CloudSOC CASB integration with DLP helps you secure it all against accidental exposure, data loss and malicious breach via a powerful unified policy engine. - [Symantec Data Loss Prevention Cloud: How To Achieve Comprehensive Cloud Security](https://symantec-enterprise-blogs.security.com/blogs/product-insights/symantec-data-loss-prevention-cloud-how-achieve-comprehensive-cloud-security) ### Maintain regulatory compliance across SaaS and IaaS With CASB, your organization can identify and classify PHI, PCI, PII, and other sensitive data, enforcing cloud storage, sharing, and access policies to meet regulatory requirements. The solution automatically protects regulated data with integrated encryption and multi-factor user authentication. - [Why CASB is the Perfect Home for Cloud Security Posture Management](https://symantec-enterprise-blogs.security.com/blogs/product-insights/why-casb-perfect-home-cloud-security-posture-management) - [Symantec Integrations Boost Privacy and Compliance](https://symantec-enterprise-blogs.security.com/blogs/feature-stories/symantec-integrations-boost-privacy-and-compliance) ### Continuously monitor for risk and respond to security incidents Security incidents happen. Rich, contextual data from CloudSOC helps you understand what, when, who, and how it happened -- and then respond quickly. CloudSOC CASB gathers data from cloud applications and continuously monitors for risks, such as data loss, use of unsanctioned applications, malware, and more. With CASB’s UEBA and adaptive access controls it can correlate key information (violations, users, accounts, and assets) to assign risk scores to users and incidents via CloudSOC’s UEBA and machine learning capabilities 一 allowing adaptive policy actions, harness this information to prevent exfiltration of sensitive data and keep malicious users off cloud applications. - [More Essential Than Ever - The Role of CASB and SASE in Securing Cloud Usage](https://symantec-enterprise-blogs.security.com/blogs/product-insights/more-essential-ever-role-casb-and-sase-securing-cloud-usage) ### Monitor and secure your most used apps across the organization CloudSOC CASB monitors and controls the use of sanctioned SaaS apps such as Office 365, >Google Workspace, Box, Salesforce, Slack and more through extensive API integrations and in-line traffic analysis. Monitor user activity across these apps and gain full visibility and automatic detection of high risk users, compromised accounts, and malicious insiders. The individualized behavioral-based user ThreatScore allows fast identification of risky user accounts. Automate classification of PII, PCI, PHI and other regulated data flowing in and out of these apps, and enforce controls that align with corporate policies. - [Symantec CloudSOC for Google Workspace](https://www.broadcom.com/info/symantec/cloudsoc-for-google-workspace) ### Secure your IaaS public environment DLP Cloud monitors activity in the cloud via API-based Securlets and a CASB Gateway to deliver highly accurate monitoring and policy control within your IaaS environment. Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) is an essential element within DLP Cloud to discover and continuously monitor your IaaS cloud environment for resource misconfigurations that can expose data to the public internet, ensure compliance your IaaS environments and get in-depth visibility of security risks across your cloud apps. - [Why CASB is the Perfect Home for Cloud Security Posture Management](https://symantec-enterprise-blogs.security.com/blogs/product-insights/why-casb-perfect-home-cloud-security-posture-management) ### Securing cloud access from unmanaged devices CloudSOC Mirror Gateway makes it easy to add cloud access security broker (CASB) controls to unmanaged or BYOD devices, providing the same secure cloud app access as managed devices. - [CloudSOC Mirror Gateway for Unmanaged Endpoints](https://docs.broadcom.com/docs/cloudsoc-casb-mirror-gateway) ### Gain deep transaction visibility and control shadow IT Risky transactions can slip under the radar in the cloud.
