**OCTOBER =C2=A02025**

**Matt Lombardo**

Editor

Happy Cybersecurity Awareness Month, everybody! I hope everyone here is sta=
ying aware to celebrate. Let=E2=80=99s dive in.


=F0=9F=94=90 Because we appreciate you guys SSO much, let=E2=80=99s start w=
ith a quick survival guide for managing single sign-on.=C2=A0


=F0=9F=95=B5=EF=B8=8F Then we=E2=80=99ll turn to the game afoot in so many =
organizations today: the emergence of shadow AI as the new shadow IT.

=F0=9F=94=90 Your Single Sign-On Survival Guide
------------------------------------


Should you build your SSO setup around an identity provider, or just use th=
e SSO features that come baked into your existing platforms? Good question!


It's tempting to take the path of least resistance. Google Workspace and Mi=
crosoft 365 both offer SSO capabilities out of the box. They're already con=
figured, your users are already familiar with them, and hey, let=E2=80=99s =
be honest. You've got enough on your plate without adding another vendor to=
 manage.=C2=A0


But a lot of IT teams discover this part the hard way: those built-in solut=
ions only get you so far. Platform SSO works great... until it doesn't.


Google and Microsoft can absolutely handle authentication for apps that pla=
y nice with their ecosystems. Problem is, not every app in your stack lives=
 in that world. Your HR platform might authenticate through Okta. Your desi=
gn team swears by Adobe, which has its own identity system. Your legacy CRM=
 still uses basic username/password auth. Suddenly you're back to managing =
multiple authentication systems.


A dedicated IdP, on the other hand, gives you the control tower. These plat=
forms are built specifically to handle authentication across your entire ap=
plication ecosystem, regardless of vendor. You=E2=80=99re looking at:


-=20

**Universal protocol support:**=C2=A0They speak SAML, OAuth, OIDC, and what=
ever else your apps throw at them


-=20

**Thousands of pre-built integrations:**=C2=A0No custom configuration gymna=
stics for common SaaS tools


-=20

**Centralized policy enforcement:**=C2=A0Set MFA requirements, password pol=
icies, and access rules once=E2=80=94they apply everywhere


-=20

**True unified provisioning:**=C2=A0Add a user in one place, grant them acc=
ess to everything they need automatically


The trade-off is adding another system to maintain. But for most organizati=
ons, especially those using a wide range of SaaS applications, a dedicated =
IdP is one of the smoother paths to actually achieving single sign-on acros=
s the board.


Start by mapping out every application your company uses and how they curre=
ntly handle authentication.=C2=A0


**Path A:**=C2=A0If you're heavily invested in one ecosystem (all Google or=
 all Microsoft) and your apps live primarily in that world, platform SSO mi=
ght work.


**Path B:**=C2=A0But if you're managing a heterogeneous environment with ap=
ps across multiple vendors, you need a dedicated IdP that can wrangle them =
all into submission.

=E2=9A=A0=EF=B8=8F Breach of the week
---------------------


**What to know**: =F0=9F=A4=96 "ForcedLeak" just proved that AI agents are =
cross-site scripting's evil twin. This critical vulnerability (CVSS 9.4) in=
 Salesforce Agentforce let attackers embed malicious instructions into Web-=
to-Lead forms that sit dormant until an employee innocently asks the AI age=
nt to process that lead data=E2=80=A6 at which point it happily exfiltrates=
 your entire CRM to an attacker-controlled domain. Good stuff.


**What to do**: Salesforce patched this by enforcing Trusted URL allowlists=
, so apply those updates immediately if you're running Agentforce with Web-=
to-Lead enabled. Then audit your existing lead data for suspicious submissi=
ons with weird formatting or instructions and implement strict input valida=
tion on all user-controlled fields.

=F0=9F=A4=96 Shadow AI is the New Shadow IT
--------------------------------


Shadow IT used to mean someone buying Dropbox without asking. Now it's your=
 entire workforce quietly feeding company data into ChatGPT because it help=
s them write better emails. Welcome to Shadow AI, where the tools are free,=
 the adoption is instant, and the compliance implications make your securit=
y team break out in hives.


JR Lam, Director of IT at Snap (i.e., Snapchat), sees this playing out in r=
eal time: "The tools are so easy to use and provide instant value. People a=
re downloading ChatGPT or whatever their favorite tool is, and they're usin=
g it to help write docs or write code. It's actually hard to control the sp=
rawl."


**The problem isn't that your employees are being reckless. They're being p=
roductive.**=C2=A0They found a tool that makes their work easier, and your =
approval process takes three weeks. Of course they went rogue.


Cracking down won=E2=80=99t get you very far. What actually changes behavio=
r, according to Lam, is resetting expectations around partnership.


"Even though there's something cool and shiny out there that you want, stil=
l have a conversation with us. Because at some point, you're gonna need sec=
urity and legal review. Do you wanna do that on your own? Or do you want to=
 hook up with us and we can walk through it together?"


His key is framing this as a collaborative initiative. Partner with us and =
we'll help you get what you need faster and safer than going it alone.


**Your move:**=C2=A0Map where Shadow AI is already happening. Talk to depar=
tment heads about what tools they're seeing. Then build a fast-track approv=
al process for AI tools that actually competes with the "just download it" =
option. Because if your process is significantly slower than going rogue, y=
ou've already lost.

 week. And if you have a question you=E2=80=99d like us to answer,=C2=A0*[*=
