Dimension Data Introduces Its First Managed Secure Email Service In Africa

Dimension Data has partnered with Mimecast to provide a Managed Secure Email service to help organisations address the growing number of advanced threats targeting users, including spam, business email compromise attacks, malware and spear-phishing. Managed Secure Email will help ensure that organisations are secure by design, offering protection from malicious activity, human error and technology failure.

Mimecast’s State of Email Security 2020 report found that organisations saw a 53% increase in phishing attacks and a 45% increase in ransomware attacks in the last twelve months. As email-borne attacks grow, a layered approach to cyber resilience is required to protect any organisation from the growing cyber threats. This approach must address threats at the perimeter, inside an organisation, and beyond – helping to prevent brand exploitation and minimise downtime.

“By using Mimecast’s cyber resilience solutions and global threat intelligence, Managed Secure Email is seamlessly integrated with Dimension Data’s Security, Orchestration, Automation and Response (SOAR) platform to improve response automation,” says Mari-Louise Labuschagne, Product Development Executive: Intelligent Security, Dimension Data.

“This integration is engineered to enable faster incident response to incoming threats, better threat analysis, fully orchestrated remediation workflows and pro-active awareness training based on employee risk in an organisation. It will also help ensure rapid implementation of any new capabilities launched on Mimecast’s platforms.”

In an attempt to protect against today’s evolving cyber threats, security and IT teams often add multiple, disparate point solutions into their email environments. The management of these solutions typically requires in-house staff training and is almost always time-consuming and costly. By partnering with Mimecast, Dimension Data is able to help security and IT teams increase productivity by addressing email security as a managed service.

“Mimecast’s partnership with Dimension Data has always been strategic and together we have helped protect customers throughout the Middle East and Africa from advanced threats. With the introduction of Managed Secure Email, we will be able to protect even more organisations and minimise the disruption caused by cyberattacks,” says Paul Stafford, vice president Africa, Mimecast.

“Due to the pandemic, cybercrime and blended or multi-vector attacks are on the rise. Members of the security industry need to work together to protect organisations from an array of threats. Dimension Data’s managed service will help secure organisations of all sizes and from all sectors, with the right security measures, allowing them to leverage actionable threat intelligence so they can quickly respond to attacks and remediate threats.”
