With Open Systems CASB, get visibility across your cloud application landscape. Continuously discover and monitor cloud application usage within your network and receive detailed risk assessments of current activity.

A visual diagram with three steps:
1. "Secure Web Gateway" protects users from incoming threats and blocks malicious sites.
2. "Cloud application discovery and risk assessment" identifies risky apps like Facebook and Dropbox.
3. "Block risky applications" prevents access to high-risk or non-compliant apps, leveraging an SD-WAN backbone for enhanced connectivity.

Why CASB Alone Isn't Enough

Once upon a time, firewalls, IDS, and AV were able to keep what was inside in and what was outside out. But those borders have been broken thanks to the cloud.

You now need more than just a CASB service – a service with complete web protection, managed and maintained by security specialists who can take over the load of security architecture integration.

How Open Systems CASB Works

Get expert support across all four phases of your cloud security journey.

Assess Your Cloud Security

Audit your entire cloud app landscape to understand which applications were accessed from within your network and the amount of data that changed hands. Evaluate your enterprise readiness of each of those cloud apps, so you can take steps to control your cloud app landscape based on a comprehensive assessment of your individual cloud risks.

Cloud Application Inventory

Get a custom cloud risk assessment based on your individual risk profile. Track your personalized cloud confidence index as our CASB monitoring continuously discovers and tracks cloud services in your network. Benefit from deep visibility of the customer portal into your cloud application consumption.

Enforce Cloud Application Policies

Make use of the cloud application information to enforce global policies on the access and use of sanctioned and unsanctioned apps. Ensure that no sensitive data is exposed by accident and control how and where data is shared. In addition, prevent compromising or libelous social media posts and secure your marketing survey insights.

Leverage Enforcement Measures

Examine and approve or block each cloud app connection, and – depending on the app API – specifically define who can do what, and when, with every file type.

A flowchart illustrating data flow for security reporting. Data moves from a cloud app security broker (CASB) and logs to a report. The report, enhanced by an SD-WAN backbone, details applications used (Skype for Business, BBC, PDF2GO, OneDrive), risk levels, and usage stats.

The image shows logos of Facebook, Dropbox, Twitter, and Skype for Business. At the center is a magnifying glass icon. Below, a graph plots risk versus usage with Dropbox higher in both categories, Twitter lower in both, and Skype for Business lowest in risk. It's an insightful view into Cloud Access Security Broker dynamics.

Flowchart illustrating content access and control. Arrows from PDF2Go, OneDrive, and BBC icons lead to a central globe with a lock symbol, labeled "Served locally." Outbound arrows via an SD-WAN backbone lead to CASB icons for block and inspect & control actions.

A user on a computer uploads a document, which is checked by a logging system before being transferred to a cloud access security broker (CASB) utilizing an SD-WAN backbone. The document is then sent to a web application, but PDF2GO is not allowed in the process.
