Adding Network Threat Detection Intelligence Without Building It Yourself
Building and maintaining high-quality network detection intelligence is expensive, specialized, and continuous. Proofpoint Emerging Threat Intelligence gives OEMs a proven detection-content foundation they can embed into products, platforms, appliances, sensors, cloud services, and managed offerings.
Join us to explore how OEMs can accelerate security product innovation, reduce time-to-market, and enhance detection capabilities without the burden of building and maintaining a threat research and detection content program. Learn how embedding Proofpoint Emerging Threat intelligence helps improve product efficacy, expand threat coverage, and allow engineering teams to focus on platform differentiation and customer value.
