Shining a Light on Shadow AI

The Hidden Risk to Data Security

July 15, 2025 12 p.m. ET Virtual Zoom Session Shawn Hays

🔦 Shadow AI thrives in the dark — but not for long.

Shadow AI is what happens when employees turn to tools like ChatGPT and Copilot without the IT team's visibility or control — and we see it happening in almost every company.

The result? Increased risk of sensitive data leaks, compliance violations, and loss of IP.

In this session, we’ll shine a light on how shadow AI is infiltrating your organization, regardless of whether you have official AI tools in place, and what you can do to regain visibility and control.

Not based in the US? We're also running this live webinar in EMEA on July 23 and APAC on July 24.
