However, without the right tools (such as cloud access security brokers (CASBs), they can put themselves at risk. Organizations’ IT departments understand how vital cybersecurity is, but must be equipped with modern tools in order to secure their data. CASBs protect against a wide range of security concerns that enterprises face when migrating to the cloud. Consequently, they have quickly increased in popularity and have become a one-stop-shop for countless enterprise security needs.
