What kind of applications can benefit from the visibility provided by Inline-CASB?

The visibility provided by Inline-CASB (Cloud Access Security Broker) is particularly beneficial for cloud applications used within the organization. Inline-CASB functions as a security layer that sits between users and cloud services, enabling organizations to monitor, control, and secure their cloud interactions.

One of the key advantages of Inline-CASB is its ability to provide insight into user behavior and data flow with these cloud applications. This includes monitoring data access patterns, identifying potential security threats, enforcing compliance with policies, and ensuring that sensitive information is used properly. By gaining visibility into cloud applications, organizations can better manage risks associated with data exposure and unauthorized access.

Internal applications and applications hosted on local servers do not typically interface with the cloud in the same way that cloud applications do. Therefore, the main focus of Inline-CASB technologies is on managing cloud services and ensuring appropriate protective measures are in place for the data being accessed and used by employees and other users within the organization.

This makes cloud applications used within the organization the most relevant and direct beneficiaries of the infrastructure and functionalities that Inline-CASB provides.
