Email Security with Email Encryption
- Category: Mimecast
- Created on 2011-10-24
As the range of email threats has grown – alongside your legal and regulatory obligations – systems for email security and encryption have become ever more complex. We think businesses have to spend far too much time and money trying to secure email systems; resources that would be better directed at core business operations.
Email security for every inbound or outbound threat
Our email security offering provides the most comprehensive, cloud-based email risk mitigation available in the market today. Backed by stringent availability and security SLAs, along with flexible email encryption options, it cuts cost and complexity, removing threats in the cloud to reduce your risks and improve overall email server performance. It is also built to ensure you can meet data security and privacy obligations governing everything from health information to payment card processing information in emails.
We protect against inbound and outbound email-borne threats. This includes malware, spam, phishing, DoS & DDoS attacks, deliberate or accidental data leaks, outages, and social engineering attacks.
Rapidly deployed and immediately effective
Up-and-running in just hours, you’re protected immediately – while our reputation management capabilities minimize false positives, meaning good email is always prioritized.
Benefits for your end users
- No more unwanted mail
- Interactive email quarantine digests from Outlook

Always responding to new risks
Our threat response team focuses on anticipating all email security threats and tackling them as they emerge. We were the first provider to offer cloud-based data leak prevention and our automatically learning reputation system is without peer.
Complements the whole email management system
Designed and built to work alongside our other services, Mimecast Content Power Tools can help create a more powerful email management system. Run it in conjunction with our email archiving service, for example, and if there’s a data leak you’ll be able to properly explore it and prepare for a disciplinary, civil or criminal action.

Simple email security policy administration
Tight integration with Active Directory simplifies the setting and enforcement of organization-wide email security policies. Like all Mimecast services, it dramatically simplifies email management, offering real-time control through a single web console.
SLAs you can depend on
Our security SLA provides 100% service availability, 100% virus protection and 98% spam protection (with 0.0001% false positives). Like all our SLAs, it’s backed by tough financial penalties.
Secure communications
Policy based email encryption and a web-based secure email delivery channel ensure message content remains private and secure.
Data leak prevention
Mimecast guards against honest mistakes, identifies malicious intent, and safeguards evidence if there’s a policy breach – securing everything from confidential documents to credit cards and social security numbers.
Improves mail server performance
By removing harmful and unwanted email before it reaches your network, your email server no longer has to process large volumes of unnecessary mail and your bandwidth is kept available to deliver your legitimate messages.
