The Challenge

Navigating SaaS Security Complexities in a Shared Responsibility Model

As DLA Piper migrated to SaaS platforms, securing sensitive client data became increasingly complex under the shared responsibility model. Without centralized visibility and scalable security management, the firm faced heightened risks and compliance challenges.

  • Limited visibility into SaaS policies, increasing the risk of misconfigurations.
  • Siloed security management, making it difficult to assess and remediate risks at scale.
  • Lack of centralized oversight, leading to gaps in compliance and identity management.
