Shadow IT Is an Insider Threat (And Not a Malicious One) with ThreatLocker

Shadow IT rarely comes from bad intentions. Most of the time, employees reach for an unsanctioned app because it makes their job easier, not because they want to expose company data.

Ryan Bowman from ThreatLocker walks through why that distinction matters and why it makes shadow IT harder to address: you’re not dealing with a malicious insider, you’re dealing with someone who just never thought about the ramifications.

With mobile devices adding more unsanctioned communication and data transfer than ever, ThreatLocker’s Web Control and Storage Control give security teams the ability to define exactly where data can go and how it can be used.
