Deployment case study

The hidden cost of an add-on-only model

In one hosting environment where malware protection relied on a legacy signature-based scanner sold as a paid add-on, Monarx found:

30%

30% of hosted users affected by active infections at full deployment.

1,000

Around 1,000 accounts suspended each month.

5–10%

5–10% of accounts suspended after a malware incident went on to cancel.

$18,000

Approximately $18,000 in annual recurring revenue placed at risk each month through that attrition.

Beyond security revenue

Security revenue is only part of the picture. Infections can also create support costs, remediation work, suspensions and lost customers.

These findings come from one deployment, not a market average. Results vary by account mix, security posture and operating model.
