What is SaaS access governance?
SaaS access governance involves managing and overseeing the use of Software as a Service applications within an organization. It is crucial because many employees adopt tools independently, leading to SaaS sprawl and shadow IT. Without proper governance, companies face security risks, compliance issues, and unnecessary expenses. By implementing solutions like 1Password Extended Access Management, organizations can gain visibility into app usage, manage access securely, and optimize their SaaS investments.
How does 1Password help with SaaS management?
1Password provides several features to enhance SaaS management, including the ability to discover all applications in use, monitor user access and activity, and automate onboarding and offboarding processes. It helps organizations identify unused or duplicate licenses, reduce SaaS-related costs, and enforce access policies to mitigate risks associated with shadow IT and over-permissioned users.
What are the risks of unmanaged SaaS applications?
Organizations that fail to manage their SaaS applications may encounter significant risks, including security breaches, compliance failures, and increased operational costs. According to a Forrester survey, 77% of technology decision-makers report moderate to extensive levels of technology sprawl, which can lead to unsustainable expenses and slower IT delivery. Furthermore, companies that do not manage SaaS lifecycles are five times more likely to experience cyber incidents or data loss due to a lack of visibility into their SaaS usage.
