Mimecast Limited, a leading email and data security company, today launched the Cyber Alliance Program, designed to align security vendors into an extensive cyber resilience ecosystem. Interoperability and data sharing are key to any advanced security plan while building a more cyber resilient organization. Mimecast’s Cyber Alliance Program is focused on bringing complimentary cyber software vendors together for the greater good of the customer.
Driven by customer demand, the Cyber Alliance Program is based on the premise that sharing data about threats, malicious code and attack vectors among cyber vendors helps strengthen products and creates additional protection for the customer – helping each product become more effective and allowing for customers to be more cyber resilient. The program is open to select technology companies offering security and cyber resilience products that meet the program criteria and that are interested in integrating their technology into Mimecast’s platform using open APIs.
“Organizations are often strapped from a resource and budget perspective, yet, IT admins are still responsible for processing and responding to alerts, all while managing a variety of disparate security solutions. Automation through interaction with Mimecast APIs helps streamline and simplify these efforts as they bolster cyber resilience,” said Christina Van Houten, chief strategy officer at Mimecast. “The goal of creating the Cyber Alliance Program is to provide an ecosystem of like-minded vendors who want to help customers efficiently and effectively protect their infrastructures, helping organizations build a more cyber resilient world.”
