New service will eliminate Shadow IT risk from consumer cloud services, and make it easy for users to send large files safely and securely from Outlook
London, U.K: Mimecast has announced Large File Send for Outlook a new service that makes sending large files secure and easy for users but meets the governance and management needs of IT staff. The service will eliminate a common data security or ‘Shadow IT’ threat caused when users turn to consumer cloud file sharing services to send files because their corporate email service prohibits this. With Large File Send the user simply attaches a file to their email in Outlook as usual and presses send. The Mimecast service then intercepts the file, notifies the recipient of their secure download location and passcode. The user never needs to leave Outlook and the file doesn’t burden the email system or leave the network but remains secure and compliant with corporate policies. Mimecast Large File Send for Outlook will be available to customers in August.
