Nudge Security

Nudge Security is a cloud-native SaaS security platform that focuses on discovering SaaS usage across an organization, assessing identity-related risks, and enabling user-driven remediation through behavioral nudges. Rather than functioning as an identity provider or enforcement gateway, Nudge Security complements existing IAM systems by analyzing OAuth activity, IdP connections, and employee SaaS behavior to reduce shadow IT and strengthen security posture.

Key Capabilities

• SaaS discovery and inventory: Automatically detects all SaaS apps and accounts used across the organization, including unmanaged, personal, or unauthorized OAuth app connections.

• Identity provider integrations: Connects with Okta, Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD), Google Workspace, and other IdPs to aggregate sign-in, OAuth, and SCIM activity data.

• OAuth risk insights: Identifies risky or over-privileged OAuth grants, highlighting who authorized them, when, and with what scopes or permissions.

• API-first design: Exposes REST APIs and webhooks for integrating with SIEM, SOAR, ticketing, and automation systems to streamline incident response and risk management.

Limitations

• Federation role: Nudge Security is not an IdP or SSO provider; it integrates with existing identity platforms to analyze SaaS activity.

• Protocol coverage: While it works with SAML, OIDC, and OAuth data from connected IdPs, it does not issue or consume tokens directly.

• SCIM role: Monitors SCIM provisioning metadata from connected IdPs but does not function as a SCIM 2.0 provider or consumer.

• MFA/policy enforcement: Provides recommendations and nudges for user action, but enforcement and policy execution remain the responsibility of connected IdPs or CASB systems.

• Cloud-only delivery: Offered exclusively as a SaaS service with no on-premises or self-hosted deployment option.
