The Breach Seat - Chris Honda, Plotly

An employee shares a sensitive file in Google Drive - maybe it’s a financial report, a product roadmap, or your GTM playbook.

They choose “Anyone with the Link” sharing permissions to speed things up & send it to their team in Slack, which includes employees, contractors, and interns.  

Three weeks later, that same link is indexed on Google. Internal data is exposed, and that file ends up in the hands of a competitor. 

No one knew. No one got an alert. And no one knows what its about to cost.  

This is data exfiltration in the SaaS era - whether it’s from wide sharing permissions, insider threats, careless behavior, or shadow IT gaining access. It’s silent, it’s common, and it’s expensive.

Join our eye-opening 30 minute webinar where we’ll cover how to spot your biggest threats, + how to measure what those risks are really costing your organization.

Top SaaS Exposures: Understanding How to Quantify Your Risk

90% of organizations have had an identity related attack within the past year. 

Most attacks, breaches, and security incidents are identity-initiated since they use the identities of internal users. Thanks to the surge of identities across SaaS apps, identity-based attacks are increasingly becoming a major threat to organizations. 

Learn the essential elements of ITDR, how to identify potential threats, implement effective detection methods, and develop mitigation strategies to enhance your organization's security posture.

Google Workspace Security Series: Unmasking and Mitigating Identity Threats

Anytime an employee logs in to a website and clicks ‘Continue with Google’, they are opening the door to a thousand security risks.

Shadow apps—also known as third-party OAuth apps—connect to your business’s cloud environment, often without IT oversight. With a single authorization click, employees can unknowingly grant access to sensitive company data, creating major security vulnerabilities.

Learn how to uncover these risks, quantify the exposure, and remediate both historical and future threats.

Google Workspace Security Series: How to Control Risky Third Party Applications

An employee leaving the company trying to take company information to their next role? How about product teams thinking the roadmap they create is theirs to keep?

Employees often believe the assets they create at a company are theirs, but in reality, they’re proprietary company information that needs to be protected.

Learn how to uncover these risks, quantify the exposure, and remediate both historical and future threats.

Google Workspace Security Series - Personal Account Sharing!

Okta, the leading IAM provider, and DoControl, the leading SaaS Security solution, offer comprehensive identity and access management security in collaboration with the world’s most comprehensive and broadly adopted cloud provider, Amazon Web Services (AWS). With Okta, customers gain complete control over user access to SaaS applications and data. Okta excels at securely managing the onboarding and offboarding of employees within an organization. With just a click, access to all applications can be granted or revoked. Traditional Data Loss Prevention (DLP) and Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) solutions often struggle to keep up with the dynamic nature of SaaS data. DoControl’s solution excels in identifying and remediating such issues, ensuring that data exposure is effectively managed.

By integrating Okta with DoControl, organizations can gain comprehensive control over their onboarding and offboarding processes, thereby strengthening their Identity and Access Management (IAM) program.

Increasing Cloud Visibility to Mitigate and Respond to Attacks

Modern businesses increasingly rely on SaaS applications like Google Drive, Box, Dropbox, and Slack to facilitate daily exchanges of sensitive data and files. Although these tools allow for real-time collaboration that drives business enablement, their lack of granular access and security controls presents serious material risks for the businesses that use them. This webinar will outline ten of the most significant SaaS security risks associated with unmanageable data access within SaaS applications that your organization should be aware of.

The Top 10 SaaS Security Risks

A software supply chain attack targets the software development process, with the intent of introducing malicious code into “trusted” software packages. This attack typically involves compromising one or more of the components that make up the software supply chain. Upon successfully infiltrating the supply chain, attackers can then insert malicious code or backdoors into the software package. Compromising the supply chain allows for the ability to steal sensitive data, launch further attacks on the target organization or its customers, or take control of the affected systems and/or applications. Yikes!

In this webinar we will highlight software supply chain risks, as well as offer pragmatic recommendations and guidance to mitigate this type of increasingly common attack that targets Software as a Service (SaaS) applications.

Defending Against Supply Chain Attacks

Software as a Service (SaaS) applications bring the promise of business agility and enablement. But like any technology that provides significant benefit, there are often security implementations that become overlooked. As your business grows and scales, so does the risk imposed at the identity layer across the SaaS estate. In this session, we will highlight the identity problem in SaaS; from human identities (internal employees, external vendors, third party contractors, partners, etc.) to machine identities (application-to-application connectivity, 3rd party OAuth applications, etc.). Attend this session to better understand the risks imposed on every identity within the SaaS estate, and pragmatic approaches to improve your posture.

As SaaS environments become more complex and fragmented, the attack surface expands, and security becomes overwhelmingly burdensome. IT and Security teams are already strapped – having to do more with less – and the macroeconomic situation has impacted organizations across every industry vertical. An automated approach to SaaS security is required to navigate this current landscape, and transform the business at speed and scale.
Join us in this next installment in the DoControl webinar series as we explore key capabilities of a modern SaaS security program, and walk through the proof-of-value and ROI both in terms of financial return, as well as the valuable time and resources your teams are given back through automated remediation. We will highlight real-world customer ROI examples for both medium-sized organizations and large enterprises, as well as provide the necessary tools and resources to help build the business case for a SaaS security program.

The ROI of a SaaS Security Program

Sharing documents in Google drive is essential for business productivity—but how do you ensure personally identifiable information (PII) and sensitive data stays protected?

Based on our 2025 SaaS Data Report, over 25% of assets exposed contain sensitive information - this includes employee information, customer data, financial records, and much more.

Learn how to uncover these risks, quantify the exposure, and remediate both historical and future threats.
