AppOmni, a leader in SaaS security, unveiled significant platform updates at Black Hat 2025 to address the growing risks associated with artificial intelligence (AI) and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications. The innovations focus on identifying and securing both sanctioned and unsanctioned (shadow) AI applications, including those embedded within SaaS platforms, while offering enhanced threat detection and support for 30 new applications.
The rapid adoption of AI has introduced a complex attack surface, with AI tools—whether embedded in platforms like M365 or Google Workspace or operating as standalone agents—accessing sensitive data across SaaS environments. AppOmni’s updated platform empowers security teams to understand their AI risk exposure by identifying both sanctioned and shadow AI applications. This capability is critical as unsanctioned AI usage can lead to data breaches and compliance issues. The platform now supports 30 new applications, including Anthropic, ChatGPT Enterprise, Cisco Umbrella, Cisco Secure Access, Claude, Gong, and OpenAI, ensuring comprehensive coverage of widely used tools.
AppOmni introduced three new product packages to meet organizations at various stages of SaaS security maturity. The Foundations package is designed for fast-growing companies, offering tools to discover shadow SaaS and AI, manage app users and permissions, and detect threats or anomalous activities. It includes a free SaaS and AI Attack Surface Assessment and a 90-day trial. The Advanced package targets large organizations with sophisticated threat detection and SaaS security posture controls. The Enterprise package caters to companies with mature security programs, providing granular control over SaaS security settings and deep integration with existing security stacks.
The platform’s enhanced threat detection capabilities enable real-time monitoring and analysis of SaaS and AI applications, helping organizations identify and respond to risks promptly. By focusing on both human and non-human identities, AppOmni ensures comprehensive visibility and control, mitigating threats like SaaS and AI drift. These innovations align with findings from AppOmni’s State of SaaS Security 2025 Report, which notes that 30% of businesses seek advanced SaaS security solutions to reduce risks.
“AppOmni’s new level of integrated capabilities delivers faster desired outcomes for both organizations and channel partners alike,” said Mark Butler, CISO (Advisory) at Trace3, a leader in emerging technology solutions. “The ability to discover, analyze, monitor, and secure the expanding landscape of SaaS and AI applications is a game-changer. Strengthening organizations’ ability to maintain full visibility, defend against SaaS and AI drift, and ensure the intended use of critical SaaS apps and AI backed software drives increased business revenue and protects data while moving at the velocity of innovation.”
AppOmni’s latest advancements position it as a leader in addressing the intertwined challenges of SaaS and AI security. By offering scalable solutions and proactive governance, the company enables organizations to embrace AI securely while safeguarding sensitive data and maintaining compliance in a rapidly evolving threat landscape.
