A cloud access security broker (CASB) is a security solution that helps protect cloud-hosted services and applications from cyberattacks and data breaches. A CASB acts as an intermediary between cloud users and cloud providers, and enforces the organization's security policies and compliance requirements. A CASB integrates with other cloud solutions via APIs and monitors the cloud activity and data across multiple platforms and devices. A CASB can also create incidents based on events from the cloud solution, such as unauthorized access, data leakage, malware infection, or policy violation. A CASB can then alert the administrators, block the malicious actions, or remediate the issues. A CASB provides visibility, control, and protection for the organization's cloud environment12.
