A Mimecast Case Study
Fichte & Co, a leading law firm in the United Arab Emirates, faced a surge in sophisticated phishing attacks in early 2017. Their existing anti-spam solution was insufficient, allowing multiple threats through weekly and causing staff fatigue. To address this, the firm's CIO, Matthew James Peet, recommended and selected Mimecast's Secure Email Gateway with Targeted Threat Protection for its strong capabilities and support.
Mimecast quickly implemented the solution, which dramatically reduced threats. The vendor reports blocking 60% of inbound email at the gateway and reducing threats reaching users by 94%. Mimecast also ensured a near-zero false positive rate for compliance. The CIO highlighted the solution's balance of security and usability, noting it allowed the firm to confidently weather threats like WannaCry and significantly improved staff productivity and confidence in email.
