Managing SaaS Security

To secure SaaS usage within organizations, Cloud App Security provides:

• Sanctioned IT Security: Directly integrate with cloud services using APIs for advanced threat protection and data loss prevention within SaaS environments.
• Shadow IT Visibility and Control: Leveraging the power of APIs, the discovery and risk assessment of unknown cloud applications is automated, allowing for usage visibility that occurs even outside the corporate perimeter.

Cloud App Security analyzes all traffic (log events, user activities, data files and objects, configuration state etc.) and enforces the necessary security policies through direct integrations with native APIs of the cloud service. Since the solution leverages native APIs, the solution does not use a proxy or sit in-line between the user and the cloud. This enables the solution to provide coverage for sanctioned apps regardless of the user's device or network. In addition, the API-based approach allows for easy deployment, granular control, and zero impact to the user experience.
