7 advantages of a SaaS-based application security program
Companies across the globe are increasingly shifting to a software-as-a-service (SaaS) model, rather than on-premises offerings, when purchasing technology solutions.
In terms of application security, a SaaS-based program allows users to focus on running a successful application security program, rather than being the system administrator for a scanning solution.
In this infographic, discover 7 advantages of a SaaS-based application security program vs. on-premises.

28-pg eBook: What's your security maturity level?
In March 2020, AT&T Cybersecurity and Enterprise Strategy Group (ESG) completed a benchmark survey to better understand what a mature cybersecurity program looks like and how that maturity influences security and business outcomes.
Results from the 500 security professionals surveyed on their processes, policies, and controls were mapped into the NIST Cybersecurity Framework’s (CSF) five foundational cybersecurity functions: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, and Recover.
The goal of this unique research was to validate if — and to what degree — organizations, in better alignment with best practices prescribed by the NIST CSF, can operate highly secure environments and better enable their businesses. This was accomplished through creation of a data-driven model that segments respondents into three levels of cybersecurity maturity: emerging organizations, following organizations, and leading organizations. By comparing survey results across these levels, the model allows us to use data to quantify the differences in security and business outcomes that exist as maturity level improves.
The results showed that organizations fall into three categories:
- Emerging (40%)
- Following (40%)
- Leading (20%)
Read the seminal report of the research findings, which takes a deep dive on the results and highlights the findings.

5 building blocks for strengthening your IT security program
As organizations transform with new business models and new technologies, they must also change the way they provide protection for their systems and processes from cyber risk.
This includes rethinking how to better enable distributed and remote workers—a key component for innovation and growth—especially since organizations are witnessing how highly secure, tech-enabled remote workforces help maintain business continuity.
Security leaders must be ready to build security programs that take their operations to a whole new level of risk reduction—without hampering the flexibility offered by digital transformation in a post-pandemic business world.
This white paper can help you on this journey, by outlining high level cybersecurity program components and best practices, including:
- The 3 fundamentals of risk-based cybersecurity: business alignment, effective prioritization, and measurement
- How business context shapes cybersecurity strategy
- 5 building blocks that can help improve a risk-based program
