Why Do Organisations Need CASB?

In cloud computing, files are stored off-site locations and accessed online. This arrangement means that firms utilising the cloud have less control over where data is stored and how users access it. Plus, users can reach information and applications from any device with an Internet connection and from any network, not just the company's internal network.

For example, a user could access a SaaS application from an unsecured network on their device. This scenario would typically be impossible with applications running on on-premise computers and servers unless a remote desktop is used. Therefore, cloud services complicate the task of ensuring privacy and safety, much like having a conversation in a public place increases the risk of eavesdropping compared to a private room.

That is why organisations often resort to cloud-based security services to adequately safeguard digital assets. These services may come from various vendors, with one platform for DLP, another for identity, and another for anti-malware. However, this fragmented approach to cloud security presents challenges: multiple contracts to negotiate, repeated protection policy configurations, and increased complexity for IT due to the need to manage multiple platforms.

CASBs offer a solution to these issues. It is a software tool or service that sits between an organisation's on-premises infrastructure and a cloud provider's infrastructure. Essentially, it acts as a gatekeeper, allowing firms to extend their policies to the cloud applications being used. By acquiring these safety measures from a single cloud security broker rather than multiple vendors, businesses benefit from the following:

Integrated technologies that function harmoniously
Streamlined management of cloud safety tools
IT teams only need to liaise with one vendor instead of several
Many CASBs also provide a unified dashboard, enabling customers to manage all services from one place

Four Pillars of Good CASBs Services

Here are the four foundational principles for effectively managing CASB:

CASB empowers IT departments to identify all utilised cloud services and evaluate associated risk factors. For enterprises wrestling with shadow IT, CASBs provide a comprehensive overview of all cloud-based applications accessed by employees. Risk assessments then furnish valuable data to shape IT's access policy, including more granular controls based on specific employee and device criteria.

CASB also extends an enterprise's security to all information in transit to, within, and stored in the cloud, mitigating the risk of expensive information leaks. Plus, it protects data from threat actors.

By collating and understanding typical usage patterns, CASB can detect abnormal behaviour and identify malicious activities. Adaptive access control, malware mitigation, and other capabilities aid in protecting the enterprise from third-party or internal threats. CASB threat protection defends against all contemporary risks, whether they are malicious or negligent.

CASB assists in ensuring compliance with data privacy and safety regulations and monitors compliance for enterprises that need to adhere to regulatory standards like HIPAA or PCI DSS.

Our CASB service offers visibility into all cloud applications, both approved and unapproved. Hence, enterprises can utilise our service to gain a comprehensive view of cloud activity and implement safety measures accordingly. Simply, we identify systems and services that internal employees utilise for business-related tasks without the necessary authorisation.

Through CASB, we provide granular management of cloud usage with robust analytics. As a result, enterprises are able to restrict or permit access based on employee status or location and regulate specific activities, services, or applications.

The DLP capabilities of our CASB assists teams in protecting sensitive information such as credit card numbers, health records, or social security numbers. Also, it can enable policies that prevent unauthorised sharing.

We also enable companies to evaluate the risk of unapproved applications and make access decisions accordingly.

Our CASB service detects unusual behaviour across cloud applications, identifying ransomware, compromised users, and rogue applications. It can analyse high-risk application use and automatically remediate threats, limiting an organisation's risk.
