Cloud Security (including CASB capabilities) represents a security service focused on protecting access to cloud environments and SaaS applications. It provides organizations with visibility and control over the use of both sanctioned and unsanctioned cloud services.
The solution enables organizations to identify cloud applications in use, assess their risk levels, and enforce security policies to protect user accounts and sensitive data. It also helps eliminate risks associated with unauthorized use of cloud services (so-called shadow IT).
Cloud Security delivers a balance between user flexibility and IT control. Users can work with the tools they need, while the organization maintains visibility, security, and compliance with internal policies and regulations.
The solution continuously monitors the activities of users and administrators, analyzes their behavior, and identifies suspicious or risky activities, including insider threats. It also includes protection of access and sensitive data across cloud applications and services.
