Case Study: Coppell Independent School District achieves A+ email security and DMARC compliance with Mimecast

Coppell Independent School District Earns A+ in Email Security with Mimecast

Coppell Independent School District, a Texas public system serving more than 13,100 students and 1,500 staff, faced rising K–12 phishing and malware threats and new state security/compliance requirements. District leaders wanted a layered approach beyond native Office 365 defenses to protect sensitive student and staff data and stop domain spoofing and phishing campaigns.

They deployed Mimecast Email Security and DMARC Analyzer, fully operational within a month, to add targeted threat protection and domain visibility. The solution delivered complete visibility into phishing, spoofing and malware, increased Office 365 uptime, helped meet compliance requests, blocked unauthorized use of the district domain and reduced exposure to ransomware and targeted attacks—earning strong internal endorsement and interest from other districts.
