Four steps SMBs can take to close SaaS security gaps
2023-02-20 05:30

Gartner forecasts a 16.8% growth for SaaS in 2023 as companies - including SMBs - add new SaaS platforms to their IT stack.

Too often we find SMBs think security is all in the hands of the SaaS provider, when in fact the SaaS customer is always responsible for their data and their users.

Integrate all SaaS security telemetry with your security operations center monitoring tools and security information and event management platform.

Your security operations center and security information and event management platform should be receiving the telemetry streams from all your SaaS apps as well as firewalls, endpoints and on-premises resources.

Always remember the general rule that CSPs and SaaS providers are responsible for security of the cloud, while end customers are responsible for security in the cloud.

SMBs should leverage the cloud security capabilities and expertise of CSPs, SaaS companies and managed services providers to fully realize the transformative advantages of SaaS applications.
