Mimecast Aware vs. Paubox

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.

Paubox is a HIPAA compliant email security platform designed for healthcare organizations. It provides outbound email encryption and AI-powered inbound email protection, helping organizations safeguard protected health information (PHI) without changing how staff or patients use email. Email remains a critical communication tool in healthcare, but standard platforms like Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 are not HIPAA compliant on their own.
