Shadow AI Discovery v2 WIP 2026-08

/shadow ai discovery/

The AI you can’t see is the AI you can’t govern.

Brutor discovers the AI in use across your organization — the tools, agents, and MCP servers nobody registered — and onboards as much of it as possible in one click. Less risk, less unmanaged spend, and an audit-ready AI inventory.

Ends in enforcement, not a report Keep your scanners — plug them in One inventory: built, bought, found
Discovery Integrations in the Brutor Admin Console — CycloneDX AI-BOM, Knostic AgentSonar, Snyk agent-scan and SafeDep vet adapters feeding the AI Asset Registry

Discovery Integrations in the Brutor Admin Console — output from the AI-discovery tools you already run lands in the AI Asset Registry as signed discovery events. No bespoke scanner required.

/why shadow ai discovery/

Three reasons to use Brutor Shadow AI Discovery.

Cut the risk

Shrink the unmonitored data path — unvetted tools and unregistered agents get found before they become incidents.

Spend less

Duplicate tools and unattributed API keys surface — and found AI becomes costed AI, in the same ledger as everything else.

Get audit-ready

Every compliance conversation starts with an AI inventory — and you can’t inventory what you haven’t found.

The Guide: Discovering Shadow AI Is Just the Beginning — best practices for bringing the AI you don’t yet see under control with Brutor AI.

/from found to governed/

From found to governed, in one click.

Brutor Shadow AI Discovery works out-of-band: lightweight collectors pick up traces of AI usage across your network and infrastructure, and adapters ingest the output of the AI-discovery scanners you already run. Every finding lands as a signed discovery event in the Brutor AI Asset Registry — the inventory of all your AI assets — marked as discovered. Collectors and adapters run continuously — or on the schedule you choose.

Discovery flow: scanners and collectors emit Ed25519-signed events into the AI Asset Registry as Discovered assets; one click onboards them into a governed AI System

Every asset in the registry carries its true state — GOVERNED  UNGOVERNED  DISCOVERED.

Here is where Brutor differs from discovery tools that end in a dashboard: a discovered asset carries a path into a governed AI System, not just a dot on a chart. One click starts the onboarding — Brutor records the decision and pre-fills (never invents) the gateway registration from what discovery already learned. The one change that matters happens in your deployment: point the workload at the gateway — a base URL and an API key. From the first routed request, budgets, guardrails, identity, and audit evidence apply, because your policies were already waiting at the resource-group level — and the registry only flips the asset to Governed when its traffic proves it. A config change and a redeploy, pre-filled — not a migration project. Not a magic click either; we’d distrust any tool that claimed one.

/why brutor/
  • Discovery that ends in enforcement — others hand you a report; Brutor hands you an onboard button.
  • Scanner-agnostic, evidence-grade — ingest the tools you already run, every event cryptographically signed.
  • One inventory for everything — the AI you build, the AI you buy, and the AI you just found.

Shadow AI Discovery is just a piece of the puzzle — learn how you can manage your AI Systems with Brutor AI.
