The use of SaaS apps has grown exponentially over the last few years, increasing by 18% in 2022 alone. According to BetterCloud’s ‘The State of SaasOps’ 2023 report, organisations are using 130 apps on average. With this huge amount of growth comes a whole lot of sensitive data being shared between employees and customers.
Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) focuses on the data layer of a business, giving security teams visibility over the data in their ecosystems, such as sensitive PII and PHI, as well as company secrets. It helps them to understand where data is sitting, who can see it, and how it’s being used, all through automated processes. Instead of security teams trawling through SaaS apps to manually detect sensitive data and revoke access, a DSPM tool arms security teams with the information they need to understand the data they’re holding and makes it easier to protect it by setting remediation and redaction rules.
In this ebook, we’ll tell you everything you need to know about DSPM solutions, and how they could help you improve data security in your organisation.
