2023-08-22 11:20

A new State of SaaS Security Posture Management Report from SaaS cybersecurity provider AppOmni indicates that Cybersecurity, IT, and business leaders alike recognize SaaS cybersecurity as an increasingly important part of the cyber threat landscape.

When asked to rate the SaaS cybersecurity maturity level of their organizations, 71% noted that their organizations' SaaS cybersecurity maturity has achieved either a mid-high level or the highest level.

Despite trumpeting their perceived SaaS cybersecurity resilience, 79% of respondents confirmed that their organization had identified SaaS cybersecurity incidents over the past 12 months.

A properly resourced SaaS cybersecurity program will reduce the risk of SaaS-related data breaches, scale SaaS cybersecurity as organizational usage grows, automate compliance and risk reporting, and realize cost savings and operational efficiencies across the SaaS estate.

SSPM coupled with a robust SaaS cybersecurity program is the best method for elevating the importance of dedicated and proactive SaaS security posture management to reduce the SaaS attack surface.

Only with an SSPM solution and SaaS cybersecurity program can you shift perceptions of confidence to actual SaaS cybersecurity confidence.
