Proofpoint, Inc. announced the global availability of Proofpoint Prime Threat Protection, the industry's first and only comprehensive human-centric cybersecurity solution that brings together previously disparate critical threat defense capabilities--protection against multistage attacks across digital channels, impersonation protection, and risk-based employee guidance and education--in a single integrated solution. Built to protect people wherever and however they work, Proofpoint Prime helps foster long-term resilience against today's emerging attacks while reducing cyber risk and operational costs for organizations. As organizations face an overwhelming array of fragmented, siloed and reactive cybersecurity tools, Proofpoint Prime is the industry's only integrated solution that unifies threat defense and human risk management into seamless workflows that span the full attack chain.
Proofpoint Prime consolidates real-time threat detection, response, and behavior-based guidance across communication and digital channels to lower operational overhead and costs, accelerate time to response, and equip security teams for a future powered by AI-driven security automation. In today's expanding digital workspace, where 90% of breaches involve the human element, threat actors exploit people however they work--via email, cloud apps, messaging, browsers, file sharing, collaboration tools, and social media. In addition to targeting multiple channels, they also use a variety of techniques spanning social engineering, malicious links, impersonation, and compromised accounts to bypass traditional, fragmented defenses as part of their multistage attacks.
Most also rely on standalone security awareness platforms that are disconnected from real threat activity, resulting in minimal behavior change and poor operational efficiency for security teams. Organizations spend millions managing these siloes while critical tasks like incident triage, takedown, and user remediation are often delayed or overlooked due to complexity and staffing gaps. Unlike disparate tools that treat threats and human behaviors as separate challenges, Proofpoint Prime changes this dynamic by bringing them together in intelligent workflows--transforming signals into actionable risk insights, streamlining operations, and delivering scalable protection. The result: stronger threat prevention, reduced costs, faster response times, and lasting human resilience.
Organizations that unify their defenses with a single human-centric security solution have saved $2.7 million on average in reduced risk exposure and avoided $390,000 in operational costs. Proofpoint Prime simplifies deployment with pre-built integrations and licensing efficiencies, offering an unmatched economic model for modern security teams.
