Shadow IT creates visibility gaps when unmanaged endpoints, unapproved software, and devices outside standard monitoring escape notice, and network discovery alone often fails to reveal them. Wazuh closes this blind spot by collecting endpoint inventory, supporting agentless monitoring, and correlating asset data with vulnerabilities and policy to uncover unauthorized applications and monitoring gaps. #Wazuh
Keypoints
- Shadow IT includes unmanaged hardware, software, and services outside IT and security visibility.
- Network discovery scans show reachability, not full monitoring coverage.
- Wazuh collects detailed endpoint inventory and centralizes it for analysis.
- Wazuh can help identify browser extensions, services, unauthorized software, and unmanaged endpoints.
- Agentless monitoring and enrollment status help measure coverage for non-agent devices and missing endpoints.
