Netskope FAQ

Netskope is a premier native Security Cloud platform providing policy enforcement, threat protection, visibility and real time data for any access to an organisation’s private applications, web sites and cloud services. Netskope’s set of products centre around several key services:

  • Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB), an enforcement point that sits between users and cloud services
  • Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), an approach to securing the network and data in response to the shift away from traditional data centres
  • Private Access for Zero Trust Network Architecture, securely connects users to an organisation’s private applications in public clouds and data centres instead of traditional, broad network level access
  • Secure Web Gateway (SWG), a Next Generation proxy provided as a cloud service
  • Public Cloud Security, enables organisations to continuously assess and improve their Cloud Security Posture, combining real-time inline protection with API controls
  • Cloud Firewall, a cloud based Next Generation Firewall as a Service (FWaaS)

A Cloud Access Security Broker is a security policy enforcement point that is placed between users and cloud-based applications and services to apply enterprise security policies, and secure and control access to these cloud services. A CASB solution complements and improves upon native security functions of cloud applications and builds on the four pillars of Visibility, Compliance, Data Security and Threat Protection to secure access and mitigate inherent cloud service risks that would otherwise go unmanaged.

Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is an emerging cyber security concept first coined by Gartner in 2019. SASE is the convergence of network access services – both Internet and WAN and security services like CASB, FWaaS and Zero Trust, into a unified cloud native solution.

SASE brings together web security, cloud security, data and threat protection defenses, plus networking capabilities into a cloud ‘heavy edge’. SASE makes it possible to provide secure access regardless of where users, data, applications or devices are located.

In this evolving model, perimeter-based appliances and legacy solutions transition into fully integrated cloud microservices creating one platform with consolidated policies supported by a highly performant, extensible global network infrastructure.

Netskope accelerates an organisation’s digital transformation journey with a proven security platform that is cloud native, data centric. Netskope’s flexible and scalable platform enables comprehensive security to keep pace with the rapid growth of businesses.

The rapid adoption of cloud applications and services results in data going places where legacy security technology has limited or no visibility. Netskope’s approach to cloud security enables visibility and control of that data regardless of where it goes. Netskope can protect from accidental exposure of your legitimate data in the cloud, and critical business data going to unsanctioned cloud applications or personal, insecure devices.

Netskope continues to build one of the world’s largest and fastest security networks – enhancing and accelerating access to Cloud resources via a global network infrastructure, optimised for high availability, high capacity and low latency.

Other benefits include:

Real time threat protection: can detect and prevent cloud and web attacks such as phishing, malware, ransomware and malicious insiders.

Cost savings: Eliminates capital expenditure for on-premises infrastructure and leverages a scalable, predictable operational expenditure model due to its Security-as-a-Service delivery

Reduced complexity: Enables organisations to shift security staff from managing appliances to focusing on delivering policy-based security services. In addition, consolidated and converged technologies with unified policy enforcement simplify SecOps
