Scirge gives organizations the tools to discover and manage Shadow IT by tracking where and how corporate credentials are used across SaaS, supply-chain, GenAI, and other web applications. It helps discover Shadow SaaS and Shadow AI, and identify risks like password reuse, shared accounts, and phishing, while providing real-time awareness messages, automated workflows, and actionable insights.
“Using Scirge we have gained a better understanding of the extent of Shadow IT usage, the most risky applications, and user habits. This knowledge enables us to implement security restrictions and notify employees or provide them with training materials to reduce the office's exposure to risks associated with Shadow IT.”

Cloud consumption isn’t limited to major providers like Microsoft or Google or well-known SaaS applications; it also includes third-party Shadow IT web applications where employees use corporate credentials, such as supply chain portals or small service providers.
Scirge uniquely maps an organization’s cloud footprint without relying on SaaS application lists, network logs, or API integrations. Using centrally managed policies and a lightweight browser extension, it monitors SSO and corporate identity usage to discover Shadow IT, Shadow AI, Shadow SSO, monitor SaaS usage, and deliver comprehensive visibility into cloud application activity.
Scirge provides a comprehensive inventory of both password-based logins and single sign-on (SSO) methods like SAML and OpenID. This creates a detailed view of application, account, and user activity.
