The availability of a growing number of SaaS applications creates a problem known as shadow IT. Lack of visibility into SaaS app usage prevents security teams like yours from having control over employees’ use and abuse of unsanctioned SaaS apps, introducing security risks to your organization, including data leakage, malware entry, and non-compliance.
SaaS Security Inline is a security service that offers advanced risk scoring, analytics, reporting, and Security policy rule authoring so that your organization has the SaaS visibility and security controls to prevent data security risks of unsanctioned SaaS app usage on your network.
SaaS Security Inline includes SaaS visibility and advanced analytics to help you understand cloud-based threats and provides SaaS policy rule recommendation authoring to protect against those threats by blocking traffic for unsanctioned SaaS apps and risky user activity.
SaaS Security Inline offers the following capabilities:
  • SaaS visibility
  • SaaS policy rule recommendation authoring with policy enforcement (policy synchronization)
