What is ShadowSaaS?
Every organization has a shadow IT problem. Employees sign up for SaaS tools with their corporate email, bypass SSO, store company data in unapproved platforms - and IT never knows. ShadowSaaS detects every SaaS application used across the organization by analyzing login pages, OAuth flows, and SSO redirects. Deployed silently via MDM or GPO. Fully anonymous - it counts usage, never identifies employees.
Features
- Enterprise deployment - Installed via MDM (Intune, JAMF) or GPO. Not available on the public Chrome Web Store. Silent, zero-touch rollout.
- SaaS detection - Identifies SaaS usage through login page fingerprinting, OAuth authorization flows, and SSO redirect analysis.
- 500+ SaaS fingerprints - Built-in database covering major SaaS platforms across productivity, dev tools, design, finance, HR, and communication.
- Unknown SaaS heuristics - Detects previously unknown SaaS applications using login form patterns, OAuth endpoints, and authentication flow signatures.
- Approved/unapproved classification - Tag approved tools in your policy. Every detected SaaS is instantly classified as sanctioned or shadow IT.
- Anonymous counting - Reports usage volume per SaaS without identifying individual employees. Privacy by design - no user tracking, no browsing history.
- SSO adoption tracking - Measures how many SaaS logins go through your SSO versus direct authentication. Quantifies your SSO coverage gap.
- Compliance verification - Checks detected SaaS platforms against SOC2, ISO27001, and HDS certification databases. Flags uncertified tools handling company data.
