Proofpoint Inc. debuted a new program at Black Hat USA 2026 that makes a portfolio of OEM-ready threat intelligence and detection capabilities available for technology providers, cybersecurity vendors, managed services providers, and platform companies.
Accelerating OEM innovation with trusted threat intelligence
The Proofpoint OEM Program formalizes and expands the cybersecurity providers’ OEM business.
It provides partners with a clearer path to integrate Proofpoint’s proven security solutions into their own offerings.
The program reduces time, cost, and operational complexity of building and maintaining global-scale threat intelligence capabilities in-house, while helping partners accelerate product roadmaps, differentiate their solutions, and deliver better security outcomes for customers.
The program also supports embedded product scenarios spanning network security, firewalls, vulnerability and exposure management, SIEM, XDR, SOAR, managed detection and response, threat intelligence platforms, AI security solutions, and other customer-facing security workflows.
Proofpoint brings OEM partners additional security capabilities and clearer engagement
Further, Proofpoint is introducing Active Exploits Protections to its program. The company will expand its OEM offerings with additional OEM-ready solutions over time.
“Proofpoint has supported OEM relationships for years, and the Proofpoint OEM Program now provides technology partners with a clearer, more formal way to engage with us,” said Stan de Boisset, SVP, Global Channels, Proofpoint.
“By making Proofpoint Active Exploits Protection available through a dedicated OEM program, we’re helping partners accelerate innovation, differentiate their products, and deliver more prioritized, explainable, and AI-ready security experiences for their customers. We’re open for OEM business today and will continue expanding the portfolio as new offerings become ready for market.”
What it means for partners and providers
Proofpoint’s OEM Program enables partners to leverage mature intelligence and detection backed by Proofpoint’s research and operational expertise – as opposed to requiring them to build and operate extensive threat intelligence infrastructure.
Partners can enrich alerts with trusted context, improve investigation workflows, support actionable reporting, and build AI-assisted security experiences grounded in continuously updated intelligence.
The program offers an accelerated path to market for technology providers, while allowing engineering teams to focus on differentiated platform capabilities rather than maintaining global-scale intelligence operations.
Additionally, end customers will gain more relevant threat context, improved prioritization, richer investigations, and more transparent AI-assisted security experiences.
