LEXINGTON, Mass., May 01, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mimecast Limited (NASDAQ:MIME), a leading email and data security company, today announced that LogRhythm became an Application Programming Interface (API) Alliance Partner. Together, Mimecast and LogRhythm have developed an integration that combines Mimecast’s email security and LogRhythm’s enterprise Next-gen SIEM platform.



Joint customers can benefit from LogRhythm’s advanced correlation and security analytics by automatically consuming email security data directly from the Mimecast cloud service. Combining email security data with other security data and business context that LogRhythm collects improves overall threat detection related to email and other IT systems. Rapid, automated actions can be taken to neutralize identified threats, including disabling accounts, quarantining email, and updating security policies. The combination of Mimecast and LogRhythm offers comprehensive email security to defend against both commodity and targeted attacks.

“Mimecast’s integration with LogRhythm is designed to allow joint customers to benefit from industry leading enterprise security and threat management capabilities. Mimecast threat data can now be used to help secure customers' broader IT environment,” said Mark Basler, senior vice president of product management, Mimecast. “This integration is one that our customers have asked for, and the power of the Mime | OS platform allows Mimecast to rapidly expand our security ecosystem.”

“Most organizations lack centralized visibility across their disparate security solutions and don’t have the ability to automate advanced analytics across data from those and other systems. This makes it difficult to distinguish real threats from false positives,” said Matt Winter, vice president of marketing and business development, LogRhythm. “We see this alliance as a fantastic opportunity to bring two leading technology vendors together for the better. LogRhythm’s integration with Mimecast gives customers the insights they need in a single, centralized view to identify email-borne attacks and other suspicious activity and then enable rapid, efficient response through automation.”

This new API enablement partnership comes off the heels of the recently launched API Developer portal, a dedicated site for developers to easily access sample code, documentation and pre-built integration packs.
