Which two use cases would be considered examples of Shadow IT within an organization? (Choose two.)

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C, D

Shadow IT is the term for the unauthorized use of IT resources and functions by employees within an organization. It can include cloud services, software, and hardware that are not approved or managed by the IT department. Two use cases that would be considered examples of shadow IT within an organization are: an unsanctioned Microsoft 365 OneDrive account being used by a corporate user to upload sensitive data and an unsanctioned Google Drive account used by a corporate user to upload non-sensitive data. In both cases, the corporate user is using a personal cloud storage service that is not sanctioned by the organization to store work-related data. This can introduce security risks, such as data leakage, data loss, compliance violations, malware infections, etc. The IT department may not have visibility or control over these cloud services or the data stored in them.Reference:What is shadow IT? | CloudflareWhat is Shadow IT? | IBM

I see your point, Johna. Using sanctioned accounts for unauthorized purposes can still pose security risks.

I believe option A is also a form of Shadow IT, as it involves using a sanctioned account for non-sensitive data.

I agree with you, Kayleigh. Using unsanctioned accounts for sensitive data is a big risk.

Ha! That's a good point. I bet the exam writers are trying to catch us out with that one. They're probably sitting back and laughing at us right now.

Hold on, I'm not so sure about that. What about A? Isn't a sanctioned Salesforce account still considered Shadow IT if the data being uploaded is non-sensitive?

Hmm, I think C and D are the obvious choices here. Anything unsanctioned by the company is considered Shadow IT, right?

This exam question is so tricky! I'm not sure if I should even attempt it. Shadow IT is like the dark side of the force, you know?
