Revolutionizing SaaS Security with OvereWebsite: https://www.overe.io/In this episode, Uncle Marv welcomes Paul Barnes, co-founder and CEO of Overe, to discuss their SaaS security platform and its role in the IT Nation Pitch It Accelerator program. Overe focuses on providing automated security analysis and continuous monitoring for SaaS applications, addressing the increasing number of cloud security incidents. Key Highlights: 
  • Introduction to Overe: Paul explains that Overe was created to address the growing need for SaaS and cloud application security. The company offers two main products: Novia Assess, a free tool for visibility and risk assessment, and Overe Protect, a comprehensive service for policy enforcement and adversarial activity response.
  • Focus on Microsoft 365: Overe initially targets Microsoft 365 due to its widespread use among MSPs and their clients. The company plans to expand to other popular SaaS applications like Google Workspace.
  • M365 Benchmark Audit: Overe's free assessment tool goes beyond Microsoft's security score by providing a customized score based on the client's licenses, company attributes, and security policies. It also includes dark web monitoring and MFA status checks.
  • Licensing and Security: Paul discusses the challenges MSPs face in upgrading clients from basic to premium security licenses. Overe's tools help MSPs demonstrate the need for higher security levels without necessarily pushing for the expensive E5 license.
  • Automated Responses: Overe's platform includes automated policy enforcement and response to adversarial activities. The system continuously monitors for policy drifts and automatically re-enforces security settings if they are altered.
  • Framework Alignment: Overe's policies align with frameworks like NIST and CMMC, providing MSPs with benchmarking against industry standards.
  • Unique Selling Points: Overe differentiates itself with a user-friendly setup, comprehensive threat intelligence, and integration with endpoint data to reduce false positives and provide high-confidence alerts.
  • Market Strategy: While Overe is focused on MSPs, the platform is also accessible to mid-market and enterprise clients. The company is expanding its presence in the U.S., recognizing the significant market potential.
  • Future Plans: Overe aims to enhance its product offerings, expand its monitoring capabilities, and strengthen its U.S. sales and distribution channels. The company is committed to supporting MSPs and attending industry events like IT Nation.
