Cloud Access Security Brokers sit between users and cloud applications — providing visibility into cloud usage, enforcing security policies, and preventing data leakage. Assessment evaluates: does the CASB discover all cloud applications in use (including shadow IT)? Are data loss prevention policies enforced across all cloud channels? Can the CASB be bypassed through direct connections or alternative access methods? And does it maintain effectiveness for sanctioned applications like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace?
