The hidden risks of shadow AI

Staff adoption of unapproved artificial intelligence (AI) tools creates security challenges that organizations must understand and manage. The article examines why employees turn to unauthorized AI solutions and the risks these tools introduce to enterprise environments.

Why it matters: Security teams need visibility into shadow AI usage to assess exposure from unvetted tools, unsanctioned data flows, and potential compliance violations affecting their organization.
