specified and scanned for.
Does not support exact data matching per documentation.
Faster Innovation
Continuously updated and built with modern use cases in mind, keeping pace with evolving threats.
Innovation has slowed significantly due to organizational changes and talent attrition.
Enhanced Blocking Capabilities
