Why Waldo Published This Report:
Every risk highlighted in this report — Shadow SaaS, Shadow Cloud, weak MFA/SSO adoption, OAuth over-permissioning, orphaned accounts, and compliance gaps — originate from one issue:
Organizations do not know everything that exists in their environment.
Visibility is the control that makes every other control possible. Once you can see your real SaaS and cloud footprint, you can govern it.
Until then… attackers will.
