Connect Rippling to Proofpoint Security Awareness to automate phishing simulation and security training enrollment so every employee is covered from day one.
The Rippling–Proofpoint Security Awareness integration automates user enrollment in Proofpoint's security awareness training and phishing simulation platform based on Rippling employment data. New hires are enrolled in the security awareness program on their first day, and departed employees are removed from simulation targeting and training rosters automatically.
Proofpoint Security Awareness (formerly Wombat) is used by mid-market and enterprise companies to reduce human-layer security risk through phishing simulations and role-based security training. Connecting it to Rippling ensures training and simulation coverage is always aligned with the current workforce — no missed new hires, no former employees receiving phishing tests.
Security teams using Proofpoint often sync training rosters manually or on a monthly schedule, meaning new hires may go several weeks without phishing simulation coverage after joining. Connecting Proofpoint to Rippling's onboarding trigger ensures enrollment happens on the hire date, not at the next manual sync.
thePeopleStack configures Rippling provisioning to add new employees to Proofpoint's training user directory on hire and remove departed employees from the platform at termination. We configure department or role-based training group assignment to match security training modules to job function.
Proofpoint Security Awareness is deployed globally. For thePeopleStack's Rippling clients with Canadian employees, security awareness training enrollment follows the same Rippling-driven lifecycle as US team members.
Proofpoint Security Awareness supports directory sync and provisioning integrations that connect to Rippling for automated user management. thePeopleStack confirms the specific integration method during scoping.
Yes. Rippling's department and role fields map to Proofpoint training groups, ensuring employees receive role-appropriate security training — such as elevated phishing simulations for finance and IT staff who are higher-risk targets.
Terminated employees are removed from Proofpoint's user directory via Rippling's offboarding trigger, preventing phishing simulations from being sent to former employees' email addresses.
Yes. SOC 2 requires evidence of security awareness training. Automated enrollment from Rippling creates an auditable record of training coverage across the entire employee lifecycle.
Standard configuration takes 1–2 hours including user directory sync and training group mapping.
