Shadow IT in the Cloud

Presented at DerbyCon 9.0 Finish Line (2019), Sept. 7, 2019, 5 p.m. (30 minutes).

Shadow IT refers to technology that is procured outside of official channels, processes and/or procedures meaning they aren’t vetted or managed by the IT and Security organizations. We all know about Shadow IT and the risks and dangers that come with that but what about Shadow IT in the Cloud – now that’s a scary thought. Now you have data in the hands of others and NO ONE KNOWS about it which means there isn’t any governance around it either. How do we lock down data in the cloud and ensure we have everything in place to avoid data loss or breach while also giving the business and other teams the tools they need to do their work? How do we block these ‘scary’ cloud services like file stores, pdf merger sites, code beautifiers, etc. when cloud is quickly becoming the new normal?
