ShadowSight shows you where sensitive data is quietly leaking through everyday work.

Problems We Solve

THE REALITY

You’re accountable for data leakage risk — but you don’t actually have visibility.

Sensitive data is moving every day through normal, authorised work:

Email

Personal cloud tools

File sharing

Legitimate access used at the wrong time

Most of it looks acceptable in isolation.

That's how risk builds quietly.

Why traditional DLP breaks down

Most DLP platforms generate more alerts than teams can realistically handle.

Security teams quickly face an impossible choice:

In practice, this leads to:

The result is worse than noise — it’s blind spots.

Coverage exists on paper.

Operational visibility disappears.

The hidden cost of alert overload

When teams can’t keep up:

Alerts stop being reviewed consistently

Risk decisions are made reactively

Leaders assume controls are working when they’re not

By the time something is clearly “bad,” the data is already gone.

The missing piece: business context

Most platforms operate in isolation from the business.

They don’t understand:

That knowledge sits with managers and teams, but it’s never used.

Without business context:

The reality of insider risk

The vast majority of data leakage isn’t malicious.

It’s caused by:

People under pressure
Convenience-driven workarounds
Staff just trying to get the job done

When detection rules are switched off, organisations lose the chance to:

Identify these behaviours early

Correct them proportionately

Educate staff before habits turn into incidents

Risk isn’t reduced. It’s simply unseen.

Why this problem persists

You can’t watch everyone all the time.
Privacy, trust, and regulation matter.
Push too hard and monitoring becomes unacceptable.
Pull back and risk goes unmanaged.

Most organisations are stuck in the middle — accountable, but uncertain.

What changes with ShadowSight

ShadowSight is typically delivered as a managed service.

That means:

Alert volume is controlled without switching off visibility

Business context is applied to behaviour

Routine activity is filtered out properly

Real risk is reviewed by experienced practitioners

Your teams aren’t overwhelmed.
Your controls stay on.
Your visibility improves.
And instead of just detecting risk, you can actually reduce it.

Understand what’s really happening — without drowning in alerts.
