With enterprises having 1,000 or more employees relying on dozens to hundreds of apps, the need for deep visibility and remediation for SaaS security settings is only getting more critical.

Effective SSPM solutions provide full visibility into the company’s SaaS security posture, checking for compliance with industry standards and company policy. Some solutions even offer the ability to remediate right from within the solution. As a result, an SSPM tool can significantly improve security-team efficiency and protect company data by automating the remediation of misconfigurations throughout the increasingly complex SaaS estate.

As one might expect, not all SSPM solutions are created equal. When comparing SSPM options, there are some key features to look out for. Check out the Ultimate SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM) Checklist for the critical capabilities to avoid SaaS misconfigurations.
