Nudge Security automatically discovers SaaS spend and delivers cost optimization insights in a Spend dashboard to help you make data-driven investment decisions and identify quick savings wins.
‍
Now, we’ve enhanced our Spend dashboard with new insights to help you monitor and optimize your SaaS expenses. With these updates, you can:
‍
‍
Manage the authorizing user for your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace integration
‍
Nudge Security enables email discovery using delegated permissions from the email administrator who serves as the authorizing user for your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace integration. Now, we’ve made it easier for you to update your authorizing user when someone leaves your organization or the structure of your team changes.Â
‍
You can change your authorizing user by going to Settings > Email Analysis. Before making the change, just make sure the new user has sufficient email admin privileges.Â
‍
Nudge Security enables you to engage your workforce at scale by nudging users through Slack or email with just-in-time interventions that can be sent through playbooks, automated rules, or manually. Now, Nudge Security will automatically send a second nudge if a user doesn’t respond within three days. Users have 30 days to respond before the nudge expires.
‍
You can keep track of nudges, follow-up nudges, and responses within Nudge History, where you can filter apps by nudge type, response status, date range, app, or user. You can see each app’s Nudge History within its App Overview, or check out your global Nudge History under Notifications > Nudge History within the lefthand navigation.
‍
We’ve released new filters to help you view and prioritize OAuth grants based on OAuth risk insights from Nudge Security. You can sort and filter your organization’s OAuth grants based on insight into an app’s popularity, configuration choices, vendor trust signals, use of restricted or sensitive scopes, and indicators of deceptive practices.Â
‍
We’ve added new filtering options for accounts and OAuth grants within Nudge Security to help you manage your organization's SaaS estate.
‍
Now, you can filter accounts by MFA status to surface and prioritize enrollment gaps. You can also filter accounts and OAuth grants based on categories such as organizational unit, department, division, location, and cost center, which are fields set within Google Workspace or Microsoft 365.
‍
We’ve updated Nudge Security’s menu to make it easier to find functionality like our Overview, AI Usage, and Progress dashboards and our global search bar. Now, all of these features are available within our left hand navigation menu.
‍
We’ve enhanced our search results to make it easier to find and interpret information about the SaaS apps your employees are using. Now, search results from Nudge Security’s main dashboard are clearly organized by type, including apps, accounts, resources, and OAuth grants.
‍
We’ve released a new dashboard to help you visualize and share the progress you’re making toward key SaaS security and governance metrics.Â
‍
With the new dashboard, you can:
‍
Check out today’s blog to learn more about these key metrics and how Nudge Security can help you improve them. Â
‍
‍
Nudge Security has introduced the ability to multi-select filter options. Now, you can choose more than one option in each filter category, making it easier to find what you need with filters. For example, you can use filters to see all apps with approval statuses of Approved, Acceptable, and In Review, rather than looking at one of these approval statuses at a time.Â
‍
‍
We've added a new filter to help you view your employees' accounts by authentication type to see how they're accessing different apps. For example, you might want to look at all accounts created with a username and password, meaning the logins aren't unmanaged by your organization. You can also filter by authentication methods such as Okta, Azure, Google Workspace, Slack, Office, and Github.
‍
We’ve added new filters to help you navigate the OAuth grants in use at your organization. Now, you can filter grants by authorizing application, type, risk, permissions, user account status, admin privileges, or OAuth grant status. For example, you can use filters to quickly find high-risk OAuth grants, or OAuth grants from suspended or disabled users.
‍
‍
We've improved the information we provide for each application account by adding more detail around the authentication methods used by the application. For each account, we are adding insights about which authentication methods are used, the last activity, and the MFA status for each of them. The authentication methods include accounts being accessed via SSO providers like Okta or Azure AD, and Oauth (such as sign-on with Google or Microsoft), as well as accounts created via username and password. We’ve also added the ability to filter accounts by authentication type.
‍
We’ve upgraded the Nudge Security dashboard with key statistics highlighting your organization’s app usage and a new graph to visualize your SaaS adoption rates. You can also see who within your organization is most likely to experiment by adopting new SaaS products, as well as which apps in your supply chain have been breached.
‍
We’ve added a new chart showing the rate of adoption for each of your organization’s applications, helping you understand how and when an app has gained traction among your employees. Visualize how your users have adopted an app over time by filtering the chart to see how many users have been added in the last day, week, month, year, or all-time.
‍
We’ve made it easier to focus on your most relevant accounts by introducing better default filters. Now, we’re filtering deleted accounts and suspended Google Workspace users out of account lists by default. If you want to see the accounts that have been excluded, all you need to do is modify the filter settings at the top of the page. Â
