Hello fellow cyber security experts!

My company is currently in the process of acquiring ISO 27001 certification. We are using a compliance software, and while doing Vendor Discovery, we got a match on around 300 small apps (max 3 accounts each), where the account was created using the google workspace work email.

Accounts include: facebook, instagram, youtube, spotify, some free online PDF managers, some quick post or image editors etc.

How am I supposed to rank these? We do offer trainings for security best practices, but cannot really monitor 24/7 people and what they do with their laptop. In theory an employee could have uploaded a pdf report with sensitive data to freePDFEditor online or similar... Does that make the tool "high risk"?

Any wisdom on how to tackle situations like this, would be appreciated :)
