SAMaaS / Licensing Assurance
Main challenges for Software Asset Management
There are organizations today that, regardless of their size or line of business, do not exercise adequate control over their software licensing, resulting in inefficient use of systems and applications. In some cases, this inefficiency results in overinvestment due to the lack of understanding of the organization’s real necessities.
Likewise, these companies may run the risk of an audit on behalf of software providers or a regulatory authority, as it is currently very possible to acquire business software illegitimately. Consequences can range from financial sanctions as a result of non-compliance with local or international regulations to the vulnerability and risks of exposure of the organization’s sensitive information associated with the software itself.
