AI has changed both offense and defense. Adversaries now use automated reconnaissance, convincing phishing at scale, password‑spray orchestration, and code/credential harvesting from public artifacts. In response, SaaS security is evolving from perimeter and point controls to identity‑centric, policy‑as‑code, evidence‑driven programs with automated detection and response. The winners operate as secure‑by‑default platforms: least‑privilege identities, hard‑to‑abuse data … Read more

Applied correctly, blockchain can harden SaaS security postures and make operations more transparent to customers, partners, and regulators. What problems does blockchain solve for SaaS? Common SaaS security and transparency … Read more
