What is BYOS (Bring Your Own Software)?
BYOS tracking monitors software introduced by employees outside official procurement processes, often through personal or department-level signups.
Why it Matters
Untracked apps pose financial, compliance, and security risks. Visibility into BYOS helps IT and procurement teams regain control over the full SaaS environment and reduce shadow IT.
Benefits
- Detects unsanctioned tools
- Enhances compliance and security
- Reduces shadow IT
- Flags apps for review or rationalization
