In case you missed the second webinar of our new Inside Netskope series—where Netskope experts show you how we protect our users, applications, and data using our own cloud-based architecture—a recording and recap of our recent session on how to Uncover Insights and Mitigate Risk with Netskope Advanced Analytics & Generative AI can be found below. Feel free to comment and continue the discussion!

Q: Are there any templates for allowing access to controlled AI tools like corporate Copilot and Copilot Designer while blocking outside AI tools?
A: We recommend taking the client and start to interact with the copilot to see if you're able to pick up some of those activities with the predefined connectors and potentially even developing a custom connector. We are currently working on the consumer version of the Copilot for O365 and then eventually the professional version.
Q: How can AI in Netskope help business to grow?
A: We can analyze the traffic we are seeing with GenAI which helps us to spawn user alerts and influence behavior. By being able to direct our users to appropriate sanctioned applications and provide guidelines, it helps business to grow by alleviating the burden of worry about "are my users accessing a GenAI they shouldn't, what's the CCI of this, does it meet certain data center requirements, etc.". Also, being able to interview your end users is helpful because there's sometimes a really good business justification for the GenAI tool within your organization.
Q: What are the recommended controls to handle AI?
A: Controls are dependent upon what your organization sets forth on acceptable use policies and how/what you would do with potential repercussions of using exfiltration data.
Q: We are integrating Microsoft 365 Copilot and would love to hear more about Netskope integrations in that space. Since we use Netskope for most of user data monitoring, it would be great to hear what we can take advantage of, especially in the space of MS Purview labeling (for sensitive content, where content can be encrypted using MS IRM set of technologies).
A: MS Purview in R111, “Netskope is now allowing customers to read MIP labels natively with this integration. Customers will be able to define “API Data Protection” policies to read labels and content from MIP encrypted and unencrypted documents.” Check out the resources below:
We are currently exploring Real-Time Policies and the detection of activities with O365 Copilot and O365 platform. I would anticipate the release of connectors for O365 Copilot consumer versions soon with professional or corporate versions to follow later.
Q: What other ways can I use Netskope to detect the use of Gen AI when a domain is not categorized as such?
A: We recommend analyzing traffic on a regular basis to determine usage patterns and end user behaviors. Given this information, we recommend submitting the domain or host in the tenant at Policies > Profiles > Web > URL Lookup. If you are developing an app or adding features to your product, please submit a CCI App update here.
Q: Will Netskope be releasing any update to the ToS/Use related to the use of AI Models?
A: Not at the moment. However, we do use our own data to determine the efficacy of ML for classifiers. This allows us to continuously reduce the false positives associated with the classifiers which greatly improves the platform as a whole.
Q: Is this Gen AI Risk Management report in the current library?
A: The AI Risk Management report is included in the community article.
Q: Is there a KB or instructions on how to configure monitoring of Microsoft Co-Pilot as well as configuring the MIP for DLP on sensitivity or labeling on documents accessed by Co-Pilot?
A: MS Purview in R111, “Netskope is now allowing customers to read MIP labels natively with this integration. Customers will be able to define “API Data Protection” policies to read labels and content from MIP encrypted and unencrypted documents.”
