Auvik SaaS Management is a cloud-based system designed to provide in-depth insight into SaaS, desktop, and business applications. This Firefox extension is a part of Auvik's SaaS Management offering. It is aimed at bolstering organizational security through visibility into various software applications. By identifying risky behaviors within software ecosystems, it helps IT administrators make informed decisions and keep their users more secure.

What The Firefox Extension Collects and Why
The Auvik SaaS Management browser collector is a browser extension that is installed on each of the individual browsers on the workstation. When the endpoint collector is initially installed, these browsers are installed via group policy / MDM. The browser collector is hosted in the application store for the respective browser. The browser collector has three primary functions:

● Identify the active web application: the browser collector captures the base name (URL) of the web application in use to determine which application to track usage against.

● Identify behaviors justifying classification: the browser collector captures the
events of web form logins, downloads, and usage time on web activity. The collector uses this information to determine when an application needs to be classified.

● Identify single sign-on events: the cloud collector will pull in single-sign-on events to help identify whether applications being accessed are secured with their provider or are used leveraging web form logins

How Does Auvik SaaS Management Use Collected Information

Auvik SaaS Management uses the information gathered by the collector to deliver product features. For example, the usernames collected by the browser collector are analyzed across an entire work environment to check for shared and generic logins. Auvik SaaS Management analyzes, distills, and visually renders SaaS information, then shows it to your approved users through a secure login from a web browser. Auvik SaaS Management stores data in a cloud-hosted, multi-account environment like many SaaS offerings. We follow industry best practices in secure data collection and storage. Auvik SaaS Management encrypts all data at rest. Our encrypted database instances use the industry standard AES-256 encryption algorithm to encrypt your data on the servers. Auvik SaaS Management encrypts all data in transit. All traffic between the collectors is securely sent to the SaaS management data aggregator using data encryption and SSL/TLS. At Auvik, we make it impossible for non-approved employees to access customer information. Systems holding customer data are not exposed publicly and can only be accessed by authorized personnel through a controlled access mechanism. Authorized personnel credentials are regularly rotated based on industry best practices.
