As enterprises move from AI experimentation to production deployment, security risks tied to data exposure, identity compromise and agent misuse are expanding rapidly, forcing organizations to rethink how they protect people, data and collaboration environments. Proofpoint is positioning itself at the intersection of AI, human-centric security and data protection, evolving from a point-product focus into a broader platform strategy designed to consolidate tools and reduce operational complexity for customers and partners. With the majority of its business now transacted through partners – a dramatic shift from a decade ago – the company is aligning its channel model to drive partner-sourced growth, incentivize platform adoption, strengthen deal protections and introduce performance-based back-end rebates that reward both net-new acquisition and long-term customer expansion. Stan de Bossiet, senior vice president of global channels, joins Larry Walsh on Changing Channels to discuss Proofpoint's new channel program, its objectives, and the implications for partners and customers alike.
