Frequently asked questions
What exactly does the Discovery Tool find, and is it more than just another application scanner?
The SailPoint Discovery Tool offers comprehensive visibility that goes beyond traditional scanning. It is designed to uncover hidden risks by:
- Discovering Unmanaged Applications: Identifying unsanctioned SaaS applications and custom tools that are in use outside of your formal IT and SSO environment.
- Exposing Shadow AI: Analyzing employee use of public generative AI tools (e.g.: Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, etc.), showing you who is using them, with what account (e.g.: personal accounts), and how often.
- Monitoring Data Uploads: Flagging potentially sensitive data to public AI platforms, helping to prevent data leakage.
How is this tool deployed, and will it impact our network or employee productivity?
Deployment is designed to be lightweight and non-intrusive by deploying individually or via standard MDM tools. It is a browser-based solution that does not require any heavy agents, network infrastructure changes, or proxies.
Will the trial disrupt our users by blocking access to applications they need?
No. Its primary purpose is to provide you with a clear picture of your environment without interfering with employee workflows. It gives you an actionable inventory of risk so you can make informed decisions.
