SaaS platforms were meant to simplify work – but in 2025, they’ve become a goldmine for attackers. Why? Because they now store everything from customer PII to financial data, yet most teams still treat them like plug-and-play apps with little to no security oversight.
If you think your SaaS stack is secure because you use MFA or a reputable vendor, think again.
The top threats today are quiet, invisible, and dangerously easy to overlook:
- Shadow SaaS – Unapproved tools adopted by employees without IT’s knowledge.
- Poor API hygiene – Vulnerable integrations creating silent backdoors.
- Token hijacking – Once logged in, attackers ride open sessions.
- Over-permissioned accounts – Users with far more access than needed.
- Lack of SaaS visibility – No central monitoring across tools.
- Insider misuse – Intentional or careless data exposure from within.
- SaaS-to-SaaS pivoting – One app breached leads to lateral compromise.
- No contextual risk modeling – Same alerts for all, no nuance.
And here’s the catch: traditional security tools don’t cover these risks. Most detection systems focus on endpoint, network, or email – not the apps your team lives in 10 hours a day.
That’s why AUMINT.io focuses on people-powered SaaS deception training. We simulate real-world attack flows across your stack – Teams, Slack, Drive, Trello, Salesforce – helping staff recognize and report the behavioral red flags attackers rely on.
Your biggest SaaS risk isn’t technical – it’s human. And the only way to secure it is to train them where the attacks happen.
