Why You Need to Control Shadow IT, Not Just Discover It

Cloud apps and services like Office 365, Google Suite and Salesforce have enabled organizations to achieve an unprecedented level of collaboration between employees, cost savings, and business efficiency. But with the rapid, often uncontrolled, growth in the adoption of these apps, it shouldn't come as a surprise that a typical CIO or CISO underestimates their organization's adoption of apps by a magnitude of 20x.1 And as an IT professional, you know that it is virtually impossible to control what you cannot see. So gaining visibility into the use of unsanctioned cloud apps, known as Shadow IT, is a critical first step in ensuring your organization’s safe migration to the cloud.
