Shadow AI Control for Internal IT Teams
Your employees are using AI tools nobody approved. ShadowLock gives in-house IT and security teams the visibility, enforcement, and reporting to get ahead of it — without an MSP, an E5 license, or a quarter-long rollout.

Can an in-house IT team run shadow-AI control without an MSP?
Yes. ShadowLock is built for in-house IT and security teams to detect unsanctioned AI use, block sensitive data from reaching AI tools, and report on exposure — all from a single console, with no MSP, no Microsoft 365 E5 license, and no platform migration. One administrator can run it for the entire organization.
Why in-house IT teams choose ShadowLock
You don't need a security operations center to get shadow-AI under control. You need visibility, enforcement, and a report you can take upstairs.
See your AI exposure in days, not a quarter
Most "AI governance" projects stall in planning. ShadowLock starts producing real data the day the agent installs: which AI tools your people use, on which machines, with what data. No discovery workshop, no consultant, no quarter-long rollout before you learn anything.
One team, every endpoint, one console
In-house IT does not have a per-site security team. ShadowLock covers the endpoint, the browser, and the Microsoft 365 tenant from a single dashboard, so one admin can run shadow-AI control for the whole org without stitching together three tools.
Answer the question leadership is already asking
The board read the headline; your CISO wants a number. Show up with a working shadow-AI program and a board-ready report instead of "we think we're fine." When the AI question comes — and it will — you have evidence, not a shrug.
Turn the policy you already wrote into reality
You probably already have an AI acceptable-use policy. ShadowLock enforces it: block sensitive data from reaching ChatGPT, allow the tools you sanction, and educate users at the moment they try something risky — so the document stops being a PDF nobody follows.
Internal IT FAQ
Is ShadowLock only for MSPs, or can in-house IT teams use it?
Both. ShadowLock is built for in-house IT and security teams running shadow-AI control for a single organization, as well as MSPs managing many. The same multi-tenant platform works whether you have one org or fifty — internal IT teams just operate within their own organization.
How fast can an internal IT team get value?
Fast. Push the agent through your existing endpoint management, force-install the browser extension via Chrome/Edge enterprise policies, and AI activity starts flowing into the dashboard the same day. You get a real picture of your shadow-AI exposure in days, not the quarter-long project most governance initiatives turn into.
We already have an AI acceptable use policy. Why do we need a tool?
A written policy without enforcement is a hope, not a control. ShadowLock turns the policy into reality — detecting unsanctioned AI use, blocking sensitive data from being pasted into AI tools, and producing an audit trail when something goes wrong. It is the difference between having a policy and being able to prove it is followed.
Do we need Microsoft 365 E5 or a big security stack to run this?
No. ShadowLock is a focused, endpoint-native control with transparent per-device pricing — no E5 license, no SIEM, and no platform migration required. It runs alongside whatever endpoint and identity tooling you already have.
Can one administrator manage this for the whole organization?
Yes. ShadowLock is designed so a single IT admin can run shadow-AI detection, policy enforcement, and reporting for the entire org from one console. Policies cascade from the organization level down to individual devices, with per-device overrides where you need them.
How ShadowLock compares

AI-native XDR with no M365 scanning. We scan the tenant and publish a price.
Browser-only. We add endpoint and M365 tenant.
Blocks AI apps. We inspect the prompt content.
Resolver-layer only. Blind to embedded AI and M365 OAuth.
Browser isolation. We are purpose-built for shadow AI.
Governs shadow AI inside the E5 stack. We need no E5 license.
