What is a SaaS Security Platform (SSP)?

Modern organizations run on SaaS applications, in which employees create and collaborate on critical company data. As per the SaaS Shared Responsibility Model, security teams are responsible for SaaS data security. Today, data protection against insider threats, unauthorized access, and malicious 3rd party apps is essential. SaaS Security Platforms (SSP) provide a suite of products, covering all SaaS Security threat models across multiple SaaS applications.

Why SSP?

The SaaS Security ecosystem is going through a technological transformation. Five years ago, security teams purchased Kubernetes Security solutions. Today, they purchase CNAPP offering so much more. Five years ago, security teams purchased CASB solutions that in today's complex environments don't cover all SaaS Security threat models. That is where SSP steps in.

The out-of-box solutions as well as customization allowed us to educate employees on safely sharing and quickly resolve DLP violations. Additionally, DoControl allows us to target the highest risk areas without having negative impacts on the productivity of our employees.

At Armis we have definitely reached the limits of native SaaS security features, specifically data access controls. As the company grows and in order to push the business at the same pace, DoControl helps us apply granular data access controls to make sure no company data is exposed to the wrong person at scale.

Curtis Simpson, CISO, Armis

There is so much activity, so many files, so many events, it’s an impossible task to keep up with all of this. The challenge is to gain visibility and enforcement across all our different SaaS applications to better manage the risk effectively. I need to be a business enabler, and not a roadblock for the organization to collaborate and continue to drive business.

William White, CSO, Big Panda
