Shadow AI discovery
Identify indicators of unsanctioned or previously unknown AI use across the assessed environment.
SCOUT / SHADOW AI DISCOVERY
Discover the AI already inside your organization.
Find AI applications, browser extensions and endpoint indicators. Understand exposure before deciding where governance and control should begin.

THE VISIBILITY GAP
AI adoption is distributed, fast and often invisible to central teams.
Procurement records show approved platforms—not every browser extension, endpoint tool or emerging workflow. Scout gives security and governance teams a practical way to start from observed signals rather than assumptions.

CORE CAPABILITIES
Turn scattered signals into an AI exposure picture.
Scout combines technical discovery with governance context so findings can support real decisions.
Application inventory
Organize discovered tools into a usable inventory for security, privacy, risk and governance teams.
Extension discovery
Review browser-extension metadata and permissions that can introduce AI-related exposure.
Endpoint indicators
Surface local signals that help establish how AI tools are entering enterprise workflows.
Exposure scoring
Prioritize observations through an explainable risk model rather than presenting an undifferentiated list.
Executive reporting
Translate discovery and governance questions into leadership-ready findings and next actions.
FROM DISCOVERY TO CONTROL
Finding shadow AI is the beginning—not the deliverable.
Scout is designed to create an actionable pathway from observed tools to risk decisions, governance ownership and proportionate technical controls.
Assess the environment
Gather supported application, extension, endpoint and governance signals.
Build the inventory
Normalize findings into a usable picture of the organization’s AI estate.
Score the exposure
Identify which tools, patterns and gaps deserve attention first.
Create the pathway
Feed decisions into governance, assessment and Guardian policy enforcement.
