Las Vegas, Nevada, July 30, 2024, CyberNewsWire, asterisk asterisk amid rising breaches including Snowflake, the platform helps security teams proactively detect and respond to identity-centric threats in business-critical SAAS applications. Adaptive Shield, a leader in SaaS security, today announced its Breakthrough Identity Threat Detection and Response ITDR platform for SAAS environments. Since entering this space a year ago, the company has already become a leader in the field, implementing the solution in hundreds of enterprise customer environments.

showcasing its capabilities with the most complex thread detection use cases and campaigns seen in the wild. The recent Snowflake breach served as a wake-up call for the SaaS industry. On May 27, a thread group announced the sale of 560 million stolen records from targeted attacks on single-factor authentication users in Snowflake. This event, which continues to make headlines, follows a series of significant breaches in SaaS applications over recent months. Greater than, the snowflake breach is a classic example of a SaaS security event that could greater than have been prevented or, if not, detected. Organizations must recognize the greater than shared SaaS security responsibility model, in which SaaS vendors provide greater than native security controls, but it is ultimately the organization's duty to greater-than-actively ensure these controls are implemented, said Moor Bin, co-founder and

greater-than-CEO of Adaptive Shield. Greater-than-major incidents like this could easily be prevented with proper monitoring greater-than-inhardening tools. Beyond prevention, which is fundamental to SaaS security, greater-than-having thread detection and response capabilities tailored for SaaS greater-than- greater than applications would have identified the indicators of compromise, IOCs, and greater than halted the attack at the perimeter. Adaptive Shield's ITDR platform works alongside the company's Prevention SaaS Security Posture Management, SSPM, platform and enables enterprises to proactively cover the breadth of attack vectors within the SaaS ecosystem. Identity-centric threats can originate from misconfigured settings,

human and non-human identities, and compromised SaaS user devices. These threats manifest in various forms, such as account takeovers, unintended publicly available links, malicious applications, and more. Real-life sophisticated campaigns detected by Adaptive Shield customers include threat actors taking over credentials in a payroll and hour management system and changing employee bank account details to transfer their salary to a different account. A partially deprovisioned former employee accessed and downloaded very sensitive data. This occurred due to misconfigurations within a highly complex operational platform. Detection of lateral movement from a disabled MFA demo account

into production via OAuth as a malicious app directly into employee mailboxes. Access to public links in the CRM intended for data sharing. While these public links were password protected, had expiration dates, and usage tracking, they were still accessible to unauthorized users. Account hijacking through user-compromised user devices. Greater than current ITDR solutions primarily address endpoint and on-premises active directory protection, but they do not cover the intricate SaaS environment. Greater than addressing SaaS-related threats demands deep expertise and can be achieved greater than only by cross-referencing and analyzing suspicious events in context from greater-than-multiple sources, ensuring precise detection of subtle identity-centric

greater-than-threats, said Gilad Walden, VP Product at Adaptive Shield. Adaptive Shield integrates with over 160 applications out-of-the-box, enabling customers to connect their entire stack and achieve an accurate alerting of indicators of compromise, IOCs, drastically eliminating false positive alerts.
