Migrate to the Proofpoint On-Demand Cloud Collector

The Proofpoint On-Demand Cloud Collector enables you to ingest logs into the Exabeam Security Operations Platform. If you previously used the Proofpoint Cloud Connector and want to take advantage of the Cloud Collectors service, migration to the new Cloud Collector is recommended. Before you migrate, consider the following:

  • License Requirements: No additional license is required. The Cloud Collectors app is included with your existing license.

  • SaaS Cloud Connectors Support: Both the SaaS Cloud Connectors and the new Cloud Collectors environments can run in parallel.

The following table indicates the Proofpoint Cloud Connector's endpoints that map to the new Cloud Collector Proofpoint On-Demand.
