SaaS data governance
Rogue AI, shadow IT, and data governance, solved
Your firewall shows thousands of applications and tells you nothing useful. Lavawall® reviews email metadata against a curated list of 1,130+ SaaS applications to show how many people, and exactly who, use each service. Mark the approved ones, and the unauthorized tools holding company data stand out at once.

Find who is using what
Data governance is out of reach when your firewall shows thousands of different applications and no way to tell which ones matter. Lavawall® takes a different route. It reviews email metadata against a carefully curated list of over 1,130 Software-as-a-Service applications, which limits false positives and produces a clean, named picture of the services actually in use.
The result is not a raw log of traffic but an answer to the questions that govern data: which SaaS tools are in the environment, how many people use each one, and exactly who. That is the difference between noise and a decision you can defend.
What it gives you
Named users per service
For each SaaS application, see how many people use it and exactly who, so you can talk to the right person instead of guessing.
A curated app list
Matching against over 1,130 known SaaS applications keeps false positives down, so the list you act on is real rather than firewall noise.
Authorized designation
Mark the applications you approve, and the unauthorized alternatives stand out immediately for review, blocking, or governance.
Category search
Search by category to review every AI tool, every file-sharing service, or every messaging app in use in one pass.
Rogue AI visibility
Unsanctioned AI tools are exactly what the discovery surfaces, so shadow AI stops being an unknown and becomes a managed list.
Shadow IT under control
Every shadow SaaS service is named and attributed, so you can sanction it, block it, or bring it under a proper agreement.
Why it matters
Every unsanctioned SaaS account is a place company data can sit outside your control, and every unsanctioned AI tool is a place it can leak into a training set. Governance depends on knowing what is in use and by whom, and a firewall's undifferentiated list of thousands of applications cannot give you that. By naming the services and the people behind them, Lavawall® turns an impossible task into a manageable one for MSPs and lean IT teams alike.
Frequently asked
- How does Lavawall® find SaaS use without an agent in every browser?
- It reviews email metadata against a carefully curated list of over 1,130 known SaaS applications. That approach limits false positives and tells you not just how many people use a service, but exactly who, without scraping browsing history from every device.
- Why is my firewall's application list not enough for governance?
- A firewall shows thousands of different applications with no sense of which ones hold company data or who actually signed up. That noise makes real governance impossible. Lavawall® turns it into a named, prioritized picture you can act on.
- Can I mark which applications are approved?
- Yes. You can designate certain applications as authorized, which makes the unauthorized alternatives stand out immediately. You can also search by category, so reviewing every AI tool or every file-sharing service in use is straightforward.
- Does this help with rogue AI and shadow IT?
- Yes. Unsanctioned AI tools and shadow SaaS are exactly what the discovery surfaces, which services are in use and by whom, so you can sanction, block, or bring each one under governance.
