Coordinated, Automated and Efficient Threat Detection and Incident Response

Mimecast and Blumira provide an integrated solution to improve detection, stop threats, augment security insights and centralize response across security functions. Email attack investigations usually require pivoting from one suspicious indicator to another to gather critical evidence, grabbing and archiving evidence and finalizing a resolution running these commands traps analysts in a screen-switching cycle.

Blumira’s cloud SIEM platform ingests rich Mimecast information to deliver an automated threat detection and response solution. The Mimecast Actions (logs, email activity, attachments) are available for analyst investigation – from a single interface. With the Mimecast integration with Blumira via Cloud Connectors, Blumira makes it easy to detect threats earlier and coordinate responses across all of the security functions.
