Mimecast, a leading email security and cyber-resilience company, has opened two new data centres in Canada.
The replicated data centers are located in separate facilities in Montreal and Toronto and operate on their own proprietary cloud infrastructure and Mime|OS software architecture.
The Mimecast Canadian data centers, which opened for business in October, will enable Canadian data residency and sovereignty for customers and will deliver this under the strict certifications of ISO27001/17, CSTAR and SOC 2.
“As a global company, it’s critical to be grounded in creating opportunity in the communities and the countries in which we operate,” said Dino DiMarino, Chief Revenue Officer at Mimecast.
“Mimecast is the best way to secure Microsoft 365 environments and today we already support more than 500 Canadian organizations, securing hundreds of thousands of users. Over the last year, Mimecast has seen tremendous momentum as the team has grown in Canada.
“Adding Canadian data centers to our global network are important investments for Mimecast so we can better serve the Canadian market and provide stronger cyber-resilience to customers.”
Mimecast services are available to support Microsoft Exchange, Microsoft 365, Google and on-premise email environments.
The company’s advanced email security, security awareness training, Business Continuity and archiving services are designed to protect data in accordance with Canadian data protection laws.
