SaaS (Software as a Service) companies cannot function without certain consumer data. For starters, you’ll need the customers’ names and email addresses for your marketing and sales operations.

Read this online guide, for free, to learn about the problem of data exposure in Salesforce and how to ensure compliance with HIPAA, PCI, and other leading industry standards while storing sensitive data in Salesforce.

The rise of cloud, containers, and microservices has shifted the way software developers work for good. Whereas traditionally, software developers would release a new version of an application every few months, today’s platforms allow teams to work faster and more streamlined. These advancements have led to the rise of “software, safer, sooner” — also known as DevSecOps.

Cyberattacks are still big business and on the rise. Despite substantial increases in cybersecurity spending, many businesses aren’t taking enough action to mitigate their risks. While a significant data breach in itself is a scary concept, the costs of inaction and the subsequent charges associated with investigations, penalty fines and reputational damage should worry you even more.
