Frequently Asked Questions

What is Shadow AI?

Shadow AI is the use of AI tools and applications, such as chatbots or AI assistants, by employees without IT approval or oversight. Like Shadow IT, it creates blind spots, but with the added risk that sensitive company data may be fed into external AI models.

How do you detect Shadow AI in your organization?

Corma detects Shadow AI by scanning your SaaS environment, browser extensions and connected apps to surface every AI tool in use. You get a full inventory of sanctioned and unsanctioned AI applications, plus who is using them.

Why is Shadow AI a risk for businesses?

Shadow AI exposes companies to data leakage, compliance violations and security gaps. Employees may paste confidential data into ungoverned AI tools, with no audit trail and no control over where that data is stored or how it is used.

How is Shadow AI different from Shadow IT?

Shadow IT covers any unapproved software or service, while Shadow AI is the subset specifically involving AI tools. Shadow AI carries unique risks because AI applications often process and retain sensitive data outside your control.

How does Corma help prevent Shadow AI?

Corma surfaces every AI tool in use, flags potential data exposure and lets you govern access from one place. For mid-market teams under GDPR or NIS2, this turns ungoverned AI use into a controlled, auditable process.
