RVINE – CALIFORNIA, October 2, 2014 – Proficio, a leading provider of next-generation managed security services, today announced the launch of its new partner program. Proficio’s Synergy Partner Program enables partners to participate in the fast growing cloud-based managed security services market, and benefit from higher margins and recurring revenues. “Resellers of traditional security and networking products are experiencing reduced margins as product categories mature and vendors expand their distribution,” said Brad Taylor, CEO, Proficio, Inc. “We designed our partner program for resellers and consultants who see their customers migrating to cloud-based managed security models and want to participate in this opportunity without incurring the cost of building a SIEM-as-a-Service infrastructure and staffing 24×7 Security Operations Center (SOC).”
Comprehensive Program
Proficio’s Synergy Partner Program supports both resale and referral partnerships. In both cases, solution providers are authorized to provide the full range of Proficio’s ProSOC services including:
- SIEM-as-a-Service
- SOC-as-a-Service
- 24×7 security event monitoring, alerting, and remediation
- Management of Firewalls, NG Firewalls, Intrusion Protection Systems, and Web Application Firewalls – full lifecycle management of Cisco ASA, Palo Alto Networks, HP TippingPoint, Fortinet, Imperva, Juniper, and other security devices
- On-premise SIEM operations and administration
High Margin Recurring Revenue Model
Proficio’s service agreements typically span multiple years providing a recurring revenue business for our partners. Recurring revenue models are favored because they generate predictable growth and sustainable cash flows. Proficio partners benefit from a profitable channel model and the highest level of loyalty among our customers. Under the new Synergy Partner Program, Proficio will work closely with selective partners providing training, sales support, and marketing programs. Partners can register opportunities to ensure an equitable and predictable customer engagement model.
