Does an Administrator have control over the ARMed SMTP Policies in Mimecast?

Administrators in Mimecast indeed have control over ARMed (Advanced Risk Management Email Defense) SMTP Policies. These policies are designed to enhance the security and management of email traffic based on various risk factors. By having this control, administrators can tailor the security measures according to their organization’s specific requirements, helping to protect against threats such as phishing or spam.

When administrators manage ARMed SMTP Policies, they can define rules and conditions that dictate how incoming and outgoing emails are handled. This might include setting up filtering thresholds, response actions, and other security settings that are critical for maintaining the integrity of email communication.

This capability allows administrators to respond to evolving security threats proactively and efficiently, ensuring that the email environment remains secure while complying with organizational policies and regulatory standards. When an administrator has full control, they can adapt these policies as necessary based on observed threats or changes in the organization's email use patterns.
