How to Review Security Before Connecting a New SaaS Tool to Company Files

A SaaS tool that requests file access may be able to read, create, or share a wide range of company documents. The integration can persist through an OAuth grant even after a user stops using the tool.

What to check

Review requested scopes, publisher identity, data storage and deletion terms, admin controls, audit events, sharing defaults, and the business owner. Determine whether access can be limited to a test folder or group before granting organization-wide consent.

Recommended next step

Approve only the access needed for a documented use case, assign a service owner, and schedule a grant review. Revoke the connection when it is no longer needed and retain evidence of the approval decision.
