The Mimecast President's Winter Experience!

Last season, through closing deal registrations and expansions, we had a fast and furious race where the winner of the Mimecast Megadrive won themselves a trip to the Melbourne F1GP! The race was heated and included fun prizes along the way, from Playstation 5, Lego F1 kits to Go-Karting for all those on the leaderboard! The campaign received rave reviews, and for this season, Mimecast and Chillisoft are taking it higher.

This is – the Mimecast President’s Winter Experience ! The big points can be won by closing deal registrations and upgrades, with points also awarded for participating in other Mimecast initiatives. While there is only one grand prize winner, nobody should ever climb a mountain alone – we’ll be taking the top 10 entrants to Queenstown where they will all enjoy dining, jet boating and wine tasting at one of the countries best vineyards. The winner will earn themselves the President’s Winter Experience where they will be taken on a private helicopter tour over Queenstown with a an epic alpine landing, giving you the ultimate view.

To get into the contest, all you need to do is make one deal registration! Track your progress on the official leader-board!

Manage risk, not technology

Email and collaboration are where work happens. They’re also where risk happens. The reality of malicious actors, human error, and technological fallibility has created massive complexity, as security teams deploy more and more disconnected solutions — 75 on average — in an effort to stay secure.

The question becomes: how can you control risk without adding complexity?

Microsoft 365 Isn’t Enough.
Don’t Let Your Guard Down.

Microsoft 365 is a prime target for email-based cyberattacks. More than ever, organizations are vulnerable to sophisticated phishing, ransomware, BEC, and malware attacks. Close email security gaps to start protecting your organization today.

The following statistics are based on Mimecast’s reinspection of emails that have passed M365 security controls:

Data collected by Mimecast Cloud Integrated From Jan 1, 2023 to April 30, 2023 in the US and UK. Data based on an average office worker receiving 120 email per day and working 250 days per year, The Guardian.
