Achieve 192% ROI With Obsidian SaaS Security

Obsidian Security partnered with Forrester Consulting to evaluate the real-world business and financial impact of Obsidian SaaS Security. In this commissioned Total Economic Impact™ (TEI) study, Forrester interviewed enterprise security leaders using Obsidian to secure complex SaaS and AI environments, and modeled the financial outcomes for a composite global enterprise. 

The results speak for themselves: 192% ROI, $4.1M in net present value (NPV), and payback in under six months

The study also found measurable reductions in financial and operational risk: 

• Reduced breach exposure by 20%, representing over $1.3M in risk-adjusted value 
• Avoided $2.4M in audit penalties and saved $2.2M in labor costs by eliminating the need to hire additional security engineers
• Cut audit preparation time by 90% and reclaimed 25% of security team time through automation and centralized visibility

As SaaS usage, GenAI apps, and AI agents expand across the enterprise, security teams need visibility and control across human-to-SaaS, SaaS-to-SaaS, and AI-to-SaaS interactions.

The Forrester TEI study provides a detailed financial framework to evaluate how Obsidian SaaS Security can reduce breach risk, strengthen compliance, scale securely, and drive meaningful cost savings.
