Case Study: Snowflake protects critical IP and gains full insider risk visibility with Mimecast Incydr

Snowflake stops insider data exfiltration risks with Mimecast Incydr in 1 deployment

Snowflake needed to protect its critical intellectual property without disrupting its collaborative culture. The company's security team, led by VP of Security Mario Duarte, found traditional data loss prevention (DLP) and cloud access security broker (CASB) tools to be cumbersome and ineffective, lacking visibility into what happened to data after it was downloaded. They sought a solution that could provide full visibility into data movement without creating productivity roadblocks.

The vendor Mimecast provided its Incydr solution, which offered the integrated visibility Snowflake required. By bringing telemetry into their Data Cloud and contextualizing it, Snowflake's team could identify risky patterns, such as an employee unintentionally uploading source code to personal cloud storage. With Mimecast Incydr, the security team shifted from reacting to anticipating potential insider risks, making the solution central to their security program.
