How SSPM Simplifies Your SOC2 SaaS Security Posture Audit
2022-02-03 02:19

As part of a SOC2 audit, it is necessary to conduct security checks across the company's SaaS stack that will look for misconfigured settings such as detection and monitoring to ensure continued effectiveness of information security controls and prevent unauthorized/ inappropriate access to physical and digital assets and locations.

If you're beginning or on a SOC2 audit journey, then an SSPM solution can streamline the process and shorten the time it takes to pass a SOC2 audit successfully, fully covering your SaaS Security posture.

These SaaS owners may not be trained in security or able to continuously monitor the app's security settings so the security team loses visibility.

At the same time, the security team may not know the inner workings of the SaaS like the owner so they may not understand more complex cases which could lead to a security breach.

It is unrealistic to expect from the security team to define a "Configuration standard" that complies with SOC2 without comparing against a built-in knowledge base of all relevant SaaS misconfigurations and to continuously comply with SOC2 without using an SSPM solution.

Get a 15-minute demo to see how an SSPM solution automates your SaaS security posture for SOC2 and other standards.
