What is a key method used to secure sensitive data in Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications?
A key method to secure sensitive data in SaaS applications is to allow downloads to managed devices but block them from unmanaged devices. This helps to mitigate risks associated with accessing sensitive data from personal or unverified devices, ensuring that only secure, controlled environments have access to critical information.
(pg. 23) Reduce risk from unmanaged devices. Deploy a security product that differentiates access between managed and unmanaged devices to protect against the increased security risks inherent with personal devices. For instance, you could allow downloads to managed devices but block them for unmanaged devices while enabling access to core functionality.
