The same problem could occur with a Word document synced through Dropbox or with any number of other legitimate SaaS applications that store data in the cloud.

How to improve your SaaS security What can you do to improve the sanctioning processes, compliance, and security of your SaaS applications? Aside from doing your due diligence in researching service providers, here are some suggestions.

You may also benefit from using a SaaS management tool, especially if you use a large number of software services or have a problem with shadow IT. Torii, a SaaS management platform, can help you discover and evaluate all of the cloud-based applications used within your organization.

As with all data, when it comes to SaaS applications, you need to ask where that information is going, how it will be stored, and what the service provider will do with it.
