slide 3: LTS SECURE CLOUD ACCESS
SECURITY BROKER
LTS Secure Cloud Access Security Broker has proven itself to be indispensible for cloud
security. These days nearly every organization has fully integrated the cloud in its day-to-
day operations. This has led to a large amount of data flowing to and from the cloud
which has made it prone to various security threats. It becomes difficult for the IT
department to keep a track of all the apps cloud providers and data employees are
accessing and hence there is a need to implement a unified security control like CASB.
The classic definition of CASB is “Cloud access security brokers CASBs are on-
premises or cloud-based security policy enforcement points placed between cloud
service consumers and cloud service providers to combine and interject enterprise security
policies as the cloud-based resources are accessed. CASBs consolidate multiple types of
security policy enforcement. Example security policies include authentication single sign-
on authorization credential mapping device profiling encryption tokenization logging
alerting malware detection/prevention and so on.” Simply put CASB acts as a gate-
keeper allowing the organizations to extend the reach of their security policies beyond
their own infrastructure. It ensures that network traffic between on-premises devices and
the cloud provider complies with the organization’s security policies.

SECURITY BROKER
• Visibility - CASB provides a clear visibility and across various cloud services which
covers users devices applications data and actions. It reports on what your cloud
spend is and provides an insight on Shadow IT. It even provides information about
the authorized/unauthorized apps that the users are accessing and how often they use
it.
• Compliance - Most SaaS vendors fail to offer data protection tool that ensure internal
and external compliance CASB helps fill the gaps. It identifies sensitive data in the
cloud and enforces DLP policies to meet data residency and compliance
requirements.
• Data Security - CASB helps implements data-centric security policies using controls
such as encrypt alert block tokenize and audit. It offers contextual access control as
well as data leakage prevention.
• Threat Protection - CASB prevents unwanted users and devices from accessing cloud
services. CASB also covers User Behavioral Analysis UBA and Entity Behavioral
Analysis EBA for determining anomalies in the network and threat intelligence
formation.
slide 5: • Prevent Data Exfilteration - CASB reports on sensitive data being shared publicly
inside and outside an organization. It finds all the cloud apps and reports on
enterprise readiness of each cloud app. It can encrypt data before upload or upon
download thus preventing any security threat.
• Data Loss Prevention - The risk of a data being transferred cannot be determined
without the ability to monitor identify and categorize data going into the cloud.
CASB integrates with a broader set of cloud services via API to scan data flowing
through the cloud.
• Reporting and Auditing - CASB governs your organization’s cloud usage with
granular visibility and control. It can provide detailed activity logs and other reports
useful for compliance auditing and forensic purposes.
• Early Threat Detection - CASB has visibility of all the cloud applications even the
one using SSL encrypted connections which helps it in early detection of threat. Its
analytics help to establish usage behavior baselines from which anomalous behaviors
indicative of potential threat can be detected and alerts can be generated.
With the increasing number of cloud applications and technologies being used
CASB has emerged as a critical security technology for cloud. By 2020 85 of the
employees will be using a CASB.
