Software as a Service (SaaS) security was analyzed in a recent survey by the Cloud Security Alliance. According to the survey, more than half (58%) of organizations estimate their current SaaS security solutions only cover 50% or less of their SaaS applications.
Sixty-six percent of organizations have increased their investment in SaaS apps, with 71% increasing their investment in security tools to protect these business-critical apps. CISOs and security managers are shifting from being controllers to governors as the ownership of SaaS apps is spread out through the different departments of their organization.
