About Mimecast Awareness Training
Even with a robust email security perimeter in place, attackers can try to bypass it and operate inside your email network. When you analyze the anatomy of most successful cyberattacks, nearly all of them have one thing in common. Some user, somewhere, did something that could have been avoided. In fact, research shows that human error is involved in 90%+ of all security breaches. If your employees aren’t ready for a cyberattack, the unfortunate truth is that your organization isn’t either.

Pros: So basic a child could understand it.
Cons: If you have the slightest bit of common sense and are computer literate this course is not for you.
Not even a child would find the training videos to be humorous. They are painful to watch, I'd rather push toothpicks under my fingernails and then set them alight than watch this garbage.Overall: If I could use a poo emoji it would be too generous. Overall - please see the comments above - if you don't get the impression, you'll probably enjoy this course.

Great statistics.
Phishing training is highly customisable.Cons: A bit more flexibility with the training video queue would be handy.
Overall: We have been using the Mimecast Security Awareness Training for a while and we've noticed a big increase in our staff's security posture.

The videos are fun and are only about 2-3 minutes. There is a question plus some feedback and the whole process is less than 5 minutes.
We have it scheduled for 6 videos a year and if people don't complete each module then their access is restricted (which you have to do yourself). You can easily identify those people from the 'watchlist' - and they get targeted emails.
When new employees start, they are automatically sent the previously released videos so they get up to speed pretty quickly and you don't miss out on anybody.
Having Mimecast integrate with Active Directory for SSO is a winner as we found this helped people more easily conduct their training.
The dashboard is excellent and gives you some really good analytics. You can drill down on users - both good and bad, along with responses and get a grading on each person and the company as a whole.
The only gripe I have is that I'd like the module queues to be a little more customisable, but that is fairly minor. I'd also like some posters included so you can pin them up around the offices.
Once you set it up, depending on how you want to manage the system, it really is set and forget.
