A true-to-life SaaS security story: how a retired engineer’s cloud access lived on long after offboarding — and what it reveals about unseen identity risks in modern organizations.

Most organizations believe they use a few dozen SaaS apps. In reality, the number is often 10–20× higher. Here’s why that gap matters for security and compliance.

Not every app that “supports SSO” is secure. Here’s what security teams get wrong about single sign-on — and how SaaS sprawl turns convenience into risk.

A simple 10-minute checklist CISOs and security teams can use to classify SaaS risks before the next audit or incident response call.

Most privacy and security risks don’t come from bad actors — they come from what IT can’t see. Here’s why visibility gaps are breaking compliance and budgets in 2025.

Fraud Awareness Week focuses on evolving digital deception. Learn how unmanaged SaaS apps and AI tools become silent fraud vectors — and how Waldo Security helps you discover, quantify, and control SaaS risk before it costs you.

Growth of Shadow IT in 2025 Teams keep shipping; governance keeps guessing. Shadow IT isn’t a rebellion—it’s the default state of modern work. Waldo Security gives you the truth map first : we discover every SaaS app, tenant, account, and OAuth grant in minutes , flag SSO/MFA bypasses and risky consents, and export audit-ready evidence  your auditors will actually accept. Get reality now with Instant SaaS Discovery , then keep clean proof flowing via the SaaS Compliance Overv

If identity alone is the perimeter, today’s enterprises are defending a border they can’t even see . Password fallbacks, durable OAuth tokens, duplicate tenants, public links, and AI plug-ins create access that never touches your IdP. Waldo Security gives you the truth map : we discover every SaaS app, tenant, account, and OAuth grant in minutes , flag SSO/MFA bypasses and risky scopes, and export audit-ready evidence . Start with Instant SaaS Discovery , then keep proof curr

SaaS Discovery Short version:  your app catalog is lying to you. After 10,000+ discovery runs, the same patterns show up: entire tenants nobody owns, OAuth apps with durable tokens, and AI tools running under personal identities. Waldo Security gives you the truth map in minutes —we discover every SaaS app, tenant, account, and OAuth grant , flag SSO/MFA gaps and risky scopes, and export audit-ready evidence . Start with Instant SaaS Discovery  and keep proof tidy with the Sa

The OAuth Permission That Could Compromise Your Entire Org If your SaaS estate “supports SSO” but still leaks data, the culprit is often one word: offline_access . That single OAuth permission mints refresh tokens —long-lived keys that keep apps connected after  password resets and user departures. Waldo Security finds these in minutes : we discover every SaaS app, tenant, account, and OAuth grant , flag durable tokens and risky scopes, and export audit-ready evidence . Start

SSPM vs. DSPM: What Security Teams Actually Need If you start with data scanners or posture checks before you know what services even exist, you’ll miss the real risk.   Waldo Security  gives you the ground truth first—we discover every SaaS app, tenant, account, and OAuth grant in minutes , flag SSO/MFA gaps, risky scopes, and export audit-ready evidence . Begin with Instant SaaS Discovery ; keep auditors happy with the SaaS Compliance Overview . Executive takeaway (for the

You can’t govern what you don’t see. In most companies, each department quietly multiplies identities and services far beyond what IT or GRC expects . Waldo Security gives you the ground truth —we discover every SaaS app, tenant, account, and OAuth grant in minutes , flag SSO/MFA gaps and risky tokens, and export audit-ready evidence  your auditors actually accept. Start with Instant SaaS Discovery , then turn findings into clean proof with the SaaS Compliance Overview . Why

Your controls can pass an audit and still miss half your SaaS estate.  Frameworks tell you what  to govern; shadow IT decides where  governance must apply. Waldo Security gives you the map first —we discover every SaaS app, tenant, account, and OAuth grant in minutes , flag SSO/MFA gaps and risky consents, then export audit-ready evidence . Start with Instant SaaS Discovery  and package proof via the SaaS Compliance Overview . The quiet mismatch: GRC assumes scoping is solved

Short version:  Posture tools can’t secure what they can’t see. The riskiest gaps live in apps and identities you don’t even know exist —duplicate tenants, “Sign in with …” OAuth clients, public links, AI plug-ins, and guest accounts that never touch your IdP. Waldo Security finds them first : we discover every SaaS app, tenant, account, and OAuth grant in minutes , flag SSO/MFA bypasses and risky tokens, and export audit-ready evidence  your auditors will actually accept. St

If identity were the  perimeter, we wouldn’t keep getting burned by accounts, tokens, guests, and plug-ins nobody knows exist. IdPs protect the front door; modern SaaS has side doors everywhere. Waldo Security gives you the map of those doors —we discover every SaaS app, tenant, account, and OAuth grant in minutes , flag SSO/MFA bypasses, right-size risky scopes, and export audit-ready evidence . Start with Instant SaaS Discovery  and keep proof tidy via the SaaS Compliance O
