Mimecast Aware vs. DoControl

Aware is Mimecast's governance and compliance solution for collaboration platforms like Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Zoom. It gives IT, security, legal, and compliance teams full visibility into collaboration data in one place, plus custom detection rules that catch sensitive data sharing and policy violations as they happen. When something gets flagged, Aware surfaces the full context, surrounding messages, files, and edits, so teams understand intent fast, with AI-powered summaries to speed up investigations.

DoControl is a SaaS data security platform that helps organizations discover, understand, and protect sensitive data across business-critical applications like Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Slack, Salesforce, and Box. DoControl gives security teams continuous visibility into where sensitive data lives, who and what has access to it, and how it’s being used - helping address risks from excessive permissions, external sharing, insider threats, third-party access, Shadow AI, and risky OAuth applications.
