Stop CRM attacks in real time
AppOmni, an SaaS security platform, introduced Zero Trust Bridge, a new capability designed to help enterprises counter a wave of attacks targeting CRM systems. Recent incidents tied to ShinyHunters and UNC6040 have shown how cybercriminals exploit weaknesses inside platforms like Salesforce, stealing sensitive business data.
Traditional Zero Trust network access (ZTNA) verifies connections at the edge but often goes silent once users gain access to SaaS. That silence leaves a blind spot where attackers thrive. AppOmni's Zero Trust Bridge addresses this by implementing the shared signals framework (SSF), enabling SaaS applications to emit standardized risk and activity signals in real time.
These signals can be consumed by enforcement points such as identity providers, secure access service edge (SASE) platforms, and SIEM/SOAR tools, allowing dynamic policy adjustments.
The system also supports continuous access evaluation protocol (CAEP) and risk incident sharing and coordination (RISC), extending them with more than 350 event types.
Active participants, not passive repositories
This coverage includes posture drift, anomalous device or geographic access, suspicious OAuth scopes and cross-application login anomalies. With these capabilities, SaaS applications become active participants in the Zero Trust ecosystem rather than passive data repositories.
A practical example is session hijacking. AppOmni can detect suspicious token reuse or device mismatches and then publish the relevant CAEP or RISC messages. Policy enforcement points can then respond automatically, prompting step-up authentication, reauthorizing or revoking sessions altogether.
By turning SaaS into a signal producer, the company noted, AppOmni restores the feedback loop that Zero Trust requires: detection, signaling, decision and enforcement. Organizations do not need to wait for each SaaS vendor to build SSF support; Zero Trust Bridge normalizes identities, enriches context and delivers actionable signals today.
AppOmni already provides posture controls and threat detection, but with Zero Trust Bridge, it connects SaaS activity directly to broader enterprise defenses. For companies under pressure to safeguard sensitive data, the solution offers a timely way to adapt to threats in real time and stop breaches before they spread, AppOmni stated.
