Agerion Team grins at Mimecast Training

We are not just a Mimecast partner. Our own email communications also run through this tool. Even more impressive, our team watches videos from this security specialist every week.

Short films

Once a week, our team members watch short videos (at a time of their choosing) that playfully highlight security risks. Which passwords are useful? And where do you store them? How secure is our communication when working from home?

All highly relevant topics, presented visually and in an easy-to-understand way. Our colleague Arthihan Velauthapillai at Agerion IT is responsible for rolling out this Awareness training.

The importance of email security

The importance of good email security is also evident from recent Email Security reports, such as the Mimecast The State of Email Security Report 2023:

Email usage has increased at 8 out of 10 organizations.
97% of organizations say they have been the target of an email-based (spear) phishing attack.
59% of respondents say they are seeing increasingly sophisticated and multi-staged attacks.

Mimecast uses a clear dashboard. After my own training and setup, I can monitor our team's progress in the awareness training. It is great to see how certain security topics suddenly come to life and to gain a clear understanding of the challenges within our company.

Ransomware attacks

An estimated 33 billion electronic documents will be stolen in 2023, according to the latest research from Juniper Research. Ransomware attacks alone increased by 12% worldwide in 2022.

This is a sobering risk, and one we are eager to address internally. Would you and your team like to proactively address this? We would be happy to show you what Mimecast looks like.
