Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026

Grip Security is a cloud SaaS security platform for security teams managing applications, identities, permissions, integrations, and AI usage. It is designed for organizations that need policy-driven SSPM across SMB and enterprise environments. Core capabilities include SaaS and shadow SaaS discovery, misconfiguration and security-drift monitoring, permission and access analysis, prioritized risk dashboards, compliance-gap monitoring, and automated remediation workflows. The platform is available through web and API delivery, with a read-write access model.

Its strongest fit is for teams that want security controls connected to identity, IT, collaboration, IT service management, development, and business systems. Grip integrates with Okta, Microsoft Entra ID, Google Workspace, Slack, ServiceNow CMDB, Jira ITSM, GitHub, and Salesforce. It also maps SaaS-to-SaaS relationships, third-party connections, and OAuth activity. These capabilities support identity-driven analysis and help security teams connect discovery with governance, risk prioritization, and response across eight integrations.

Pricing is structured around contact sales rather than published numeric paid-plan rates. The SMB plan includes AI and SaaS discovery, identity-driven SaaS security, threat detection and response, governance, and AI-SPM / SSPM. The Enterprise plan provides highly tailored security solutions. Grip also offers a free, one-time AI Governance Assessment covering AI discovery, an AI governance roadmap, AI app, extension, and agent discovery, OAuth grant and activity visibility, and recommended governance policies with no-code workflows. Organizations seeking broad SaaS, identity, and AI governance should consider Grip; teams wanting transparent self-serve pricing or a longer-established vendor may prefer an alternative.
