Big news! HackNotice and Mimecast have teamed up to make your email systems more secure than ever. 

As the industry’s leading threat intel platform, HackNotice deploys real-time dark web scanning that immediately detects if any of your third parties have been involved in a cyberattack. With that level of visibility into supply chain breaches and leaks, organizations are conquering the uncertainty they often have about their vendors’ security, making everyone safer. 

Now, we’re fully integrated with Mimecast’s best-in-class email security services! We automatically push alerts of security events related to your supply chain into your Mimecast environment, and then Mimecast works their magic, using your guidance to enforce policies against affected vendor domains, thereby thwarting attacks and fraud before they reach employees’ inboxes.

With our combined powers, HackNotice and Mimecast keep your email security stance maximally proactive and robust, so your organization and operations are fully protected from outside threats.

How It Works

1. HackNotice continuously scans ransomware forums and public sources in real-time, monitoring your third-party domains for any hacker activity.
2. Compromised third-party data is processed by HackNotice and analyzed to determine organizational risk. 
3. Any relevant security events tied to your vendor network are sent to Mimecast, which generates a Mimecast group with customizable policies.
4. For recently affected domains, Mimecast automatically implements the policies you designed, such as displaying a banner with customized text on incoming emails.

Use Cases

• 1. Mitigating phishing threats from vendors: Protect against phishing attacks originating from compromised vendor domains.
• 2. Preventing fraudulent invoices from partners: Prevent receipt of fraudulent invoices which could lead to unauthorized payments.
• 3. Enhancing vendor risk-management: Take a proactive approach to potential security breaches by vetting all existing and potential vendors, thereby safeguarding customer data, preventing unauthorized access, and satisfying regulatory requirements. 

We hope you’re as excited as we are about this new partnership. Malicious emails stemming from compromised vendors are a serious threat surface that can lead to major breaches. With HackNotice and Mimecast on your side, your employees’ inboxes are now powerfully defended from any lurking dangers in your supply chain.
