The shift to the cloud is in full swing. More and more organizations are adopting Software-as-a-Service(SaaS), forcing IT organizations to develop new strategies to secure the onslaught of data created and stored in cloud applications. Failure to develop strategies to close security gaps can result in compliance violations and data breaches. In some cases, organizations incur fines, but in extreme cases, businesses are forced to reorganize, replace the CEO, or even shut down completely. Perhaps the most overlooked factor in these cases is the effect this has on customers, who place their personal and financial information in the hands of major companies.
