Building on nearly a decade of Proofpoint expertise, Vircom is expanding its portfolio with Proofpoint 365 Total Protection, deeper automation, and a renewed commitment to helping MSPs and IT security teams protect Microsoft 365 customers and users.
For nearly 10 years, Vircom has worked closely with Proofpoint to help MSPs, channel partners, and IT security teams deliver trusted, cloud-based email security to the organizations they support.
The partnership began when Vircom selected Proofpoint Essentials as the path forward for customers and partners moving from Vircom’s own on-premises modusGate secure email gateway to a modern cloud-based security platform.
That decision helped shape the next chapter of Vircom. Since then, our teams have become one of the leading Proofpoint Essentials experts in the channel, supporting partners and customers through migrations, deployments, onboarding, support, billing, automation, and ongoing customer success.
Along the way, Vircom has developed more than 100 exclusive enhancements designed to make an already powerful platform even better for MSPs, partners, and the customers they serve.
A New Chapter: Proofpoint 365 Total Protection
Following Proofpoint’s acquisition of Hornetsecurity, Proofpoint is combining the strengths of Hornetsecurity’s Microsoft 365 security platform with the trusted capabilities of Proofpoint Essentials to launch Proofpoint 365 Total Protection.
The new offering is designed to support both MSPs and IT security teams, bringing together Microsoft 365 protection, email security, phishing and ransomware defense, backup, compliance, security awareness, and multi-tenant management in a unified platform.
Vircom is proud to be one of the first distributors of Proofpoint 365 Total Protection in North America. Just as we did with Proofpoint Essentials, we are bringing the same energy, technical depth, and partner-first mindset to this new addition to the portfolio.
Built to Help Partners and IT Security Teams Succeed
Vircom’s commitment goes beyond distribution. Our teams are already investing deeply in the product, the processes, and the experience needed to help MSPs, partners, and IT security teams succeed with Proofpoint 365 Total Protection.
-
- Vircom already has 8 Certified Engineers for Proofpoint 365 Total Protection.
-
- The product has been integrated into Vircom Portal, giving partners and customers a familiar and efficient way to transact, manage, and support services.
-
- For MSPs, Vircom has integrated Proofpoint 365 Total Protection into its PSA syncs, enabling automated billing through ConnectWise, Autotask, HaloPSA, and Syncro.
-
- We believe Vircom is the first place where MSPs can buy Proofpoint 365 Total Protection and connect those purchases to automated PSA billing workflows across these major PSA platforms.
For MSPs and IT security teams, these investments matter.
Security platforms are only part of the equation. Operational efficiency, billing accuracy, automation, onboarding speed, visibility, and support all play a critical role in whether a solution can scale effectively across a customer base or an internal Microsoft 365 environment.
Vircom’s goal is to make Proofpoint 365 Total Protection easier to adopt, easier to manage, and easier to grow – whether it is being delivered by an MSP across many customers or operated by an internal IT security team protecting its own organization.
Bringing the Teams Together
To mark this next phase of the partnership, Vircom recently hosted a kickoff event that brought together dozens of Vircom teammates and several Proofpoint leaders and team members who traveled to join us in person.
Proofpoint was represented by leaders and team members across MSP platform sales, distribution and alliances, partner account management, customer onboarding, and regional marketing.
The event brought together Vircom team members from sales, marketing, technical support, customer success, and R&D.
The day began with executive discussions between the Vircom and Proofpoint leadership teams, focused on sharing feedback, aligning on priorities, and advocating for the best path forward for our customers and partners.
Throughout the day, the teams participated in sessions covering the new product, the MSP and IT security opportunity, partner enablement, customer experience, and technical execution.
The formal program concluded with an open panel discussion, where Proofpoint leaders answered questions and shared their perspective directly with the Vircom team.
The day ended with a happy hour, giving both teams a chance to connect, celebrate the partnership, and build the relationships that will support this next chapter.
Continuing the Mission
Vircom’s partnership with Proofpoint has always been rooted in a shared goal: helping MSPs, partners, and IT security teams deliver better protection, better service, and better outcomes to the people and organizations they support.
Proofpoint 365 Total Protection represents an important new step in that mission.
For Vircom, this next chapter is personal. It builds on nearly a decade of Proofpoint expertise, thousands of partner and customer conversations, and a deep commitment to helping MSPs and IT security teams protect the businesses and communities that depend on them.
We are excited to extend our longtime partnership with Proofpoint and help bring this next-generation Microsoft 365 security platform to more MSPs, partners, and IT security teams across North America.
With certified expertise, Vircom Portal integration, PSA automation for MSPs, and nearly a decade of Proofpoint experience behind us, Vircom is ready to help MSPs and IT security teams take full advantage of what comes next.
MSPs and IT security teams interested in learning more about Proofpoint 365 Total Protection, Vircom Portal integration, or available billing and onboarding options can contact the Vircom team to discuss availability, migration planning, and next steps.
