Description
Description
The WatchGuard SaaS DR is a cloud-native SaaS threat detection and response licence that monitors user activity across third-party SaaS and cloud environments such as Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. It runs entirely within WatchGuard Cloud, so there is no additional hardware to deploy.
WatchGuard SaaS DR uses cloud integrations to monitor, detect and report on anomalous user activity and unusual logins, then helps you respond to and remediate those threats. It is licensed per user, making it straightforward to scale to the size of your organisation.
