Learn the top ways enterprises use a CASB to enforce necessary security controls across their data in Office 365 applications.

As more enterprises adopt Microsoft Office 365, new questions are arising about the security and compliance of corporate data. In moving to the cloud, enterprises outsource server management, upgrades, and datacenter operations to Microsoft.

However, they only partially outsource their security responsibilities. Operating under a shared responsibility model, Microsoft takes responsibility for intrusions into the Office 365 platform. And here comes the “but”, Office 365 customers are still responsible for actions users take that can expose corporate data to loss or create compliance violations.

Previously, most corporate data lived in Windows file servers and on-premises applications, such as SharePoint. Collaboration was primarily done via Exchange Server. Enterprises invested in a generation of security technology built for this environment to enforce corporate policies and protect against threats.
