Acceptance criteria
Use approved SaaS/API methods where no endpoint agent can be installed.
Why it matters
Contractors and personal devices still reach corporate AI tenants, and some will never run an agent.
How to verify
The vendor shows and documents the coverage method for an unmanaged device in your environment.
OWASP adoption context
Shadow, vendor-embedded and platform-integrated use may occur without a managed endpoint; network or service-side visibility depends on the available architecture.
Framework mappings
Approved network, remote-MCP and SaaS/API observations provide network or service-monitoring inputs where an endpoint agent cannot run. They do not establish equivalent visibility into all device activity.
Alternative collection methods contribute to the AI operation-monitoring arrangement for unmanaged endpoints. Its scope, gaps and operating process still need to be defined.
Off-endpoint telemetry supplies otherwise missing evidence for security monitoring within the buyer’s boundary. Validate coverage gaps, analysis and review rather than assuming equivalent visibility. These methods do not harden the endpoint.
