What's the Difference Between CSPM & SSPM?

2023-04-17 13:32

Assuming that either your CSPM or SSPM will secure your company resources that live off-premises is misplaced trust in a security tool that was only designed to secure either your cloud or your SaaS stack.

It's absolutely vital for decision makers to understand the difference between CSPM and SSPM, the value derived from each solution, and that both complement each other.

CSPMs monitor standard and customized cloud applications that are deployed by the customer in a public cloud environment for security and compliance posture.

Any company using multiple SaaS applications with multiple users needs an SSPM solution to protect its data.

At the same time, any company using cloud services like Azure, GCP, or AWS would be putting its operations at risk without a CSPM solution.

As the CSPM is a SaaS solution, SSPMs can ensure the CSPM configurations are set correctly, review connected third-party applications, and provide user governance.
