Actionable steps to improve your organization’s email security and cyber resilience.
Address the security gaps in Exchange Online Protection with Mimecast solutions that protect your organization from spam and malware threats.
Microsoft Exchange Online Protection is a cloud-based email filtering service designed to protect organizations from spam and malware, with features for identifying email that violates content control policies. Exchange Online Protection is the default spam/malware email filter for Office 365, one of Microsoft's fastest-growing businesses ever. As more organizations migrate to the cloud-based Office platform for the accessibility, scalability and ease-of-use it offers, many will need to augment the capabilities of Exchange Online Protection in order to adequately protect against email-borne threats.
While Exchange Online Protection provides robust defense against spam and malware, it may not sufficiently protect against certain kinds of threats, including highly targeted phishing and impersonation (BEC) attacks, malicious URLs and other advanced persistent threats. And because Exchange Online Protection provides only a single-layered approach to filtering out malicious emails and attachments, organizations aren't protected from any malicious email that slips through the Exchange Online Protection filters.
For organizations that want to take advantage of the many benefits of Office 365 without compromising security, Mimecast offers comprehensive solutions that provide the additional layers of defenses mandated by email security best practices.
Mimecast provides cloud-based solutions for email security, compliance, archiving and data protection. Mimecast's comprehensive technology is available as a SaaS-based offering, dramatically accelerating deployment and simplifying email management.
