AI is embedded across work. Can you see it?

AI adoption isn’t happening through controlled rollouts or centralized programs. It’s happening everywhere, all at once.

Employees are using AI web apps in the browser. Developers are running coding agents on the endpoint, like Claude Code, and deploying MCP servers and LLMs in the cloud. Your favorite SaaS platforms are now AI-capable, and employees can deploy agents in these environments with the click of a button.

Much of this activity is operating beyond the visibility of security and IT. The result is a widening gap between governance intent and shadow AI reality – and without visibility, control becomes impossible.

What to expect:

  • Examine how shadow AI manifests in enterprise environments
  • Understand where traditional visibility approaches fall short
  • Learn how to map, understand, and begin controlling your AI footprint across users, agents, applications, and workflows

Join us to take the first step toward closing the AI governance gap.
