Enhance Subscriber Retention, Satisfaction, and Loyalty at Low Cost

Service providers must keep subscribers happy, but need to do so in the face of dwindling resources. Subscribers today expect service providers to provide a complete range of email protection services. Service providers need comprehensive solutions to meet those needs and to exceed subscriber expectations. Proofpoint provides email protection solutions that meet carrier-grade requirements for scalability, protection accuracy, ease-of-management and subscriber retention. Proofpoint allows services providers to increase subscriber switching costs and to generate new revenue opportunities from their existing installed base.

Carrier-Grade Performance and Dynamic Scalability

Proofpoint's P845 appliance is designed for even the most demanding service provider environments. More than 10,000 concurrent connections can be handled while scaling to hundreds of thousands of messages processed per hour, per appliance. Any number of appliances can be clustered and managed centrally to meet all redundancy and scalability requirements. With Proofpoint's Virtual Edition deployment model running on VMWare's ESX environment, capacity can be added dynamically to handle traffic spikes that exceed initial capacity planning and physical capacity limitations.

Confident Email Protection for Subscriber Retention

Proofpoint protects service providers from the productivity-draining threats and attacks that are an unfortunate reality of today's email messaging systems. The Proofpoint Messaging Security Gateway appliance (available as a hardware or virtual appliance) and Proofpoint Protection Server software stop inbound spam and virus attacks at the gateway, while reducing the risk of false positives and giving subscribers total control over their email inboxes.

Proofpoint's unrivalled anti-spam effectiveness is delivered by Proofpoint MLX machine learning technology, an advanced content filtering system developed by Proofpoint scientists and engineers. More than 99.6% of all incoming spam is stopped at a negligible false positive rate. What's more, Proofpoint's Dynamic Reputation service can shed up to 80% of all traffic at the connection level.

Easy to Manage and Administer

Proofpoint allows you to create policies on a global, domain, group, or individual subscriber basis. The policies you create can be very flexible, allowing your subscribers to select the strength of their spam and questionable email blocking. The Proofpoint Messaging Security Console provides a centralized, 100% web-based administration interface to Proofpoint's unified policy management framework, making it easy to monitor and control your messaging infrastructure, and to define and enforce messaging policies.

Add New Revenue Opportunities

With the policy flexibility and breadth of services available from Proofpoint, service providers can deliver value-added services beyond basic email protection against spam and viruses. This allows additional revenue channels with little investment up front. Proofpoint's dedicated Service Provider specialists are here to help.
