Others monitor cloud-based systems for suspicious activity and provide a mechanism for policy enforcement, reporting and alerting. Some vendors are also pushing the envelope, providing SaaS-based tools for managing incident response activities, a cloud-based sandbox to analyze and identify advanced threats or track and control employee laptops, smartphones and tablets regardless of their location.
