The Adaptive Shield SSPM platform provides proactive, continuous monitoring of an enterprise’s SaaS environment, mitigating threats such as misconfigurations, identity issues, and third-party application risks. This comprehensive approach is vital in an environment where managing security across different applications is complex, with each department often overseeing its own security measures, limiting centralized control. Adaptive Shield seamlessly integrates with over 150 applications and offers support for custom applications, making it a leader in the cloud security market.
In a study by Forrester Consulting, Adaptive Shield demonstrated impressive results, including a 201% return on investment within six months and a 70% improvement in security configuration error detection. This demonstrates the company’s ability to not only secure applications but also simplify compliance and improve collaboration between security and business teams. By continually evolving to address emerging threats, including the integration of GenAI risk management tools, Adaptive Shield remains a cutting-edge solution in the SaaS security space. With customers ranging from Fortune 100 companies to small businesses, Adaptive Shield’s strong customer base and strategic partnerships with companies like Blackstone underscore its reputation and influence in the cybersecurity market. The platform’s scalability, ease of deployment, and customer support further solidify its position as a vital tool in the fight to secure increasingly complex digital environments.
