Unvetted third-party software often requires broad permissions, creating a silent backdoor for cybercriminals.
Be cautious: using free or inexpensive unvetted third-party software introduces significant enterprise risk.

Every application demanding broad access to your email or files is a potential entry point for unauthorized data exfiltration. Blue Kite conducts critical third-party software audits to eliminate these hidden, systemic vulnerabilities from your operational environment.
