In today's dynamic landscape of ever-expanding SaaS applications and data utilization, staying ahead of security threats is paramount for modern enterprises. The 2024 [Forrester Consulting Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study](https://start.paloaltonetworks.com/tei-spotlight-prisma-access-2024.html), commissioned by Palo Alto Networks, sheds light on the transformative impact of next-generation [cloud access security brokers](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/cyberpedia/what-is-the-difference-between-a-traditional-casb-and-an-next-generation-casb)(NG-CASB) integrated into [Prisma Access](https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/sase/access), empowering data security administrators with critical insights and capabilities.

## Enhancing Security and Visibility

By seamlessly integrating NG-CASB into Prisma Access, Palo Alto Networks addresses the escalating challenges faced by enterprises in safeguarding diverse SaaS applications. Acting as a vital intermediary, NG-CASB enables real-time monitoring and regulation of traffic between cloud applications and user devices, ensuring proactive threat detection and mitigation.

## Boosting Operational Efficiency and Risk Reduction

The Forrester study found that adding NG-CASB resulted in a 75% improvement in tool management efficiency and a 50% reduction in the likelihood of data breaches. These statistics for a composite organization representative of interviewed customers underscore tangible benefits in terms of operational streamlining and risk mitigation.

## Driving Investments with Strategic Insights

Organizations adopting Prisma Access and NG-CASB cite compelling reasons driving their decision:

* \*\*Addressing Security Gaps:\*\*Legacy solutions often fall short in tackling evolving threats, such as Generative AI. NG-CASB provides real-time Threat Detection and response, as highlighted by industry testimonials.
* \*\*Tackling Data Inaccuracy and Operational Inefficiency:\*\*Manual processes of previous systems resulted in inefficiencies and errors. NG-CASB automates and streamlines these processes, enhancing accuracy and operational effectiveness.
* \*\*Ensuring Compliance Maintenance:\*\*The solution's effectiveness in adhering to evolving regulatory standards emerges as a crucial factor for enterprises.

## Key Outcomes from the Forrester Study

The study presents several key outcomes for organizations leveraging Prisma Access and NG-CASB:

* **Operational Efficiency:** Time savings and increased efficiency in managing cloud applications and understanding application usage patterns.
* **Risk Reduction:** Enhanced control over organizational data and cloud environments leading to visible risk mitigation.
* **Compliance and Security:** Improved compliance with data protection regulations and overall bolstered security posture.

Embracing [NG-CASB in Prisma Access](https://start.paloaltonetworks.com/tei-spotlight-prisma-access-2024.html) by Palo Alto Networks represents a holistic approach to navigating the complexities of SaaS and data challenges confronting modern enterprises. This integration not only fortifies data security but also augments operational efficiency and compliance adherence, ensuring a resilient foundation for organizational success in today's digital landscape.
