Shadow SaaS refers to unauthorized or unsanctioned Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) applications that employees or departments use without the knowledge or approval of their organization's IT or security teams. It is a subset of Shadow IT, which broadly includes any IT systems, devices, software, or services used outside the control of official IT governance.


While these tools may improve short-term productivity, they introduce significant security risks to data security, operations and more.  In today's SaaS App-centric world where employees log into hundreds of platforms daily, managing Shadow SaaS has become a security nightmare. 


For CISOs and security leaders, this session will cover the security implications of Shadow SaaS and the right strategies for addressing it. Seats are limited to facilitate meaningful discussion, so sign up today!
