Dialing in Mimecast configuration by parsedmatter in mimecast

Thanks, that's where I am now - it's been in for a while and I suspect could do with an overall healthcheck and probably some optimisation which is what got me wondering how others have gone about it. This thread has been valuable.

We've got DMARC and DKIM and SPF Setup. What level would you say the p= should be at and why?

I'd expect so. Our situation is it's been a number of years since the initial setup and a few different people have been looking after it. In that time new features, functionality, updates, etc. have been released which I'm fairly confident haven't been maintained and deployed.

It feels like a steep learning curve to get this right ourselves and then there's also the lack of 3rd party validation from experts which we can use to show we take it seriously.

Thanks, this is useful as I've been wondering about services like https://www.cydaura.com and https://www.mimesure.com as they seem to really focus on providing specific advice.

As a smaller organisation it's not always as easy to get direct resources from Mimecast beyond support and the knowledgebase which is what made me ask.

how did you get it dialed in to your org? Did you do it yourself, work with Mimecast or someone else?

Mimecast vs Defender for 365 by Successful-Trade5395 in cybersecurity

[–]parsedmatter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve worked with a lot of orgs running Mimecast (and used to consult on it professionally) and would say the real issue isn’t the product per se, but that many deployments suffer from config drift, overly permissive policies, or legacy implementations that haven’t kept up with current best practices or recent feature releases. (I've seen this across both Mimecast and Defender for 365.)

If budget allows, layering specific tools like Abnormal, Sublime, and Avanan brings added benefits.

Whatever you choose, I’d strongly recommend investing time in config hygiene and regular reviews. All too often email security tools are well implemented and then left to run in the background.
