Cloud access security broker (CASB)

Safeguard your cloud assets

Rapid cloud adoption means the need for robust security.

The workplace is more productive when users can access and share data while working in the office, at home, in a café, or on the go. Unfortunately, many organizations are hesitant to migrate to the cloud, as sensitive data is dispersed into an enormous number of cloud apps, impacting IT’s ability to maintain visibility and control.

IT often does not sanction these apps and the devices used to access them, exposing your organization to a slew of human-centric risks you may not even be aware of. This means they don’t own or control your data, and IT can no longer protect the way they once did.

How do you secure the cloud app and BYOD environment without hindering employees with cumbersome protocols and procedures? SHI’s cloud access security broker (CASB) solutions let you gain full visibility and control over your complete cloud environment, so your employees can safely work in cloud apps and services while ensuring your organization is meeting compliance standards.

Visibility

Cloud access security broker (CASB) solutions provide organizations with enhanced visibility into their cloud environments. These tools offer deep insights into how cloud services are being used, including detailed monitoring of user activity, device access, and data movement across platforms. This level of visibility empowers IT teams to identify usage patterns, detect anomalies, and maintain control over sensitive information in real time.

Compliance

Maintaining compliance with industry regulations and data protection laws is a critical concern for businesses operating in the cloud. CASBs help organizations meet these requirements by enforcing policies that align with frameworks such as GDPR, HIPAA, and ISO standards. By continuously monitoring cloud activity and applying automated controls, CASBs ensure that cloud usage remains within legal and regulatory boundaries.

Data security

CASBs deliver robust data security capabilities designed to safeguard sensitive information from unauthorized access and potential breaches. These solutions incorporate advanced features such as encryption, tokenization, and data loss prevention (DLP) to protect data at rest and in transit. By applying granular controls and real-time monitoring, CASBs help organizations maintain the confidentiality and integrity of their cloud-stored data.

Threat detection

Modern CASBs are equipped with intelligent threat detection mechanisms that leverage machine learning to identify and respond to cyber threats. These systems analyze behavioral patterns to detect anomalies, flag suspicious activities, and generate real-time alerts. By proactively identifying risks, CASBs enable organizations to respond swiftly to potential threats and minimize the impact of security incidents.
