Extend SaaS Visibility to
Cortex Data Lake

Connect
Data Security
to your
Cortex Data Lake
to retrieve logs and compile a combined view of unsanctioned and sanctioned application usage.
SaaS Visibility
is the default visibility view on
Data Security
for tenants provisioned before June 2, 2021. This feature is no longer available for tenants provisioned after June 2, 2021, and will be unavailable for all tenants after June 2, 2023. The removal of this view from
Data Security
is part of a larger effort to consolidate CASB features within our products. For inline policy enforcement on your network, more granular control over SaaS application usage and user activity, greater analytics, and a large increase in the number of discovered SaaS applications, use SaaS Security Inline.
For an inventory of SaaS application usage and patterns on your network, and to identify shadow IT, you need to know about data residing within enterprise-enabled SaaS applications, and network traffic generated by users using managed and unmanaged devices within your organization.
If you are using next-generation firewalls or GlobalProtect Cloud Service as an Internet gateway to secure on-premise or remote users and are storing traffic logs and other logs to the
