AI Usage Security / AI Discovery

Find the AI
you can't see.

Every sanctioned tool.
Every shadow copilot.

You cannot govern what you cannot see. Anzenna discovers every AI app in use across your stack, sanctioned or not, and shows who is using it and with what data.

The problem

Shadow AI grows faster than policy.

Employees adopt AI tools the moment they help, long before security reviews them. A copilot here, a personal ChatGPT account there, an OAuth grant to a new SaaS assistant. Each one quietly touches code, customer records, or strategy documents.

Traditional inventory misses most of it. CASB and SaaS management tools see sanctioned apps and named integrations. They do not see browser-based AI, personal accounts, or the agent a developer wired into a workflow last week.

Discovery is the first control in any shadow AI detection program. Without a live inventory, every other AI guardrail is guesswork.

The full picture

The whole AI surface, tied to the person.

Discovery is not an inventory dump. Anzenna reads every AI artifact across your fleet through the EDR, MDM, identity, and developer tools you already run, then does the part that matters: it connects each one to an employee, a device, and a pattern of behavior.

  • AI agents like Claude, Cursor, and Copilot, mapped to the install and the person behind it.
  • MCP servers graded official, community, or unknown, with the filesystem and network reach they hold.
  • Extensions, plugins, skills, and exposed secrets, weighed against your allowlist.

How we see it

One inventory, three verdicts.

An inventory tells you what. Anzenna tells you who, and whether it belongs.

Sanctioned

Approved tools used the way they were intended, by the people meant to use them.

Confirm. Keep the inventory live as usage shifts.
Shadow

Personal accounts and self-service installs that never passed a security review.

Surface. Attribute each to a person and a risk score.
Rogue

An agent or grant reaching far beyond its purpose, quietly widening its access.

Revoke. Cut it in one click, with an audit trail.
What you get

A written case, not another list.

Discovery surfaces the risk as an attributed case, ready to action.

How it works

From blind spot to live inventory.

Anzenna connects agentlessly to the systems you already run and assembles a continuous picture of AI usage, no endpoint rollout required.

  1. 01

    Connect

    Read-only API access across 130+ identity, SaaS, cloud, and endpoint sources. Live in minutes, with nothing to deploy to a device.

  2. 02

    Discover

    Surface every AI app in use: sanctioned tools, shadow copilots, OAuth grants to AI assistants, and browser-based generative tools.

  3. 03

    Attribute

    Map each tool to the people using it, the data it can reach, and a behavioral risk score, so the list is a decision aid, not noise.

  4. 04

    Enforce

    Apply guardrails, route to review, or revoke unsanctioned access in one click, with a transparent audit trail a CISO can defend.

Point-in-time audits miss it.
Anzenna watches continuously.

Manual SaaS audits and CASB inventories catch named, sanctioned apps. Anzenna reasons over identity and behavior to surface the AI usage that never shows up in a vendor list.

FAQ

Common questions.

What counts as shadow AI?+

Any AI tool used without security review: personal ChatGPT or Claude accounts, unsanctioned copilots, AI browser extensions, and OAuth-connected AI assistants. Anzenna surfaces all of them, not just the sanctioned apps on an approved list.

How does Anzenna find AI usage without an endpoint agent?+

It reads metadata over read-only API access to identity providers, SaaS apps, and cloud platforms you already run. AI usage leaves traces in OAuth grants, sign-in logs, and SaaS activity that Anzenna correlates into a live inventory.

Does discovery block tools automatically?+

Only if you want it to. Discovery produces an attributed inventory and risk scores. You decide what to allow, route to review, or revoke, and Anzenna can enforce that decision in one click.

How is this different from a CASB?+

A CASB watches sanctioned cloud traffic and known apps. Anzenna reasons over identity and behavior across your whole stack, so it catches personal accounts, browser AI, and new agents a CASB was never configured to see.
