Requirements  Transaction Streaming SKU    What is Threat Hunting?  Threat hunting is the process of using the scientific method to proactively and iteratively search through an organization's environment to identify threats that have evaded detection. One of the goals of threat hunting is to enrich and automate detection that is unique to an organization's environment. Additionally your team builds knowledge of your organization's environment, understanding the gaps and further enriching your security solutions. This document is to help you understand the basic process of threat hunting using data logged with Netskope. We have included an example of a threat hunt.    The Hunting Loop    Figure 1: The Hunting Loop   Hypothesis  A threat hunt starts with a hypothesis that should be realistic for your environment. We recommend reviewing research articles on the threats you want to hunt to assist with hypothesis generation and avoid hunti

Solution Overview   Windows Autopilot Overview   Traditionally IT administrators spend a lot of time on building and customizing OS images, compatibility testing with various device makes and models etc. Every device typically goes through a re-imaging process with additional pre and post validation to make sure it is ready for use in the field. This process implies major cost and time effort. Windows Autopilot is a collection of Microsoft technologies working in concert that help to simplify and streamline the bulk deployment, setup, and configuration of Windows 10/11 devices in organization to ensure they are provisioned and locked down according to corporate standards. Autopilot also can be used for device reset, repurpose and recovery.    The following diagram shows a process overview of a typical device procurement and onboarding lifecycle:   Windows Autopilot enables customers to: Recognize company owned devices and associate them with appropriate enrol

What is attack surface management?    Attack surface management (ASM) is the continued discovery, classification, and monitoring of an organization's external assets. It is crucial that teams leverage the hacker mindset to look for attack vectors into the organization when performing ASM in order to prioritize the most risk prone assets for remediation. To get the most out of an ASM program, teams should leverage tactics techniques and procedures (TTP) in use by threat actors. Not only is this good practice to develop the hacker mindset but also determine the hygiene of the current security implemented by the organization. Risk in ASM typically comes from three common areas which are vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and weak/default credentials. The goals of attack surface management are identifying and gauging the risk, and reducing the attack surface. Attack surface management aims to find what assets are being exposed by the applications, networks, and devices in your e

Introduction   I am super excited to announce that the Netskope security cloud can now be managed as code. "How is this possible?", you might ask. The answer is by using the newly released Terraform provider for Netskope. This has been in the works for some time now and is the first time our SSE platform has been integrated directly into an Infrastructure as Code tool. This will allow customers and partners to automate deployment of Netskope resources using Terraform. By taking a "Netskope as Code" strategy customers will be able to easily create, modify, and delete infrastructure inside of the platform. This first release has support for our ZTNA solution (Netskope Private Access or NPA) and includes resources and data sources for Private Access Publishers and Applications. Get ready to supercharge your NPA deployment by creating a simple, repeatable automated configuration.   What is "Infrastructure as Code" and why Terraform   Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is

  This article will cover how to configure Single-Sign-On (SSO) for the Netskope Cloud Exchange (CE) platform using Okta. This will allow you to manage administrator access to CE from purely within Okta, rather than configuring administrators on the platform manually. Cloud Exchange is different from the standard Netskope tenant you would have access to as a customer, and facilitates the exchange of information between your various security and operations platforms. For information on what Cloud Exchange is (including how to deploy it), please see here.   Create a new App Integration Log in to your Okta administrator console and from the left-side menubar, navigate to Applications > Applications.   Select Create App Integration. Select SAML 2.0 as the sign-in method and click Next. On the next screen, set the App name to be Netskope Cloud Exchange and provide an app logo if required. Click Next to proceed to the Configure SAML section.   Copy the Cloud Exc

CVE-2021-44228 (Log4Shell or LogJam) is a recently discovered zero-day vulnerability in the ubiquitous Apache Log4j Java-based logging library. It was reported by the Alibaba Cloud Security team as an unauthenticated RCE vulnerability in Log4j 2.0-beta9 up to 2.14.1 and could allow a complete system takeover on vulnerable systems. The bug has received the maximum CVSS score of 10, reflecting its importance and ease of exploitation.    This logging library is widely used in enterprise applications from Apple, Twitter, Amazon, Tesla, CloudFlare, and products including Apache Struts2, Apache Solr, Apache Druid, and Apache Flink for its rich feature set and ability to flexibly record log information. Even Ghidra, a popular reverse engineering tool from NSA, is vulnerable to this bug. Attackers can use the feature that is used to write error logs to construct special data request packets through this vulnerability and ultimately trigger the remote code execution.   Threat act

Check out our latest blog series on AWS Best Practices on Logging!   Although CloudTrail is a well-trodden subject for AWS Security, there were still a few interesting findings among a slice of our customer base:   Enable VPC flow logs: 81% of VPCs do not have VPC flow logging enabled, which will hinder incident response and investigations. Encrypt CloudTrail logs at rest: 91% of CloudTrail logs are not encrypted at rest. Encryption at rest supports data compliance controls and is easy to do. Ensure S3 bucket access logging is enabled for CloudTrail buckets: 41% of CloudTrail buckets do not have server access logging enabled. Logging should be enabled for all CloudTrail S3 buckets. Ensure CloudTrail logs are integrated with CloudWatch or a SIEM: 54% of CloudTrails are not integrated with CloudWatch. These should be reviewed to ensure they are integrated with a production log search service or SIEM.   If your AWS accounts fall into these c
