Shadow-IT Risk Scoring: Escalate High-Sensitivity Apps to On-Call Security

Scores each app in the review queue by data sensitivity, user reach, and spend, then pages on-call security via PagerDuty for high-risk apps while leaving low-risk ones…

How it runs

The automated pipeline, trigger to output.

  • TriggerSchedule scans unscored Monday cardsmonday.com
  • LogicCompute weighted risk score per app
  • LogicBranch high-risk vs standard against threshold
  • ActionPage on-call security in PagerDuty for high-risk appsPagerDutyPagerDuty
  • ActionUpdate each card with score and tier in Mondaymonday.com
  • OutputPost tier summary + incident links to SlackSlack

What it does

Not every unsanctioned app deserves the same urgency. This workflow reads cards in the review queue, computes a risk score from data sensitivity, number of users, and monthly spend, and branches: high-risk apps page on-call security immediately; everything else stays in the routine queue with its score attached.

When to use it

Use it once cards have owner context, so triage is driven by risk instead of discovery order. It keeps a finance tool with two users from drowning out a file-sharing app touching customer PII.

How it works

  1. 1A schedule scans the Monday queue for cards in the "Scored?" state of no.
  2. 2For each card a logic step computes a weighted risk score from sensitivity, user count, and spend fields.
  3. 3A branch splits cards into high-risk and standard tiers against a threshold.
  4. 4High-risk cards trigger a PagerDuty incident routed to on-call security with the app details.
  5. 5Every scored card is updated in Monday with its numeric score and tier.
  6. 6A Slack message summarizes the tier counts and links any incidents raised.

Set it up

  2. 2
    Connect PagerDutyIncidents, on-call, escalations.
  3. 3
    Connect SlackChannels, DMs, threads, mentions.
  4. 4
    Set each agent's modelWe leave models unset so you pick the tier — fast + cheap, or top-quality.
  5. 5
    Tune it to your dataEdit the prompts, filters, and field mappings so it matches how your team works.
  6. 6
