Why Mimecast?

Were fast thinking. We go big to reach our cyberattack-disrupting goals. And we do what we need to protect the world of business from getting important (and potentially compromising) data stolen. We never leave anyone behind. We deliver quickly and outstandingly. Were big on honesty because it makes us better. Were empowered by our mission. And if cybercriminals have a good day, we work twice as hard to make the rest of their days a nightmare. Thats The Mimecast Way.

And the Mimecast way is also a hybrid-working way. We empower our people to balance their time between home and the office in a way that works best for them, their team, and our stakeholders.

Become a Mimecaster and put corporate data under your protection. Fill our teams with respect. And bring cybercrime-obstructing energy to your work. Be passionate. Be powerful. Be alive with purpose.
