Of all the SaaS SSPM solutions I evaluated, I found Obsidian CDR and App Omni the top two ones.


Obsidian CDR is a cloud-based security platform that provides comprehensive visibility and monitoring for SaaS applications. I like the expanded visibility of Obsidian, which performs network monitoring, detecting and identifying vulnerabilities and threats in the system. The reporting is done at the granular level, which enables security officers to understand the alerts and their severity.


We found several advantages of using Obsidian CDR. For instance, Obsidian offers response capabilities without impacting productivity.


Among other features I liked about the Obsidian CDR platform is that it leverages a powerful AI engine to detect any malicious activity in our network. It is agentless and can detect zero-day attacks. Its technology enables security teams to monitor for system vulnerabilities, malware, lateral movement, identity management risk, and compromised data.


Obsidian CDR’s flexibility means you can use it for identity and access management, enabling you to control access, privilege, and activity. Lastly, I liked that it provides you with deep knowledge of how SaaS applications are used.


The second solution we evaluated was AppOmni. The security management software platform scans APIs, security controls, and configurations to detect threats and malicious activity. It offers complete and quick visibility, is easy to set up and use. We liked that it is easy to protect the data across SaaS applications.


We liked the AppOmni capabilities of improving SaaS data security while streamlining the workloads. The platform can identify misconfiguration, manage access rules, and roll security updates. Its automated workflows enforce data access policies, rolling them across all SaaS applications. By doing this, AppOnmi relieves security teams from manual monitoring.


One advantage of AppOmni is that it strengthens compliance with role-based access control, custom policy scanning, and security monitoring. It enables you to know how users are accessing your apps with the user app inventory and also manages third-party app access. It features strong reporting capabilities with detailed intelligence, which allows the platform to detect unknown risks.


Another advantage is AppOmni’s seamless integration with popular apps, such as Salesforce, Slack, Zoom, Microsoft 365, Box, and GitHub. It also integrates with SIEM tools. We like the encryption of data at rest and in motion, with automation that enables us to easily maintain compliance.


AppOmni can detect misconfiguration, monitor privileged access to sensitive data, monitor event streams across multiple SaaS platforms, and validate your compliance posture. It provides a picture of the security posture with a broad security scope for third-party application management and data access management and continuous monitoring.


I think the two solutions are geared toward different requirements. Obsidian CDR is a more comprehensive solution for an enterprise-level, because of its advanced capabilities of response. AppOnmi offers security and compliance for organizations using a wide array of applications. Therefore, AppOnmmi is a good solution for small and medium organizations.
