Large File Send | Mimecast

Overview

Overcome message and attachment size limits to securely send large files via email

Organizations of all sizes constantly share data – both internally as well as with business partners. As technology has advanced, file sizes have increased, putting a greater load on environments. To meet the security and compliance risks of today, organizations need a secure, integrated, file-sharing solution specifically built to send large files. To meet the demands of employees, the file-sharing system must be easy to access and use.

Challenges

The challenge of large files

To keep the performance and availability of email systems, organizations typically enforce a maximum size on email attachments. However, employees may need to send and receive files which exceed those limits. Without an easy to use alternative, employees will resort to using unauthorized and uncontrolled consumer-grade big file sharing services.

This can lead to unintended consequences such as sensitive data remaining on insecure file sharing systems. Organizations need to enable employees to send and receive large files as a part of their email workflow, while enforcing compliance with security policies.
