Designed for software companies, cybersecurity vendors, telecom providers, and OEMs, the RealDefense Partner Program unlocks monetization through real-time, on-device insights – transforming everyday device signals into actionable engagement moments.
“This isn’t just a reseller model – it’s a telemetry-powered growth engine,” said Gary Guseinov, CEO of RealDefense. “We enable our partners to deliver security, speed, and value at the exact moment users need help, and that’s what drives conversion, retention, and trust.”
How It Works: Monetization Through SmartScan Telemetry
At the core of the program is RealDefense’s SmartScan technology, which analyzes performance, network behavior, file activity, and system health – entirely on-device, preserving user privacy.
With SmartScan, partners can:
● Detect threats and performance issues without sending data to the cloud
● Trigger contextual “moment of truth” prompts to engage users in real-time
● Increase ARPU via intelligent upsells and value-added services
● Strengthen trust with privacy-first, performance-boosting tools
One partner achieved a 44% click-through rate on SmartScan-triggered messages and a 2.4% conversion of free users to paid subscribers within a single quarter.
