Providing Visibility, Compliance, Data Security, and Threat Protection.

CASBs were created with one thing in mind: protecting proprietary data stored in external, third-party media. CASBs deliver capabilities not generally available in traditional controls such as secure web gateways (SWGs) and enterprise firewalls. CASBs provide policy and governance concurrently across multiple cloud services and provide granular visibility into and control over user activities.

Provide Protection and Ensure Users Adhere to Company Policies and Compliance

Visibility

Cloud apps unknown to IT result in information assets that are uncontrolled and outside the governance, risk, and compliance processes of the enterprise.

Data Security

Data Loss Prevention (DLP) tools are designed to stop enterprise data leaks due to unauthorized sharing but the cloud makes sharing data with the wrong people easier than ever before.

Threat Protection

It can be difficult to guard against the malicious intent or negligence of authorized users. To detect suspicious insider behavior, organizations need a comprehensive view of their normal usage patterns. Along the same lines, former employees pose significant risk, as they may have been disabled from the organizational directory, but can still access cloud apps that contain business-critical information.

Compliance

As data moves to the cloud, organizations and companies of all sizes will want to ensure they are compliant with regional regulations that ensure data privacy and security. A CASB can help ensure compliance with regulations like SOX and HIPAA as well as help benchmark your security configurations against regulatory requirements like PCI DSS, NIST, CJIS, MAS and ISO27001.

BYOD, Shadow IT, and Increased Cloud Usage

Phenomena such as BYOD (bring your own device) policies, the growing popularity of SaaS and cloud apps, and the rise of Shadow IT make restricting cloud app access to a defined set of endpoints a difficult task. Managed and unmanaged devices often require different policies to protect corporate data effectively. CASBs help enforce granular access polices as well as identify and categorize cloud apps in your organization.
