Cybersecurity company Lookout Inc. today announced the launch of Lookout AI Visibility & Governance, a new mobile-native solution designed to provide organizations with the visibility needed to discover, govern and secure artificial intelligence adoption across their mobile ecosystem.

The new offering provides a missing layer of visibility that allows organizations to identify shadow AI activity on mobile devices, detect unauthorized agent behavior and enforce policy where traditional controls have no reach.

Lookout AI Visibility & Governance delivers a real-time view of an organization’s AI footprint by identifying sanctioned and unsanctioned AI use on mobile devices and, in doing so, exposes activity that Lookout says traditional endpoint and cloud-centric discovery tools cannot detect.

The solution, offered as part of Lookout’s mobile security platform, provides actionable, evidence-based visibility to enforce policy, reduce risk and maintain control over AI usage across the mobile domain.

“AI adoption is accelerating faster than most organizations can see or control, especially on mobile, where AI activity often operates outside traditional corporate boundaries and remains largely invisible,” said Chief Executive Jim Dolce. “With the launch of Lookout AI Visibility & Governance, we’re closing that gap, giving organizations the ability to see, understand and govern AI usage at the mobile layer, bringing mobile AI activity out of the shadows into full visibility and control.”

Key features and benefits include comprehensive AI app discovery and shadow AI visibility. Users can obtain a real-time inventory of all AI apps, whether they be sanctioned and unsanctioned, across corporate and bring-your-own devices, exposing hidden shadow AI and turning mobile risks into governed assets.

Agentic behavior monitoring continuously analyzes AI-driven behavior and maps permissions to ensure autonomous agents do not execute unauthorized workflows or access sensitive enterprise data. There’s also intelligent data guardrails and policy enforcement prevent sensitive data from reaching unsanctioned AI services with real-time controls that stop unauthorized access and exfiltration.

Lookout AI Visibility & Governance also offers users automated compliance alignment. The offering can generate audit-ready evidence aligned to the European Union’s Artificial Intelligence Act, the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology’s AI Risk Management Framework and the international standard ISO/IEC 42001 to deliver the traceability required for effective AI risk management and regulatory compliance.

Lookout says that the new solution acts as a strategic force multiplier across its mobile security platform, extending protection from the device to the AI activity occurring on it. It strengthens layered defense to secure not only devices and users but also the AI-driven interactions that operate on their behalf.
