Introduction In my previous post I introduced the Netskope Provider for Terraform and showed you how it can be used to deploy publishers and applications inside of a Netskope tenant. While I think this capability on it's own is extremely exciting, I know we can do better. When looking at creating automation for Netskope, our goal was always to ensure a new publisher including the underlying infrastructure could be managed in the same configuration. In fact this concept is one of the primary reasons that we choose to use Terraform as our initial entry into Infrastructure as Code(IaC). In this post I will expand upon what we introduced previously by walking you through how to use the Terraform Module for automating Netskope Publishers running in Amazon EC2. This should be fun! What is a module? For those that are new to Terraform let me start by explaining what a module is. The definition of a module is something along the lines of 1 or more .tf configuration files i

Feel free to comment and continue the discussion! 📽 Watch on-demand 🍿 Q: Can a client be flagged as stolen via API?A: The client cannot be directly flagged as stolen via API, but you can use APIs to move users or devices between groups. This will have to be done within the Groups section and not with the client directly. Q: How to setup monitoring and tracking of stolen devices? Also, can we pinpoint the location of the lost/stolen device?A: If the device comes back online and connects back to the tenant, we can get all of the location data (wifi connected to, geographic location, etc.). Regarding how to setup monitoring and tracking, the presentation covers quite a few use

Overview Forward Proxy Authentication (FPA) ensures secure access to cloud applications by requiring SAML-based authentication via an intermediary server that allows organizations to enforce granular authentication policies. Netskope’s FPA allows integration of multiple Identity Providers (IdPs) based on criteria like access methods (IPsec, GRE, Cloud Explicit Proxy, NS Client Enrollment) and network location, enabling flexible and secure user authentication management. Organizations can maintain existing SAML setups while utilizing Netskope’s enhanced authentication features, supporting multiple concurrent IdPs to match specific conditions for robust security and control.

Recently I stumbled upon an interesting campaign carried out by a threat actor dubbed Dark Pink and characterized by the exploitation of a legitimate cloud service, GitHub, to host the malicious payload. GitHub is a well-known service, categorized as "Development Tools" and "Technology" within the Next Gen SWG, and for which a dedicated connector allows to enforce granular security policies in terms of adaptive access control, DLP and threat protection. However, it is common for threat actors to abuse even less-known cloud services for malicious purposes such as malware distribution, command and control and data exfiltration, and the above campaign is no exception. As a matter of fact in the above mentioned case, the attackers exploited an additional less-known cloud service, textbin[.]net, to deliver the malicious payload. Netskope customers are protected out-of-the-box from the malicious exploitation of textbin[.]net as this service is already classified as "Secur
Netskope Client & Managed DevicesNetskope offers multiple steering mechanisms and the Netskope Client is the most recommended option due to its operating nature and the available feature list. The Netskope Client is a lightweight application which can be installed on a managed device and it can be used to steer traffic from the device to Netskope Security Cloud. It provides real-time visibility of the managed devices accessing the cloud and web from any location. The Client uses Forward Proxy Steering mechanism where the Client creates an SSL tunnel from the end device and terminates it at the Netskope forward proxy in the Cloud.So when the mode of steering is Netskope Client, all managed devices are expected to have the Netskope Client installed. In the context of this blog, a device is classified as managed if it has the Netskope Client installed. In this post, let us discuss the possible settings and changes which can be made in the Netskope tenant to accommodate a Lost/Stolen m

Feel free to comment and continue the discussion! 📽 Watch on-demand 🍿 Q: Is advanced DLP techniques a new licensing?A: Exact Data Match and Fingerprinting are both included in the Advanced DLP license, so you only need ADLP to use these features. Q: Can you share some of the most prevalent DLP use cases that you've encountered? This will help us close any gaps that we may have overlooked.A: DLP policies are rarely a "set and forget". It's always a continuous learning and adjusting as our technology adjusts, as document formatting changes, etc. The only consistent is change, so we always go back and tune them as needed. Common use cases for Inline DLP include:1.) Block encrypted zip files with
Background Q. How do you enforce Netskope Client adherence without impacting SAML flows after authentication?A. Netskope Client Enforcement. Netskope Client Enforcement is used to “enforce” the compliance of having a Netskope client enabled and connected to a tenant for accessing SaaS applications using Identity Providers (IdP) such as Okta. This includes IdP or Service Provider initiated connections, i.e. logging into Okta to access a SaaS application or logging into the SaaS application directly. Netskope Client Enforcement should be differentiated from other methods of steering real-time traffic to the Netskope tenant for the processing of policies; policies such as Next-Generation Software Web Gateway (NG-SWG), Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Netskope Private Access (NPA), User Enhanced Behavior Analytics (UEBA), Cloud FireWall (CFW), and so on, all of which are designed to protect an organization. Netskope Client Enforcement also enables end users to protect corporate resources th
