In today’s fast-changing digital world, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) tools have become essential for businesses aiming for greater agility, scalability, and efficiency. As of 2023, the SaaS market continues to grow rapidly, with 99% of companies using at least one SaaS application. However, this widespread—and often unmanaged—usage, known as “SaaS sprawl,” brings with it serious challenges, especially around cybersecurity and regulatory compliance.
SaaS sprawl refers to the uncontrolled growth of SaaS tools within an organization, which expands the risk of cyber threats and data breaches. The variety of SaaS apps—each with its own security setups and compliance needs—adds complexity. Businesses are often left struggling to keep up with a maze of regulations like GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2, which are crucial for protecting sensitive data and ensuring privacy.
To address this, effective SaaS management has become vital. It’s not just about keeping software investments in check, but also about improving security and reducing risks. Strong SaaS management gives IT teams a full picture of all apps in use, helping them enforce security measures, track license usage, and ensure compliance with regulations.
