Problem
Many organizations struggle to maintain visibility and control over the growing number of SaaS applications used by employees, leading to increased security risks and compliance challenges. Existing security tools like CASBs and SSPMs often fail to detect and manage "shadow SaaS" applications adopted without IT oversight. This lack of visibility exposes sensitive data and creates vulnerabilities that can be exploited by malicious actors.
Solution
Grip provides a SaaS security platform that leverages identity as the control point to discover and manage both sanctioned and unsanctioned SaaS applications. By monitoring user identities and access patterns, Grip automatically detects new SaaS subscriptions and assesses associated risks, even those overlooked by traditional security tools. The platform's SaaS identity risk management (SIRM) framework enables organizations to discover, evaluate, and mitigate SaaS-related risks throughout the entire application lifecycle. Grip integrates with existing security tools to automate risk mitigation and streamline offboarding processes, empowering employees to use the SaaS tools they need while maintaining a strong security posture.
Target Audience
Grip is designed for SaaS-native enterprises seeking to improve visibility and control over their SaaS landscape, reduce security risks, and ensure compliance with industry regulations.
