Shadow AI Is a Governance Problem, Not a Security One

Ungoverned tools and agents are already inside your organisation. Prohibition only hides them. Visibility and a record you can prove beat a ban every time.

Banning ungoverned AI tools and agents does not remove them, it just removes your visibility into them. The answer is not prohibition but a signed, hash-chained, offline-verifiable record of what every AI action actually did, owned by you and not the vendor.
