“I haven’t been able to find anything close to what Nudge Security does, especially for employee
offboarding. It removes all of the guesswork in knowing what SaaS accounts employees have access to
and automates the hard and tedious parts of the process.”
“Whether they're ready to admit it or not, every security leader is contending with a sprawling
mix of cloud and SaaS providers, permissions, accounts, and identities. Until now, this emerging
attack surface has been largely invisible and vulnerable to the types of supply chain attacks in the
headlines week after week. Nudge Security recognized that securing the SaaS supply chain is one of
the core challenges of modern cybersecurity, and that’s why the Ballistic Ventures team was so eager
to invest.”
“For years, the industry has treated cybersecurity as a technology problem when, in fact, it is
humans that play the biggest role in keeping enterprises cyber secure. Finally, Nudge Security has
emerged to tackle the hardest soft problem in the industry—human behavior.”
"Attack surfaces are growing more complex as organizations adopt new cloud and SaaS
technologies across a globally distributed workforce. Nudge Security helps provide organizations
with increased visibility into today's modern attack surface, and enlists all employees to help
protect it."
"I am of the opinion that SaaS sprawl is a good thing, you have to give your team the
flexibility to explore and discover new tools that will help them become more effective at their
job. Ideally all those apps should be authenticating in a centralized way using an identity provider
like Okta, however, in the real world, it is imperative to have mechanisms in place to account, find
and manage the sprawling of those apps and nudge users to help secure the flow of information."
“Modern CIOs face a difficult balancing act enabling a highly distributed workforce with access to
data and technology while trying to control the costs and risks associated with unchecked SaaS
sprawl. Nudge Security strikes the right balance and helps modern organizations like ours manage the
tide of SaaS sprawl without constraining employees’ abilities to move the business forward.”
“Adversaries are constantly finding new ways to socially engineer employees and attack the vast
supply chain of SaaS applications they’re using to gain access to organizations. Every CISO is aware
of the challenge they’re up against, and now it’s our job to make sure every CISO knows about Nudge
Security and the way they enable employees to be a key part of an enterprise’s defense.”
“Today, every employee acts as their own CIO and can easily reach for a new cloud or SaaS tool to
solve virtually any problem. While organizations see massive gains in productivity and employee
satisfaction from such unencumbered IT adoption, cybersecurity has been slow to adapt.”
“The work that Jaime and Russell did together at AlienVault to build the Open Threat Exchange
changed the way threat researchers and practitioners shared intelligence. As a longtime customer, it
was a no-brainer for Castra to sign on as one of the first Nudge Security customers. We’re excited
about the potential to use this groundbreaking technology to improve service delivery for our
customers.”
“As more data moves to cloud and SaaS environments, threat actors are turning their sights on assets
and user credentials of which security teams may have little to no awareness. Nudge Security has an
innovative approach that helps security teams shore up their defenses against cloud and SaaS
threats, starting at the critical point of making the unknown known.”
“Even in cybersecurity, people’s attitudes and emotions are strong predictors of their behaviors.
Security leaders are setting themselves up for failure when they implement security controls and
policies under the false notion that employees will comply unconditionally, regardless of how
frustrating or unreasonable they find the experience to be.”
“Security teams need to focus on fighting real adversaries, not their colleagues. Nudge Security
alleviates the time spent chasing down employees to get them to follow security policies, and it
does so in a friendly, automated way that’s much more effective and less stressful for everyone
involved.”
“In today's SaaS-fueled enterprise, monitoring access at the network layer is no longer enough.
Context is key, and 'SaaS context as control' becomes the basis for implementing modern
identity- and data-based security controls. Nudge Security innovates beyond other cloud and SaaS
security technologies by providing SaaS context quickly and efficiently across all applications and
user accounts, managed and unmanaged, enabling security and IT professionals to modernize their SaaS
governance efforts.”
"I recently had a chance to try out Nudge Security and the experience was amazing! Here is what
I found awesome: They made it super easy to get started (configured in 5 mins). There were zero
super aggressive sales tactics. Instead of hundreds of alerts, I got to see which ones mattered most
right now. There are no heavy handed controls, it's based on 'nudging' users to make
better security choices."
