Stop chasing shadow IT. Start governing around It.

Shadow IT has shifted from a one-off IT headache to a broader business and cybersecurity issue. TechRadar’s “Stop Chasing Shadow IT. Start Governing Around It” looks at why many organizations are moving away from trying to eliminate shadow IT and toward governance models that manage risk while still allowing teams to innovate. As AI-powered tools become easier for employees to adopt on their own, we’re seeing governance become a core part of a modern cybersecurity strategy for many of the small businesses we support at FUSION 1. We help organizations rethink how they govern cloud apps and AI tools so they can reduce overhead, control risk, and keep people productive.
