It is our mission to provide the enterprise’s security teams complete control of their organizations’ SaaS apps with visibility, detailed insights and remediation across all SaaS apps.”
The challenge of keeping up with every SaaS configuration is a known and top concern for CISOs today. The SaaS environment is dynamic and continually updating. As employees are added or removed and new apps onboarded, permissions and configurations must be reset, changed, and updated in addition to staying on top of the ever-evolving industry standards and best practices (NIST, MITRE, etc.). While SaaS providers build in security features, it is up to the company’s security team to fix the potential vulnerabilities and configuration weaknesses.
