A Market Shift Toward Governance: Enterprise Leaders Cite Lack of Governance as a Top Concern
Article content
The new launch comes as enterprises confront widespread governance gaps in ServiceNow operations. xtype’s 2025 State of ServiceNow Operations Report revealed that inconsistent governance practices remain a top concern among enterprise leaders navigating regulatory pressure and security threats. The research found that 30% of companies restrict admin privileges to development instances only, and – alarmingly – 16% dangerously allow full admin rights across all environments—a ticking time bomb for security and compliance.
Article content
“Most enterprises constantly worry about their ServiceNow environments—who changed what, when, and why,” said Ron Gidron, CEO of xtype. “xtype removes governance as a bottleneck, replacing fragmented oversight with a native control plane that empowers businesses to innovate quickly and fearlessly without compromising compliance.”
