Acronym for Cloud Access Security Broker—visibility and control over cloud application usage.
CASB stands for Cloud Access Security Broker. See 'Cloud Access Security Broker' for the full definition. CASB functionality is increasingly integrated into broader security platforms like Microsoft's security stack and SASE solutions.
Why It Matters
The DSC Perspective:
CASB addresses the reality that your people use dozens of cloud services. It provides the visibility and control that traditional network security can't offer for cloud-based work.
