New research just dropped—revealing uncomfortable truths about SaaS risks. 🚨 86% say SaaS security is a top priority 😬 63% are oversharing sensitive data 🤖 56% are concerned about overprivileged GenAI tools Security teams are investing more—but visibility gaps, shadow IT, and identity chaos are still leaving doors wide open.🚪 We partnered with Cloud Security Alliance to survey hundreds of security professionals. The result? A brutally honest look at what’s working (and what’s not) in SaaS security. 👉📈 Get the full story in the 2025-2026 State of SaaS Security Report: https://lnkd.in/ePQFPZdb #SSPM #CloudSecurityAlliance #SaaSSecurity #ShadowIT #GenAI #ITDR

🤠 SaaS data sharing is the new Wild West — and traditional tools aren’t built to handle it. Employees are connecting third-party apps and external users faster than security can keep up, potentially exposing sensitive data. Read our latest blog to learn more about: 🕸️ How SaaS Data Sharing is More Widespread Than You Think 🤖 The Dangers of Open Link Sharing and Non-Human Identities 🔭 How to Discover all your Sanctioned & Unsanctioned Apps Tired of chasing shadow access?

👀 CASB vs. SSPM: Understanding Modern SaaS Security Solutions 🛡️ As SaaS ecosystems grow more complex, traditional CASBs are showing their age. Limited visibility, misconfigurations, and blind spots in app-to-app connections are risks you can’t afford. Enter SSPM — purpose-built to tackle modern SaaS threats with continuous configuration monitoring, non-human identity management, and compliance enforcement. CASB helped us start the SaaS security journey. SSPM is what gets us there. 🤿 Dive into the full comparison: https://lnkd.in/e_EUMhVy #SaaSSecurity #SSPM #CASB #SaaSRisk #CyberSecurity

🔻 The Rising Threat of Consent Phishing 🎣 A growing number of attackers are bypassing MFA — not by stealing credentials, but by exploiting OAuth and third-party app permissions in what's known as Consent Phishing. This stealthy technique tricks users into granting access rather than giving up passwords, allowing attackers to quietly exfiltrate data from platforms like Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and others — without triggering traditional security alerts. ⚠️ 📘 In our latest blog, we dive into: • How consent phishing works • Why it’s gaining traction in the wild • Why MFA isn't enough • What security teams must do to close the gap 🔗 Read the full post: https://lnkd.in/e_33UqKE #SaaSSecurity #OAuth #ConsentPhishing #MFABypass #NHI

We’re excited to share that Valence Security was recognized in Gartner’s latest Emerging Tech research ⚡️🛡️ As security teams navigate fragmented SaaS ownership, GenAI, and rising identity threats, the need for modern, outcome-driven solutions has never been more urgent. This new Gartner research highlights how innovative vendors are redefining SaaS security—not just by surfacing risk and detecting threats, but by automating remediation across identity, misconfigurations, third-party app integrations, and data exposure. Valence stands out with our identity-centric approach to SSPM, combining shadow SaaS discovery, deep visibility and control for SaaS identities including SaaS-to-SaaS, threat detection, and remediation workflows made easy—helping security teams move from insights to action in seconds. We’re proud to be leading the charge as the SaaS security category evolves beyond legacy posture-only focused tooling. SaaS is only getting more complex. We’re making sure it doesn’t get more risky 👉 https://lnkd.in/dRag8Siu #saassecurity #sspm #saasrisk #shadowai #itdr #riskremediation
