Case Study: Okta achieves cloud file-sharing data leak prevention with Mimecast Incydr

Okta purchases Mimecast IncydrTM over CASB to avoid data leak from cloud file sharing

Okta, a fast-growing identity and security company with 3,000+ employees across 14 offices worldwide, needed to protect sensitive business data in a cloud-first, mixed-OS environment while migrating from Microsoft 365 to Google Workspace. Facing multiple exfiltration vectors and a 129-point set of technology requirements, the security team sought a solution that would give full visibility into file activity and seamless integration without disrupting employee productivity.

Okta selected Mimecast Incydr’s Insider Risk Management approach for its fast, API-to-API deployment and unified visibility across endpoints, Google Drive/Gmail, Box, and Office 365. Incydr enabled detection of exfiltration across channels, supported Mac and M1 devices, integrated with Okta for targeted monitoring, and helped secure the Microsoft-to-Google migration—improving Okta’s risk posture, surfacing exposed data for remediation, and giving leadership clear, actionable insight with minimal user impact.
