3 Ways Resellers Can Lead the Way in SaaS Security





Enterprises today face a broad array of challenges as they navigate hybrid workspaces and an increasing reliance on digital platforms. New innovations are emerging daily to create rich virtual experiences for workers, customers, and partners. In fact, Gartner projects a $20B increase in SaaS spend for 2021 and 2022. With that, security has never been more crucial. For resellers, there are huge opportunities to lead the way in secure, cloud-based digital transformation.


Software as a service (or SaaS) is a way of delivering applications over the Internet—as a service. Instead of installing and maintaining software.

What is SaaS?

Multitenant Architecture

A multitenant architecture, in which all users and applications share a single, common infrastructure and code base that is centrally maintained. Because SaaS vendor clients are all on the same infrastructure and code base, vendors can innovate more quickly and save the valuable development time previously spent on maintaining numerous versions of outdated code.

Easy Customisation

The ability for each user to easily customise applications to fit their business processes without affecting the common infrastructure. Because of the way SaaS is architected, these customisations are unique to each company or user and are always preserved through upgrades. That means SaaS providers can make upgrades more often, with less customer risk and much lower adoption cost.

Better Access

Improved access to data from any networked device while making it easier to manage privileges, monitor data use, and ensure everyone sees the same information at the same time.

SaaS Harnesses the Consumer Web

Anyone familiar with Amazon.com or My Yahoo! will be familiar with the Web interface of typical SaaS applications. With the SaaS model, you can customise with point-and-click ease, making the weeks or months it takes to update traditional business software seem hopelessly old fashioned.

SaaS Trends

Organisations are now developing SaaS integration platforms (or SIPs) for building additional SaaS applications. The consulting firm Saugatuck Technology calls this the “third wave” in software adoption: when SaaS moves beyond standalone software functionality to become a platform for mission-critical applications.

SaaS is one of several cloud computing solutions for business IT issues. Other ‘as-a-Service’ options include:

  • Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) – the provider hosts hardware, software, storage and other infrastructure component
  • Platform as a Service (PaaS)
  • Everything as a service (XaaS) – which is essentially all the "aaS" tools neatly packaged together.

The payment model for these kinds of services is typically a per-seat, per-month charge based on usage – so a business only has to pay for what they need, reducing upfront costs.

SaaS v packaged software

In the past, businesses bought and relied on packaged software – from multi-application systems covering spreadsheets, databases and email to specialist packages for particular tasks like project management or business intelligence.

Packaged software – the drawbacks

To use sales and marketing as an example, a business may have used on-premises software for CRM.

  • This software needed to be evaluated, bought, installed, kept secure, maintained and regularly upgraded on in-house systems by the internal IT department.
  • Using packaged software placed a burden on the IT team which could turn into a bottleneck for projects.
  • A business could end up needing to support a wide variety of systems side by side, but find it tricky to integrate them as they were coded and built differently.
  • This approach also presented upfront costs for software and licences and potentially servers for the software to sit on.
  • The costs of the CRM software and hardware might mean it is not affordable for small businesses. It could also be difficult to scale up quickly in response to growth or change.
