Axonius SaaS Management provides security, IT, finance, and risk teams the ability to better control the complexity, cost, and risk of software as a service (SaaS) with a single source of truth into the SaaS application landscape. With enterprises using hundreds or thousands of SaaS applications every day, it becomes increasingly difficult to gain visibility into both known and unknown SaaS applications. Axonius SaaS Management solves that challenge by using adapters (API connections to data sources) and proprietary SaaS discovery tools to create a detailed inventory of all SaaS applications, permissions, and data flows within a given organization.
“We’ve witnessed an exponential increase in the complexity that IT and security teams are tasked with managing, especially when it comes to SaaS,” said Dean Sysman, co-founder and CEO, Axonius. “We launched Axonius SaaS Management because we recognized that the market lacked a solution for controlling the increase in SaaS adoption. We hope to continue to extend the approach’s business value to our customers by leveraging Jerich’s expertise and identifying new and innovative ways to enhance SaaS security.”
Beason will be joining Axonius during its SaaS Management and Security Forum on April 22, 2022, in which he’ll be participating in two sessions that explore how to better manage the explosion of SaaS applications. You can also hear him discuss SaaS security during a webinar with AxoniusX CEO Amir Ofek and Hacker Valley Studio podcast co-hosts Chris Cochran and Ron Eddings on Thursday, March 31, 2022, at 2:00 p.m. ET.
