The SaaS security threat landscape is vast and continues to grow as organizations rely on more and more SaaS apps. While these apps have built-in security features, the ultimate responsibility to continually remediate potential misconfigurations lies with security teams, who often have no visibility into what’s going on in their enterprise SaaS stack. The answer is SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM), which was named one of the “4 Must-Have Technologies That Made the Gartner Hype Cycle for Cloud Security, 2021.”
Adaptive Shield, a leading SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM) company, today announced a technical integration with Okta, Inc. (NASDAQ: OKTA), a leading independent identity provider. Together, the companies will provide organizations with an integrated solution to manage SaaS security configurations, improve identity and access management (IAM), and strengthen privileged access governance.
