Hi Team I'm really happy to be part of this wonderfully community, my name is Simphiwe.We have many of our users whose Neskope gets disabled randomly and when this happens they lose access to a number of important applications within the organization. The only way to temporarily fix this is to restart the Netskope service or to completely restart the computer. However this is a short-time fix. I just want to know what are the main causes of Netskope getting disabled and how to fix this ? Thank you  

App connectors are a critical component of the Netskope secure access service edge (SASE) platform, offering visibility into user activities based on their interactions with cloud applications. These connectors monitor various types of user actions, such as uploads, downloads, and sharing events in apps like Google Drive and Box, by analyzing network traffic patterns. With this visibility, security administrators can then configure and enforce real-time policies to prevent malware, data theft and exfiltration.we’ve developed a patent-pending app activity monitoring system that leverages advanced machine learning algorithms to automatically identify significant anomalies in app event counts. Please read our latest blogpost for details: https://www.netskope.com/blog/proactive-app-connector-monitoring-with-machine-learning 

Just wondering whether any community members who are Docker users have been able to get Netskope working with it ?

The integration between Netskope CE CREV2 and CrowdStrike CNAPP (Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform) combines Netskope's ZTNA with CrowdStrike’s cloud workload protection capabilities to provide a seamless solution for securing cloud environments, particularly by enabling workload quarantine. Using this integration we can quarantine all the risky workloads via the Netskope CREv2The workload quarantine feature ensures that in the event of a security incident or detection of a compromised workload by CrowdStrike CNAPP, the affected instance or service is quickly isolated from Netskope Tenant for the users, limiting the spread of threats across the cloud environment. This capability helps in rapid incident containment and response. RequirementsCloud Exchange-5.1.0 Netskope Risk Exchange Plugin CrowdStrike Cloud Protection Plugin CrowdStrike CNAPP  Netskope Tenant ImplementationConfigure the Netskope Risk Exchange Plugin Configure the Entity Sources for the Netskope Risk Exchan

This article outlines a solution for automating VPN failover using an AWS Lambda function, triggered by an Amazon CloudWatch event rule. The function monitors IPsec tunnel status changes for VPN connections to the Netskope Point of Presence (PoP). The automation ensures seamless failover to alternative PoPs in case of VPN failure, enhancing network resilience.  Overview The solution deploys an AWS Lambda function that automatically responds to changes in VPN tunnel status for connections to the Netskope PoP. Triggered by an Amazon CloudWatch event rule, the function checks if both VPN tunnels to the Netskope PoP are down. If they are, the function scans all AWS Transit Gateway (TGW) route tables and replaces routes pointing to the downed VPN connections with static routes to a designated failover PoP.This solution can be deployed in any AWS region and integrates with the AWS Global Network, utilizing Transit Gateway Network Manager to monitor and manage VPN connections. Key Features: P

Hi all! It is supposed that Netskope can import the OUs and User Groups from GSuite user platform directly using SCIM but, I couldn't find the way to do it. In addition, all the documentation I find is related to SCIM integration with Azure AD and Okta. I've been looking for a way into GSuite Admin Console and there is nothing similar. Anyone here has had the same issue? Thanks!

Currently there is no ability to schedule a policy email notification for a specific time.   The time the report is sent is fixed on the back end.  Would be nice to have the ability to change to a specific time.

Hub - Spoke gateway - Dynamic Public IP ( Spokes-branchs )  Hello community, good afternoon.  I have a question regarding the sdwan borderless wan part of Netskope. Understanding a Hub-Spoke architecture Where I have one or a few SDWAN Gateway in Hub mode and other Spoke branches with their corresponding gateways. My doubt is the following. If I have Spoke/BranchOffice sites, where eventually there is a need for some other connection from the other branches to some particular resource of that branch, I would understand that it is not necessary that my Gateway - Spoke sdwan does not have static public IP, but dynamic either by 4G/5G or some high quality ADSL connection and / or public IP links Dynamics, for the Gateways / Spoke would not be critical to have static public IP where if in the case of the Hub if you have preferably static Public IP and / or port forwarding to the IP of the gateway-sdwan. Hub, but if it could allow and set up the tunnels and according to the policies would a

One of the advantages of exploiting a cloud service to host the attack infrastructure, is that the threat actors can use either a legitimate compromised account or create a new one specifically for their malicious purposes. According to researchers at Microsoft, this modus operandi has been used by APT33 (also known as “Peach Sandstorm”) - a threat actor believed to operate on behalf of the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC)  - in their latest campaign, tracked between April and July 2024 and targeting organizations in the education, satellite, communications equipment, oil and gas, as well as federal and state government sectors in the United States and the United Arab Emirates. This campaign is characterized by a really interesting attack chain: the threat actors used LinkedIn to gather intelligence on their targets. From there, they launched password-spraying attacks to break into their victims’ accounts and

Has anyone created any useful Splunk dashboards from the Netskope Splunk Add-on that they are willing to share with the community?

Hello,Is there a way in the tenant to identify on how a user has been enrolled (UPN vs IdP)? In preparation for mitigating Netskope’s enrolment vulnerability, we need to find a way to identify users/devices that are affected as they have been enrolled using UPN mode (we starting with UPN and switched to IdP for new subsidiaries). In addition, this might be a way to identify devices that should not be there (aka exploited the vulnerability).Thank you!Regards,Nadja

Hi, We want to integrate CrowdStrike for EDR with Netskope using the link- “https://docs.netskope.com/en/integrating-crowdstrike-for-edr/#integrating-crowdstrike-for-edr-1”As per the document I understand that Netskope pushes the malware hash file to CrowdStrike, endpoints are checked to see if that malware hash file exists. If so, Netskope retrieves the identity of the endpoints and captures the details in a Skope IT alert. If no endpoints have the malware hash file, Netskope publishes the Indicators of Compromise IOC into CrowdStrike’s Custom IOC repository.  But I have few questions here as- 1. When NS pushes malware hash file to CS, if there is any active detection occurs we will get alert on NS under remediation alert type. But will we get the detection alert on CS for the same? For this same scenario, when we are getting the remediation alert on NS, it will be block from NS. But will it be block from CS also and in this case will it be added under IOC of CS? 

I am using the SCIM API with Swagger to pull information down from our tenant but I could not see how to pull all members of a group. The Admin UI has no option to export group memberships so I figured the SCIM API could do this but I don't see how to get anything other than SCIM ID and External ID via the API.  Is there a way to do this via SCIM or if not, how can I obtain group memberships in a programmatic way? 

"How should we communicate security controls and changes to our users? How do other Netskope customers do it?" These are questions we hear a lot, and the answer often is, "It depends."Here are some key factors to consider:Impact on Daily Operations: Will the change affect users' daily activities? Access Restrictions: Will users lose access to something they previously had? Policy Flexibility: Is your default policy open or restrictive, and how will this change affect the user experience—positively or negatively?It’s important to strike a balance between inundating users with minor regular change announcements, and notifying them when an impactful change is incoming. Many small changes won’t need this level of awareness.However, when users have access to something one day and lose it the next without warning, it can lead to frustration and a flood of support tickets—neither of which you want!So, how does Netskope handle it?At Netskope (Customer Zero), we notify our users about security

I recently encountered the below mentioned issue and would like to have better understanding of the same.I have collected advanced debugging logs from the users system, where in the option of “Start” for outer capture was disabled, still I collected the logs and those were as expected.However when I tried collecting the same logs from the tenant for that user, I observed the logs were different and some of the captures which were present in the previously collected advanced debugging logs from the system were missing in the logs collected from the tenant.Attaching the screenshots for reference:Events triggered for the date and time : 2024/07/17 14:47:00.213Logs collected from the tenant :Advanced debugging logs collected from the device for the same time :Need to understand why the captured even for the same timestamp are different.

If you work with Security Architects, SOC Engineer, or a SOC Analyst, all of them will tell you one thing “Send me ‘ALL’ the logs!” because their ability to find threats or investigate incidents is reduced without the log data or if the required log data is dispersed in various log data stores. If your chosen partner for cloud is Microsoft, then they will also tell you one more thing “Send it to Microsoft Sentinel!” If you happen to be a person responsible to fetch these logs from Netskope then it’s okay to establish feeling where you think the whole world is working towards making your life difficult.

Hello,Driven by Netskope’s enrolment vulnerability, we want/need to move our Windows endpoints from UPN to IdP mode. Does anyone know if there is a way to use a script to change the existing configs of the already installed agents? Before we plan to uninstall and re-install all 10k agents, we would like to elaborate if there is another way by eg deleting/modifying an existing config file.Appreciate any feedback. Thanks,Nadja

The Netskope Client it password protected. Looking to see if any one has success with uninstaller scripts that will allow you to add those parameters to the scripts and do a clean uninstall
