“Over the last two years, the move to the cloud and accelerated digital transformation has expanded the attack surface for enterprises, and with it, the need for organisations to partner with trusted cybersecurity vendors,” said Alex Lei, Senior Vice President, Asia Pacific and Japan at Proofpoint. “Proofpoint is committed to its 100% channel go-to market strategy, and we’re excited to recognise our partners who have demonstrated excellence in keeping organisations secure when they need it most, with Proofpoint’s people-centric approach to cybersecurity.”
