Why SaaS Sprawl and GenAI Require New Approaches to IT Governance
ON-DEMAND WEBINAR
Most technology used in the workplace today is delivered as a SaaS app, including genAI tools. However, SaaS apps are increasingly adopted and managed outside of the IT team while IT is still held 100% responsible for securing and managing this expanding footprint of “shadow SaaS.”
Traditional approaches to IT governance like network-based discovery, blocking, and lengthy approval processes have proven ineffective and may actually push unsanctioned SaaS apps further into the shadows.
In this session, we’ll cover:
– The psychology behind why these legacy approaches don’t work
– New IT governance approaches that are proving to be more effective
– Tactics to identify and mitigate shadow SaaS
– Proactive measures to help avoid future SaaS sprawl
