Mimecast Announces Human Risk Command Center to Provide Unprecedented Visibility and Risk Mitigation for Organizations

Mimecast, a global cybersecurity leader transforming the way businesses manage and secure human risk, today unveiled the first-of-its-kind Human Risk Command Center. This innovative addition to Mimecast’s Human Risk Management (HRM) platform equips organizations with unparalleled visibility into human risk, enabling them to identify and mitigate threats more effectively and efficiently. 

The Human Risk Command Center is engineered to include:

• Advanced Risk Scoring: Assigns risk scores to users, empowering security teams to prioritize efforts on the most vulnerable points within their human network.
• Integrated Security Intelligence: Leverages both Mimecast data and a wealth of third-party security solutions, including key partnerships to provide deeper visibility and actionability into human risk factors.
• Proactive Interventions: Powered by Mimecast Engage® technology, the revolutionary adaptive security awareness solution, customers can use tailored security interventions, including real-time Slack notifications and personalized behavioral nudges to correct risky behaviors and reinforce secure practices.
• Precision Detection: Actionable insights obtained from the command center will enable CISOs and security analysts to make informed decisions and quickly deploy the right tactics to protect the organization. 
• Streamlined Data Management and Compliance: The command center will also continue to advance and improve after the initial launch. One future advancement will be helping organizations identify and address non-compliance and data loss in collaboration tools through Mimecast Aware. By securing collaboration data at scale, companies can ensure compliance while accelerating incident response times. 

Marc van Zadelhoff, CEO of Mimecast stated:

"Human risk is a pervasive challenge that all organizations must tackle head-on. Our Human Risk Command Center is a major step forward, providing the tools necessary to measure human risk, empower employees as defenders, and protect customers from sophisticated targeted attacks. This innovation helps simplify the complexity of managing human risk."
