description: Adaptive Shield (now CrowdStrike Falcon Shield) is a SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM) platform that continuously
  monitors, remediates, and governs SaaS application security configurations and identity risks. Acquired by CrowdStrike,
  the platform covers 200+ SaaS integrations with over 3,500 built-in security checks, helping organizations detect misconfigurations,
  manage human and non-human identities, discover shadow applications, and maintain compliance across their entire SaaS stack.
  The REST API (v1) enables programmatic access to alerts, user inventory, device inventory, integrations, security checks,
  and compliance data.
