Unveiling the Hidden SaaS Landscape: Safeguarding Your Enterprise with ThreatNG's External Attack Surface Management (EASM)
The modern enterprise thrives on various Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications, from Business Intelligence platforms like Looker and Amplitude to essential Collaboration suites like Atlassian and Slack. While these cloud-based tools have revolutionized productivity and efficiency, they also introduce an expansive and often overlooked attack surface.
The widespread adoption of SaaS across an organization, its third-party partners, and its entire supply chain creates a complex web of externally identifiable services that expose sensitive data and critical assets to cyber threats. This hidden SaaS landscape poses a significant challenge to security teams protecting their organization's digital infrastructure.
The SaaS Exposure Challenge
Unidentified or unmanaged SaaS applications are a prime target for cyberattacks. Attackers can exploit vulnerabilities in popular platforms like Salesforce, Box, or SharePoint to gain unauthorized access, steal confidential data, or disrupt business operations. Moreover, the interconnected nature of SaaS ecosystems means a breach in one application, such as Kustomer or ServiceNow, can quickly spread to others, potentially compromising an entire network.
The lack of visibility into the full scope of SaaS usage across an enterprise's extended network further complicates the issue. Organizations often need to help maintain an accurate inventory of all SaaS applications, making it difficult to assess and mitigate the associated risks.
