AI Sprawl

AI sprawl is the uncontrolled growth of AI applications, agents, coding assistants, embedded AI, MCP servers, AI agent skills, models, and third-party AI tools across the enterprise. As AI adoption expands without centralized visibility and governance, organizations can lose track of what AI is being used, who owns it, what data and systems it can access, and which risks it introduces. Managing AI sprawl requires continuous discovery, a complete AI inventory, risk classification, and consistent policy enforcement.
