Valence flags risky SaaS configurations and OAuth tokens. Obsidian shows what those tokens and integrations actually did, with the activity evidence to act.

Valence is an SSPM platform. The center of gravity is configuration management: posture cleanup, OAuth grant governance, business-user remediation workflows, and app inventory.
Obsidian secures SaaS and AI as one system. It combines SSPM, SaaS Supply Chain Resilience, AI Security Posture Management, and Identity Threat Detection and Response in a single platform, with the visibility, runtime protection, and continuous governance to act across every application, agent, and integration. SSPM is one pillar, not the whole platform.
Valence cleans up configuration. Obsidian closes SaaS incidents.
Why it matters
Posture cleanup is the start of SaaS security, not the end. The breach surface lives in what's happening inside the apps: who's acting, with which identity, against which data, across which integrations. Obsidian's behavioral detections come from 500+ real SaaS incident response engagements, with identity-linked activity behind every finding. SSPM is the floor, not the ceiling.
Valence helps teams manage SaaS configuration posture, OAuth grants, remediation workflows, and app inventory. But configuration state alone doesn’t answer the questions the SOC needs during an incident: who acted, which identity was used, what data was accessed, which integrations were involved, and where access spread. Obsidian gives security teams activity-backed visibility across identities, permissions, tokens, integrations, and actions, so they can move from posture cleanup to continuous governance, investigation, and response.
Posture findings tell you what’s misconfigured. Activity data tells you what actually happened. Obsidian collects identity-tied activity from inside the apps, so security teams can see role changes, data access, token use, integration behavior, and anomalous actions in context.
Valence is centered on configuration drift, policy violations, OAuth governance, and remediation workflows. Obsidian detects risky behavior inside business-critical SaaS apps, including session abuse, OAuth misuse, suspicious integration activity, identity threats, and anomalous activity at runtime.
When a third-party app or integration is compromised, the SOC needs to know what the integration accessed, which users or identities were affected, and how far the impact spread. Obsidian traces that blast radius across the SaaS estate by tying identity, activity, permissions, token grants, and integrations together in one Knowledge Graph.
Obsidian gives the SOC investigation context in one place: who acted, what changed, what data was touched, which apps were involved, and what needs remediation. That reduces pivots across posture tools, identity tools, logs, tickets, and app-owner workflows.
Posture cleanup is necessary, but it’s not enough to secure SaaS at runtime. Obsidian brings continuous governance, SaaS supply chain resilience, AI security posture management, and identity threat detection and response together in one platform, giving teams runtime protection across apps, agents, integrations, and identities.
