# Detecting Shadow IT Cloud Usage
## Overview
Shadow IT refers to unauthorized SaaS applications and cloud services used without IT approval. This skill analyzes proxy logs, DNS query logs, and firewall/netflow data to identify unauthorized cloud service usage, classify discovered domains against known SaaS categories, measure data transfer volumes, and flag high-risk services based on security posture and compliance requirements.
## When to Use
- When investigating security incidents that require detecting shadow it cloud usage
- When building detection rules or threat hunting queries for this domain
- When SOC analysts need structured procedures for this analysis type
- When validating security monitoring coverage for related attack techniques
