Case Study: Scalar Decisions reduces risk and gains faster email delivery and unmatched threat visibility with Proofpoint

Scalar Reduces Risk and Transforms Incident Response

Scalar Decisions, a leading Canadian IT solutions provider, doubled in size and migrated its email systems, prompting a need for stronger email protection. Its SOC and IT services teams lacked comprehensive threat visibility and suffered email delays of 10–45 minutes and late log data; the incumbent gateway generated a flood of alerts and offered poor vendor support, forcing Scalar to seek a more effective, integrable solution.

Scalar deployed Proofpoint Email Protection, Targeted Attack Protection, and Information Protection (email encryption) in front of its mail flow. The cloud-based solution restored timely delivery and SLA compliance, gave the SOC deep, actionable visibility for faster incident response, reduced exposure to phishing and malware, delivered measurable risk reduction and ROI, and enabled new capabilities and planned SIEM integration.
