Efficient protection = Efficient users
With spam ever evolving, more resources are required to keep ahead of the next new threat and this impacts productivity of the end user. When a smart system of protection is developed, you gain an upper-hand of not only current evolving threats, but on new releases also. Using a system of manual protection and one that asks the user what to allow is not effective protection at all. Protection should know what to do behind the scenes without affecting the user, basically the user does not even know what is happening and can continue with their work un-interrupted. When you display a pop-up to the user, this distracts and takes away their original focus on their work, sometimes forgetting that creative thought can be damaging, as they were in the ‘zone’ prior to protecting asking what to do!
