This system provides a multi-faceted approach to safeguarding sensitive information residing within various Software as a Service (SaaS) applications. It offers visibility, data loss prevention, threat protection, and compliance capabilities, enabling organizations to maintain control over their cloud-based data. For example, it can prevent the unauthorized sharing of confidential documents stored in cloud-based file sharing services or block access to malicious applications attempting to exfiltrate data from a corporate account.
The ability to secure data within cloud applications is increasingly critical due to the widespread adoption of SaaS solutions. This solution mitigates the risks associated with data breaches, compliance violations, and shadow IT by providing comprehensive security controls. Historically, organizations struggled to extend their on-premises security policies to cloud environments. This technology addresses this challenge by delivering a consistent security posture across both on-premises and cloud-based resources.
