SaaS security posture management (SSPM): A Better Way to Secure SaaS Applications
Security Boulevard, Thursday, October 3rd, 2024
Organizations worldwide used an average of 130 software-as-a-service (SaaS) applications in 2022 alone, according to Statista. That number continues to grow steadily, all thanks to 2020's pandemic-induced acceleration of digital transformation.
Per one report by McKinsey, 'the adoption of digital technologies, including SaaS, leaped five years forward in just eight weeks during the early months of the pandemic.' Another report by BetterCloud estimates that 85% of business apps will be SaaS-based by 2025.
One reason SaaS has become the preferred choice for organizations is its efficiency compared to traditional on-premise solutions. 'SaaS platforms are easy to deploy and reduce the operational burden associated with hardware maintenance and software updates,' says Gal Nakash, cofounder and CPO at full lifecycle SaaS security solution company Reco.
