How do companies evaluate the risks of unsanctioned extensions in collaborative work platforms?

Companies evaluate vulnerabilities introduced by unsanctioned extensions in collaborative work platforms by implementing risk assessments and security audits to identify potential weaknesses. They may use tools to scan for unauthorized extensions, monitor access and data flows, set up alerts for suspicious activity, educate employees on the risks of using unsanctioned extensions, and enforce policies to restrict the installation of such extensions. Regular security updates and patches are also crucial in addressing vulnerabilities and protecting the platform from potential threats.
