Known for creating high-quality protective packaging and insulation materials, Abriso Jiffy is a leading European manufacturer with 1500 employees across 11 countries. But while Abriso Jiffy insulates its clients’ products from damage, heat, cold and sound, its employees were exposed to social engineering and phishing schemes. It was imperative that Group Information Technology Manager Krzysztof Stopka safeguard his organization against downtime by shielding Abriso Jiffy employees from these attacks.
Customer Vision
“The biggest challenge for our organization is keeping downtime to a minimum, and our company relies on email for productivity, billing and customer interactions,” says Krzysztof. “To maximize our uptime, we need to ensure our Microsoft 365 email system is secure against the latest phishing and social engineering attacks. It’s also important to regularly train employees to spot phishing emails and identify malicious links, so they don’t become part of the problem.”
“With Mimecast’s help, we conduct phishing training once a quarter to assist employees in identifying email and social engineering attacks. But, even if an employee clicked on a bad link, we feel confident Mimecast will safeguard our company from attackers gaining access to employee logins and passwords. Mimecast is easy to work with, gives me peace of mind, and I would recommend them to anyone.”

Customer Strategy
“It’s so easy for malicious actors to attack, and we’re seeing more attacks all the time,” says Krzysztof. “Attachments and malicious links are the main attack vectors, and after acquiring a new company last year, we decided to migrate our existing email systems to M365. After moving to M365, we quickly realized that we needed more protection than it offered in its standard subscription. We were looking for a solution that could provide threat protection against advanced phishing and spear phishing attacks, while offering comprehensive awareness training to help employees recognize malicious links and phishing emails.”
After reading a few industry analyst reports and Reddit reviews and conducting his own due diligence, Krzysztof selected Mimecast’s suite of security products, which offered secure email gateway, targeted threat protection and email protect and awareness training.
Customer Outcome
With the Mimecast’s suite of security products deployed, Krzyztof and his team are able to quickly detect and block malicious URLs (including pre-click URL discovery), prevent phishing attacks and continuously educate employees about various email attack strategies.
