Valence SaaS and AI Security Platform
Finds and fixes SaaS and AI misconfigurations, data exposure, and identity threats in 175+ apps.
Valence SaaS and AI Security Platform Overview
What it does
The Valence SaaS and AI Security Platform unifies SaaS discovery, SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM), AI Security Posture Management (AI-SPM), risk remediation, and Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) in one console spanning more than 175 business applications. It targets the risk created by SaaS and AI sprawl: shadow applications, configuration drift, overly permissive sharing, ungoverned OAuth integrations, and the growing population of AI agents and non-human identities operating inside enterprise SaaS environments.
How it works
The platform connects to business-critical applications such as Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Salesforce, and Slack and builds a continuously updated inventory of applications, human and non-human identities, OAuth tokens, API keys, and SaaS-to-SaaS integrations, with most organizations gaining visibility within hours of deployment. Configuration findings are checked for drift against defined baselines and mapped to frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA. A Remediation by Choice model resolves issues through guided steps, one-click fixes, ticket-based workflows, or fully automated actions, while ITDR monitoring correlates suspicious activity across applications and can disable accounts or revoke tokens.
Credentials and traction
SOC 2 Type II attested, with audits performed by external auditors. Valence was named a Leader and Fast Mover in the 2024 GigaOm Radar for SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM) and was an Innovation Sandbox finalist at RSA 2023. Published case studies and customers include Elastic, Lionbridge, ServiceTitan, Riskified, Swimlane, and Akamai, alongside enterprises such as Corelight and Perry Ellis.
Key Capabilities
mapped to solution categoriesDetects sensitive content shared publicly or externally from connected SaaS apps, such as world-readable files, anonymous share links, and over-shared folders, so exposure can be revoked before it leaks.
Maps SaaS configuration findings to CIS SaaS Benchmarks, CISA SCuBA secure configuration baselines, NIST 800-53, ISO 27001 and SOC 2 control requirements, and generates auditor-ready evidence from automated checks rather than manual screenshots, so that SaaS posture can be validated against published standards as they emerge.
Automatically corrects specific SaaS misconfigurations or revokes excessive permissions without manual intervention.
Inventories the generative AI features embedded in SaaS applications and the AI agents and assistants granted access to SaaS tenants, including connections made through MCP, showing which models are in use, how they connect and what data and permissions they hold, so that shadow AI inside sanctioned SaaS is governed alongside other integrations.
Discovers SaaS applications in use that are not yet connected to the platform, using identity provider logs, browser telemetry, email and API signals rather than network traffic, so that unsanctioned and unmanaged tenants can be brought under posture management. Discovery depth varies widely across vendors.
Compares each connected SaaS tenant's security settings against vendor best practices and the customer's own baselines, reports misconfigurations and drift, and explains the fix, with the depth of checks and advice varying by application. Coverage of enterprise SaaS applications through native admin APIs, including smaller business-critical apps, also varies by vendor.
Discovers the third-party applications, marketplace plug-ins and add-ons, and AI agents connected to core SaaS environments through OAuth grants, API tokens or MCP, maps the permissions each has been granted, and flags high-risk, over-scoped or unused connections for revocation, so that user-installed integrations do not become an unmanaged path to tenant data.
Identifies over-privileged users, dormant accounts, and excessive license assignments within SaaS applications, producing a right-sizing recommendation per application.
Maps integration connections between SaaS applications (API keys, webhooks, shared credentials) to surface unmanaged data flows and integration attack surface.
Analyzes SaaS application activity logs to detect compromised credentials, stolen session tokens, insider misuse and anomalous behavior by human and non-human identities inside and across SaaS applications, so that the most common SaaS breach path is caught within the SaaS estate and not only at the identity provider.
Assesses the identities and service accounts that AI models, pipelines, and agents use, flagging over-permissioned non-human identities and access paths that violate least privilege. Reports identity risk as a posture finding, distinct from enforcing access policies at the model API at runtime.
Automatically discovers AI models, LLM API connections, ML pipelines, and AI-enabled SaaS applications in use across the organization, including those deployed without IT authorization.
Discovers and enforces least-privilege access for non-human and AI-agent identities across systems and data.
Monitors AI-agent behavior at runtime to detect anomalous or malicious actions and policy violations.
Detects sensitive or regulated data in AI training, fine-tuning, or third-party LLM flows without appropriate controls, such as unencrypted PII in inputs or PHI sent to external APIs.
