SaaS Security Management – The “Forgotten” Critical Stack
SaaS applications such as Salesforce, Microsoft365, Workday, Service Now, Box and Slack support the vital activities of every line of business within the organization. Their ubiquity and convenience make these applications almost invisible to those who rely on them and they are used almost without thought. This transparency creates a paradox, however. By almost any objective criteria – sensitivity of data, importance to business operations, need for data integrity, etc. – these applications and the data they contain are part of the critical IT infrastructure stack. However, compared to both on prem installations, and IaaS, SaaS typically receives significantly less attention from security organizations.
Tim Bach, AppOmni VP of Engineering, will discuss best practice recommendations to proactively monitor your SaaS security posture. SaaS Security Management is key to reducing risk by eliminating data access misconfigurations and providing visibility into cloud to cloud third party app connections, which are prevalent in the SaaS world.
