Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB)

CASB is a software tool that can be located either on-premises or in the cloud. It is designed to provide an interface between cloud resources (applications) and cloud users. It monitors access to cloud resources including data, issues warnings when a cloud resource may have been compromised, and enforces security policies.

CASBs also provide the means to perform audits, so access to data resources in the past can be analyzed. They are also often used for compliance reporting because they provide insights to data access over time.
