A prominent Zero Trust-based Secure Access Service Edge-based cloud security platform iboss has announced that it is adding a pioneering AI-based SaaS-based Security Posture Management feature to its Zero Trust-based SASE platform to help businesses detect and reduce unknown security threats in their SaaS landscape that are hard to detect using other means and techniques. As we increasingly adopt SaaS applications to run business operations and store business data in different applications like productivity applications, file-sharing applications, and customer relationship management applications outside their datacenter properties due to their increased popularity and usage and acceptance across different sections of their organization and industry, security teams are facing daunting complexity in their configurations and changes to address security concerns. Additionally through direct connections into the applications via their native APIs through the iboss Integration Marketplace, the information from the configuration items, permissions, and other relevant information on the applications in the SaaS applications is constantly received through the solutions provided by the SSPM tool without the need to install extra agents on the system, while the AI technology assists in the detection of the vulnerabilities in the configurations as well as the other identified risks found in the applications, which in essence tends to enhance the risks of breaches in the systems used in the applications. A consolidated measure of the applications in the system through the provided information in the “SSPM Insight Overview Dashboard” helps in the evaluation of the score in the system while specific information on the applications is provided through the availability of individual application-based information on the “SSPM Dashboard.”

“Organizations have made major investments in SaaS, but most still have very limited visibility into how those applications are actually configured and where silent risk is building up,” said Paul Martini, CEO of iboss. “With SSPM, iboss uses AI to translate complex SaaS settings into clear, prioritized actions, so security and IT teams can continuously reduce exposure, align with Zero Trust principles, and demonstrate real governance over the SaaS platforms that run their business with AI-powered clarity and speed.” By embedding SSPM into the iboss SASE platform, companies can transition from static reports to continuous risk measurement, reduce operational overhead, and better communicate SaaS-related exposure and governance to executives, auditors and regulators.
