The composition of cloud services includes, IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS.  Yet recent market adoption of cloud security measures has been focused on the large-scale IaaS and PaaS vendors.  Meanwhile, with the explosion of business-critical SaaS applications, we find massive amounts of data including client and sensitive data reside in these SaaS systems.  Yet the security teams remain unaware of the cyber risks that insecure SaaS and associated data represents. This risk blindness is largely due to the lack of cyber risk observability into critical SaaS apps. Many security risks in SaaS applications are not all that different than IaaS and PaaS services and center on misconfiguration,yet implementing security solutions to address them can require specific consideration based on the heterogeneity of SaaS apps.  

Come hear from industry experts KPMG Canada and AppOmni to understand the commonalities of SaaS cybersecurity with other key cloud security use cases. Also learn best practice on how to mitigate the leading cyber threats facing SaaS, including end-user misconfiguration risk and the risk of an over-privileged data compromise.
