Overview

Mimecast is pleased to announce an enhancement to the Mimecast Awareness Training Phishing Campaign functionality. Currently, Mimecast Awareness Training supports sending Phishing Campaigns to only one user group at a time, which limits how customers can deploy their phishing simulations. This update expands the capability to allow delivery of Phishing Campaigns to multiple user groups simultaneously.

What's changing

  • Campaign Creation Flyout:
    • Awareness Training Cloud Gateway (CG): Users can now select multiple groups from either Local or Active Directory groups.
    • Awareness Training Cloud Integrated (CI): Users can select multiple groups, but only from Active Directory groups.
  • Rapid Deployment Update:
    • Enables multiple group selections for both CG and CI campaign types.
  • Group Limit:
    • A maximum of 50 groups can be selected per campaign to maintain consistency with user settings.

Recommended actions

Customers should review their Phishing Campaign deployment processes to take advantage of the new multi-group selection feature. This enhancement allows for more tailored and efficient security training across different teams or departments.

No immediate action is required to continue using Mimecast Awareness Training, but updating campaign strategies to leverage this new functionality is recommended for improved security training effectiveness.
