Defender for Cloud Apps
Your data flows through cloud apps — uncontrolled. DLP policies, session control, and OAuth cleanup protect what discovery alone cannot.
You Know Which Cloud Apps Are Used. But Who Controls What Flows Through Them?
Cloud Apps Discovery shows which apps are in use. But transparency alone doesn't protect data. Without DLP policies, employees can upload sensitive documents to any cloud app. Without session control, users download confidential files from personal devices. And 20-30% of all OAuth apps in your tenant have permissions that nobody has reviewed.
Defender for Cloud Apps is included in M365 E5 or available as standalone. For Microsoft stack customers, superior in price and technology compared to Netskope or Zscaler.
