Here’s how to identify shadow IT, find the root cause and provide a secure alternative to users to prevent data loss and security breaches. There is no shortage of stories in the business press today about the dark and dangerous world of shadow IT where bad guys are stealing corporate data from employees’ personal cloud applications or by hacking into someone’s cell phone or email account. And while this is indeed a real problem, shadow IT can also be much more mundane, albeit just as serious. For a simple explanation of how shadow IT works, one need look no further than Walt Disney’s 1940 animated film Fantasia.

The rise of cloud culture: A sign of further maturation? The idea that IT leaders and their teams should pay attention to broader issues outside of their direct remit has been on the agenda of many businesses for years. IT should play a much greater role, it has been argued, than its traditional speciality of ‘keeping the technology lights on’. But for many, the scope to achieve greater levels of integration has been limited, not least by the need to control IT investment and drive down costs. Now, the rapid adoption of cloud is driving a change in how organisations see IT supporting their business as a whole. A year ago, this meant the emergence of ‘cloud people’, where organisations were increasingly shaping their IT teams with cloud front of mind. At the time, that was an emerging concept, yet just a year later we are seeing the growth of a broader ‘cloud culture’, whose influence is going far beyond tech teams and right into the boardroom. ‘Cloud people’ are here Cloud, in its many...
