New Shadow IT Finder Helps Orgs Find the Unknowns Behind 1 in 3 Breaches
You can’t protect what you don’t know about. With the transition to remote work, growing cloud adoption and increasing M&A introducing new and unknown risks, shadow IT has become a growing problem for enterprise security teams. On average, Randori finds that 30% of exposed assets are unknown to security teams.
New data from ESG Analyst Jon Oltsik highlights the scope of the problem, with 69% of organizations admitting to having been compromised due to an unknown or unmanaged asset and Gartner estimates that 1 in 3 breaches originate with Shadow IT.
Having partnered with dozens of organizations to regain control of their attack surfaces, three trends have emerged: 1) everyone has Shadow IT, even the most mature organizations 2) finding and identifying shadow IT is a time-consuming and grueling operational challenge and 3) even when done well, security teams today lack the tools to effectively identify shadow IT stood up outside the corporate network.
Randori Recon’s black-box approach to discovery has long enabled our platform to identify and discover unknown assets other EASM solutions miss, including IPv6 & cloud assets. However, for organizations with thousands or tens of thousands of exposed systems – identifying these unknowns could be challenging. This is the problem we sought to help our customers solve with our new Shadow IT Finder.
