SaaSGuard - 2026 Pricing, Features, Reviews & Alternatives

TotalHeal SaaSGuard. Shows which cloud apps your people use — generative AI, file transfer, remote access and 100 more — how risky each is, and blocks the ones you decide against through DNSGuard.

The problem: People sign up for whatever gets the job done: a free AI assistant for a contract, a file-transfer site for a large export, a remote-desktop tool for a vendor, a PDF converter for a payslip. None of it is on an approved list, and nobody can say which apps hold company data, who uses them, or whether the one that was banned last quarter is still in use.

How it works: SaaSGuard learns which cloud apps are used from what TotalHeal already sees — DNSGuard’s hourly count per app, DNS logs and the host names in network-sensor and firewall events — and matches it against a catalogue of 106 applications in 19 categories. Each app gets a risk and a decision: sanctioned, tolerated or blocked. Blocking goes through DNSGuard on every network straight away.

- Discovery without an agent or a proxy: Usage comes from DNSGuard’s hourly SaaS counts, full DNS logs where a policy keeps them, and the host names in NetWatch sensor and firewall events already in TotalHeal. Nothing new is installed and no traffic is decrypted.

- Privacy by design: DNSGuard sends the app and how many clients used it in each hour — never URLs, page content or anyone’s browsing history. Personal (BYOD) networks and policies that log nothing are never counted, and discovery can be turned off per policy.

- A catalogue of 106 cloud apps: Office suites, storage, file transfer, messaging, video meetings, generative AI, collaboration, document tools, translation, e-signature, development, cloud consoles, paste sites and tunnels, remote access, CRM, marketing, web mail, social media and streaming — matched by their domains, the most specific first.

- Risk for every app: Each category has a base risk from what it lets data do (file transfer, paste sites and tunnels: very high; generative AI, remote access, document tools: high); wide use raises it, and a sanctioned app is lowest.

- What each app is used for: Look-ups, refused look-ups, users, networks, sources, first and last seen, and use by day over up to 90 days, for every app seen or decided.

- Sanction, tolerate or block: Every decision carries a note and is kept in the audit trail. Blocking puts the app’s domains on the deny list of every DNSGuard policy straight away; unblocking or sanctioning removes exactly the domains SaaSGuard added and nothing an administrator put there.

- New risky apps raise an alert: Every hour SaaSGuard checks for apps used for the first time; a high-risk one nobody has reviewed raises an alert mapped to MITRE ATT&CK (T1567 exfiltration over web services, T1219 remote access software) in the same incident queue as endpoint and identity alerts.

- Block new apps automatically: Choose categories — paste sites and tunnels, file transfer, remote access — and a new app in them is blocked the first time it is seen. Apps you already decided about are never changed.

- Generative AI in view: ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, DeepSeek, Perplexity and other AI assistants are their own category, so you can see who uses them and sanction the one the company pays for.

Deployment: SaaS, On-premises control plane and Air-gapped.
