Key learnings from peers

Valuable Features

"The security checks are valuable because you need to understand what can be improved. There is a remediation tab inside the security check, So, you don't need to go and search how to fix those things. It gives you step-by-step information for all different apps, which is a really strong feature."

Room for Improvement

"One feature about which I have talked to them multiple times is related to being able to rescan or do a recheck on a specific security issue. Currently, when you fix something and you want to check if it is fixed, you need to power off the integration and then power it on. If there is a clickable button that can re-scan and do a single check or even the whole security check, without powering off and powering on, it will be easier and more efficient."

Pricing

"I'm not sure about the pricing, but it is worth it."

Adaptive Shield Features And Benefits

Adaptive Shield has many valuable key features and benefits. Some of the most useful ones include:

Flexible architecture: Adaptive Shield integrates with any SaaS app and can be live within minutes, delivering clear visibility into the whole SaaS ecosystem with a posture score per app.

Deep visibility: Adaptive Shield provides full visibility and control in a single pane of glass.

App integration: The solution can integrate with more than 50 apps and contextualizes all the items at risk to help your security teams prioritize configuration weaknesses and increase time and efficiency to remediation.

In-depth security checks: The Adaptive Shield solution has alerts and in-depth security checks by app, user, severity, or any other metric that can indicate misconfigurations in your SaaS environments. When misconfigurations happen, it automatically alerts you.

Remediation: With Adaptive Shield, you gain access to a step-by-step remediation description to see exactly how to fix SaaS misconfigurations. In addition, you can auto-remediate directly from the system or create a ticket through your ticketing system of choice.

Seamless user management and investigation: Adaptive Shield enables seamless user management and investigation across all SaaS apps - especially useful for securing sensitive users such as IT admins and executives.

Three different types of inventory - The solution offers:
1. User inventory, which gives you a comprehensive view of users across all connected SaaS apps. With the user inventory, you can see what SaaS the user is using or is deactivated on, privilege roles, and what security checks the user shows up in.
2. Device inventory so you can correlate the risk of SaaS users and their endpoints. The solution’s device inventory provides visibility into the devices that have access to the company’s SaaS apps and allows you to manage risks based on the device hygiene score.
3. Third-party app access: With Adaptive Shield, you gain visibility into third-party apps that are integrated with your SaaS stack.

Privileged activity monitoring: By implementing Adaptive Shield, you can monitor privileged users and their activities to track user behavior and detect when suspicious activity occurs.

Scoped users: Adaptive Shield offers limited access to the platform so the SaaS app owner, who exists outside of your security team, can have visibility into their owned apps and remediate issues right away, while your security team oversees.

Timeline view: The Adaptive Shield solution provides a timeline view of your SaaS environment so you can detect changes and see how your system’s posture has evolved over time.
