Solve email GRC issues with SaaS-based data leak prevention solution

The regulatory environment means that monitoring information that leaves your organization is as vital as protecting it from external attacks. Email can be a frequent source of data leaks-some malicious, most inadvertent. A holistic data leak prevention (DLP) solution can prevent leaks through policy implementation while addressing email governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) issues as well. Such a solution not only stops private or proprietary information from leaving the business, but can address email GRC from a continuity perspective as well. A superior email GRC solution will offer a unified framework for managing policy, provisioning rules, and handling reporting, as well as include components for addressing hygiene, policy, continuity, retention, and discovery-all critical components of email GRC.

Mimecast provides a unified email management platform and a software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution for email GRC that is affordable, powerful, and easy to manage.
