Challenges facing the manufacturing industry
Security must be top of mind in Manufacturing, an industry where any disruption to operations can quickly spike to millions in productivity losses as production grinds to a halt. Over 65% of malware attacks were delivered by phishing emails, showing a key attack vector to protect.
Manufacturing organizations have valuable intellectual property for products and operational processes that provide a competitive advantage. With the risk of industrial espionage, the industry must archive content appropriately and identify highly sensitive data leaks. Manufacturing relies on email as a vital communication channel with customers, suppliers and other partners.

A sound continuity strategy
Even the most secure, well-planned email systems go down. With Mimecast, immediate failover means email flow is not interrupted in the event of a mail server outage or planned maintenance. Mimecast keeps sending and receiving email, and gives employees access via Outlook, web, mobile and Mac when cloud, on-premises or hybrid email systems go down.

Email Archiving
Email archiving for business
Reduce the cost and complexity of data growth while meeting demands for retention, search and e-discovery. With Mimecast Sync and Recover, restoring email, personal folders, calendar and contacts has never been easier.

Even the best employees can be maddeningly careless and resistant to change. Their casual mistakes can lead to disaster — and the cost can be staggering to your organization. Improve security culture with engaging content and advanced risk scoring.
Web Security
Improve web security
While the majority of cyberattacks continue to be delivered through email, 91% of malware uses the web – and specifically DNS – to function once it lands. When combined, email and web represent the initiation point for 99% of successful breaches.
