Fortinet FortiSIEM

From detection to security insights

API 2.0 Compatible

By integrating Mimecast with FortiSIEM, organizations gain search and correlation capabilities across all log types to detect and respond to cyberattacks and defend against growing threats while modernizing and scaling security operations through integrated visibility, detection, investigation, and response.

Solution overview

1. Emails received by Mimecast are passed through a series of hygiene scanning techniques, to ensure that they are safe before delivery to the recipient.
2. Email intelligence provided by Mimecast is sent to FortiSIEM for normalization.
3. FortiSIEM uses the email intelligence to alert analysts and add context to data from other data sources.
4. With FortiSOAR, automate the management and response to phishing emails.
