Uncover Shadow IT
Valence helps security teams discover and mitigate the risks associated with shadow SaaS applications to ensure complete visibility, reduce compliance gaps, and safeguard sensitive data
Shadow IT—unsanctioned SaaS applications adopted without IT or security team approval—poses a growing risk to organizations. These tools, increasingly AI-powered, are often introduced by individuals or teams to boost productivity, operate outside of IT oversight, creating blind spots and increasing exposure to unauthorized access and data breaches.
These applications bypass identity provider (IdP) and single sign-on (SSO) management, often lack proper security configurations and introduce unmanaged identities and sensitive data risks, which extend your attack surface. Additionally, unsanctioned apps may remain active after their owners leave the organization, exposing sensitive data and leading to compliance violations.
The Valence Solution
Valence’s platform enables organizations to uncover shadow IT with unparalleled visibility into all SaaS applications in use across the business—sanctioned or unsanctioned. By leveraging multiple discovery methods, Valence provides a centralized inventory of applications, helping security teams identity and eliminate shadow IT risks. With Valence, security teams can monitor for non-SSO connected applications and accounts, discover applications that may pose data security problems, and enforce security policies to minimize security risks.
