Risk detection and remediating action
By integrating Mimecast with Netskope, security teams can increase their overall level of protection through proactive actions that identify at-risk users and devices. Netskope Cloud Exchange contains a module called Cloud Risk Exchange. It ingests user and device risk scores, creating a dashboard view of contributors to your company’s overall risk score and triggers risk-reducing actions through business rules that are tuned to a weighted score. Netskope allows customers to move across different directories and groups within Mimecast and other integrated platforms, triggering different policy enforcements based on that user's risk score. Netskope and Mimecast can then share data of which users are at risk then Netskope will change a user's access to be less permissive or more scrutinized.
Solution Overview
1. As users interact with links contained within emails, phish tests and complete their awareness training modules a risk score is created.
2. Mimecast's risk score is ingested by Netskope's cloud risk exchange.
3. Additional risk indicators are also ingested from cloud services, endpoint and identity and access management solutions.
4. Netskope uses this information to derive a risk score and trigger risk reducing actions.
Mimecast + Netskope Use Cases:
Mimecast and Netskope provide continuous protection through:
