      <title>Enterprise IT Is Worried About NanoClaw. That&apos;s Exactly What the Founders Wanted.</title>
      <link>https://argusreport.dev/news/nanoclaw-shadow-ai/</link>
      <description>Security analysts are flagging NanoClaw as a shadow AI risk — employees installing it without IT approval. The founders built NanoClaw because OpenClaw had no security at all. The auditable codebase is the point.</description>
