In what scenarios would you utilize Mimecast’s URL Protection feature?

The use of Mimecast’s URL Protection feature is specifically designed for scenarios in which users interact with web links contained within emails. This feature scans and analyzes links in real-time to ensure they lead to safe and legitimate sites, protecting users from falling victim to phishing attacks or visiting malicious websites. By clicking on these web links, the URL Protection capability evaluates the safety of the targeted destination, thus providing an essential layer of security for users when engaging with potentially risky content in their emails.

Scenarios such as sending emails to external clients, scheduling meetings with stakeholders, or changing security settings do not involve the direct interaction with web links found within email content that URL Protection addresses. Instead, URL Protection’s primary focus is on safeguarding users during their online engagements initiated through email links.
