Security News > 2022 > October > Not All Sandboxes Are for Children: How to Secure Your SaaS Sandbox

Many organizations use a Sandbox for their SaaS apps - to test changes without disrupting the production SaaS app or even to connect new apps.

The same security concepts are used when creating a SaaS Sandbox - it duplicates the main instance of SaaS including its data.

The solution for the problem of the non-secure Sandbox is rather simple - secure the Sandbox step-by-step as if it was a production system.

Implement the same security settings that are configured within the operational system to the Sandbox version; from requiring MFA to implementing SSO and IDP. Many SaaS apps have additional security features that are tailor-made for that specific SaaS app and should be mirrored in the Sandbox.

Security teams can also implement and utilize SSPM solutions, to automate their SaaS security processes and address the challenges detailed above, to monitor and prevent threats from infiltrating the SaaS sandbox.

Explore how to automate security for your Sandbox and SaaS app stack.
