You've invested in Mimecast to protect your organization, but is your configuration working as hard as it could be?
That's the question behind our new Maximizing Mimecast series: a collection of Product Optimization Guides designed to help you close common configuration gaps and get the full value from your Mimecast deployment.
Each guide tackles a specific, frequently seen misconfiguration, explaining why it matters and how to fix it, step by step, for Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and On-Premises Exchange environments.
Here's what's available now (requires sign-in):
- Locking Down Your Local Mail Environment: If your mail environment accepts connections from anywhere on the internet, attackers can bypass Mimecast entirely. Lock it down.
- Removing Commonly Abused Domains from Permitted Senders / Profile Groups: Permitting broad domains like gmail.com or outlook.com opens the door to phishing. Tighten your allow lists.
- Removing Unnecessary Anti-Spoofing Bypasses: Anti-spoofing bypasses made sense once. Do they still? Audit and remove what you no longer need.
- Configuring Targeted Impersonation Protection Scans: Protect your VIPs. Make sure impersonation protection is tuned to catch the attacks that target your most sensitive users.
- Configuring Stricter Inbound DNS Scans: Strengthen your inbound DNS checks to catch more spoofed and suspicious mail before it reaches your users.
