TD SYNNEX and Proofpoint, the leading provider of cybersecurity solutions, have formed a partnership aimed at extending the reach of the vendor’s enterprise-grade email security solutions to more partners in the UK channel.
► Two companies will work together to extend the reach of email gateway protection solutions to more security partners
► Full-on-boarding and expert support on offer from TD SYNNEX’s Security Practice
► Security Practice is geared-up and ready to hit the ground running with Proofpoint partners
Following an initial phase during which it has been ramping-up its own knowledge and capabilities, and supporting a limited number of Proofpoint partners, TD SYNNEX is now ready to reach out and engage with the wider security partner community, said Alison Nixon, business unit director – security, UK and Ireland, at TD SYNNEX.

‘Email gateway protection is a vital element of perimeter defences for all organisations now – from the largest global enterprise to small businesses with just a handful of workers – and we see huge potential for our security partners to grow with Proofpoint. We have sales and technical resources primed and ready to support partners, so we are ready to hit the ground running. We’ll be looking to work both with existing partners and to bring on-board new partners, to capitalise on the strong and growing reputation that Proofpoint has for providing rock-solid email protection.’
Proofpoint joins a formidable line-up of leading security solutions that are now available from TD SYNNEX. Its dedicated UK Security Practice has a team of more than 40 experts who provide pre-sales business development and technical support to partners. It also offers a range of managed security services and, through the Practice Builder methodology, provides enablement and competency training that helps partners develop their own expertise and deliver value-added service to their own customers.
Proofpoint’s Email Protection gateway solution can be deployed as a cloud service or on-premises. It catches both known and unknown threats that others miss. Powered by Proofpoint’s own advanced machine learning technology, it detects and blocks all kinds of threats and filters out unwanted content and messages.
In addition to Email Protection, Proofpoint’s range includes leading Data Loss Prevention (DLP) and Cloud Apps Security Broker (CASB) offerings, and other solutions that help organisations protect their systems from all kinds of threats, all of which are available from TD SYNNEX. Proofpoint’s Security Awareness Training is also available via TD SYNNEX. This can be used to help organisations raise knowledge of how to minimise risk when using email and online services – this is also available from TD SYNNEX.
