Obsidian Security, a recognized leader in SaaS security, has introduced its next-generation suite of solutions designed to strengthen SaaS security and compliance across organizations. The new platform includes Obsidian Compliance Posture Management, Obsidian Integration Risk Management, and Obsidian Extend, providing security and GRC teams with tools to significantly enhance visibility and control over their SaaS environments.

“For too long, Security and GRC teams have faced challenges due to limited visibility into their growing network of SaaS applications. Every new integration can introduce additional organizational risk, leaving security leaders concerned,” said Glenn Chisholm, Chief Product Officer at Obsidian Security. “At the same time, GRC and compliance teams often lack efficient tools to collect and verify evidence for regulatory compliance, sometimes taking months to do so. Our platform addresses these gaps by enabling both teams to collaborate more effectively and confidently manage risk.”
