User Testimonials
	Cisco Secure Email Threat Defense	FileWall
Likelihood to Recommend	With Cisco Secure Email, we can easily protect our business email system again all manner of attacks. In addition, we are able to send emails securely thanks to encryption and decryption features. It's, therefore, ideal for businesses that value email privacy, such as those in the accounting industry, hospitals, and law firms, among other users. BS Boniface Sacha Senior Account Manager Read full review	FileWall is well suited for legal departments because they are receiving a lot of attachments daily and it is very difficult to work in complete safety. We have some more experienced users that are not used to paying attention to attachments, and FileWall is very useful in these situations to prevent hacker attacks. Kostadin Lukov Implementation engineer Read full review
Pros	Manages Junk Mail Well-We configured and tested our configuration to filter out the majority of junk mail hitting our inboxes. Manages Graymail-We configured and tested our Cisco ETD for graymail filtering and reduced the amount of unwanted advertising and other legitimate emails. Creating unique policies that were tailored to block or allow emails from certain senders. Stopped malicious email traffic (e.g., malicious attachments and links) with rules for identifying and stripping potentially malicious attachments or links. Allows easy configuration for other email security measures such as SPF, DMARC and DKIM. Cisco engineers provide an annual free security health check. We took advantage of several security health checks where Cisco certified engineers go over the security setting of our Cisco ETD. We were provided a written report that highlighted strengths and weaknesses of our Cisco ETD setup. Monitoring email traffic flow is almost overwhelming with the amount of information you can obtain from the portal. This gives valuable information to IT staff in terms of volume and type of emails the company is receiving. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Easy to implement, it is one click to activate service.

Cons	The web interface is definitely dated The software updates to the user interface and the documentation online are not congruent.

SK Sanjay Kumar Office 365 Consultant Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	There is a 50/50 chance that we will renew. We are in the middle of moving from on-prem to the cloud so we may not need it once we are fully migrated. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	No answers on this topic
Usability	Good interface, easy to use and set up. If there were any issues, there is very good documentation and videos that one can follow for additional setup and best practices.

Alternatives Considered	Cisco SETD, with a broad deployment and full integration with Microsoft 365 gives us a strong protection, especially where we can leverage its strengths: Microsoft‑365 integration, mailbox remediation, policy enforcement, and your visibility across Cisco tools. Proofpoint is better around user awareness (warning tags etc.), and continuity/archiving. Considering that we have a full Cisco stack, choosing Proofpoint would come with higher cost, learning curve, possible redundancy of features, licensing complexity. Incentivized João Paulo Chief Information Security Officer Read full review	FileWall can be used in addition to all listed solutions as well as stand-alone attachment protection solution. FileWall has great price for SMBs and easy to implement and configure. If you are looking for a great attachment protection solution - FileWall will be your best option.
