Which Mimecast Application / Service can populate Directory Groups in the Administration Console?

The Directory Connector is specifically designed to integrate with your organization's directory services, such as Active Directory or LDAP, to facilitate the synchronization of user information and group memberships. This functionality allows the Directory Connector to populate Directory Groups within the Mimecast Administration Console effectively.

By configuring the Directory Connector, administrators can streamline user management, ensuring that group memberships reflect the current organizational structure. This is particularly important for managing access to Mimecast services and ensuring that policies applied for security and compliance are accurately based on the most current user roles and group memberships.

Other options do not share this specific functionality. The X-Mimecast Server Connection focuses on messaging infrastructure but does not handle group population tasks. Mimecast for Outlook is a client application providing users with email security features but does not connect to directory services for managing group memberships either. Hence, the Directory Connector uniquely fulfills the requirement of populating Directory Groups in the Administration Console.
