General information

This integration is collecting events from 2 end points.

  • audit events

    All events are fetched at once when activating the integration from first fetch timestamp until now.
    After that the fetch mechanism will call every 1 minute to update the audit events from Mimecast.

  • SIEM logs

    The logs will always be fetched from 7 days ago. Once the integration is activated, the logs will
    stream in batches of 350 logs per fetch.
    When all available logs are retrieved, the fetch mechanism will call every 1 minute to update the SIEM logs from Mimecast.
