Datadog

Developed by Datadog

Integrate with Datadog

By integrating Mimecast with Datadog, organizations gain search and correlation capabilities across all log types to detect and respond to cyberattacks and defend against growing threats while modernizing and scaling security operations through integrated visibility, detection, investigation, and response.

Solution overview

  1. Emails received by Mimecast are passed through a series of hygiene scanning techniques, to ensure that they are safe before delivery to the recipient.
  2. Email intelligence provided by Mimecast is sent to Datadog for normalization.
  3. Datadog uses the email intelligence to alert analysts and add context to data from other data sources.
