Case Study: Drata achieves scalable SaaS and AI governance with Nudge Security

Drata uncovers 20% more apps with Nudge Security

Drata, a company providing a trust management platform, faced the challenge of governing SaaS and AI tool sprawl as it grew to over 700 employees with only a 5-person IT team. Their previous manual processes for discovering shadow IT were inefficient, leaving significant visibility gaps into which apps employees were using and creating security risks. They turned to Nudge Security for a solution.

By implementing Nudge Security, Drata automated the discovery of shadow IT and used Slack-based nudges to engage employees directly. This solution delivered significant results: they discovered 20% more apps than with their previous tool and achieved a 60-70% employee response rate to automated nudges. Nudge Security provided full visibility into OAuth grants and AI usage, enabling the lean IT team to effectively govern tool sprawl without adding headcount.
