Enterprises Adopt Low-Code To Control Shadow AI

Executives are confronting widespread "Shadow AI"—employees using unsanctioned generative-AI tools and inputting sensitive corporate data, despite 97% of firms having restrictive policies, according to a Cisco report. Companies face IP and compliance risks under GDPR and CCPA and struggle to scale pilots due to integration and talent gaps. Many are adopting low-code platforms as governed on-ramps, enabling controlled model access, audit trails, and faster production deployments, Gartner forecasts over 75% low-code adoption by 2026.
