    Overview

    Preventing an email data breach

    An email data breach is the worst nightmare for IT administrators everywhere. From major breaches that make the headlines and costs millions to minor breaches that hinder productivity and undermine client trust, an email data breach is something many IT professionals worry about constantly.

    And for good reason: email attack methods are constantly evolving, and most IT teams have a hard time keeping pace. It's not enough to have a solution for stopping viruses, spam and malware. Organizations now need defenses against phishing and spear-phishing attacks that use social engineering techniques to dupe users. And administrators must also worry about a ransomware or impersonation attack, such as a whaling cyber attack, that can be the cause of a major theft of money and data.

    Clearly, preventing an email data breach requires solutions that are not only as sophisticated as the attacks, but that can stay several steps ahead of them. That's what you get with Mimecast's all-in-one cloud security solution for email.
