Security pros use unauthorized SaaS apps despite the risk

Quick Summary:

This is despite the fact that they are acutely aware of the risks, with respondents naming data loss (65 percent), lack of visibility and control (62 percent) and data breaches (52 percent) as the top risks of using unauthorized tools.

A new survey finds 73 percent of security professionals admit to using SaaS applications that have not been provided by their company's IT team in the past year.

The study, from insider risk specialist Next DLP, surveyed more than 250 global security professionals at RSA Conference 2024 and Infosecurity Europe 2024.
