Hello All,I'm hoping someone can help me. I am just trying to find out if Netskope has a language pack (Spanish, French, etc...) or the capability to detect DLP incidents in various languages, similar to how Symantec/Broadcom can. If so, can someone point me in the right direction of the setting in the tool? If not, can someone tell me if this capability is on the Netskope roadmap for the future? Thanks in advance! 

Hi Team, I have a problem with the android client:if I turn off the phone and turn it back on the NS client does not activate automatically but it is necessary to click on the application to start the VPN profile. Is it expected behavior? Thanks,Nicola

Installation on cell phones of Netskope client ( IOS and Android ) Hello community, good afternoon: A question, can you support me with the following points please, thank you for your time. Android --For the installation of the Netskope client, on Android phones is completely transparent ? that is to say you install the application, you accept that the VPN profile is generated and everything is transparent for the blocking of websites on the cell phone is executed ? or you must manually install a certificate ? if you have to install it from where you download ? or should be completely transparent to complete the installation process and is ready for use, once connected ? IOS--For the installation of the Netskope client, in IOS cell phones it is totally transparent ? that is to say you install the application, you accept that the VPN profile is generated and everything is transparent so that the blocking of cell phone websites is executed ? or you must manually insta

Netskope Client iOS and Android Apps  Hello community, how is everything going ? As always, thanks for the collaboration and good vibes.I have some issues with a couple of apps. 1.-Whatsapp App:Whatsapp App from IOS and Android, I performed the installation of the client, profile, etc all good all operating correctly for both IOS and Android. By Netskope Whatsapp is not an app qualified as certificate pinning at least not by default or suggested to add.The issue arises in the case of sending images, chats and messages, links all OK in both cases IOS and Android, the problem arises with sending files and images, when you try does not allow it. There is no blocking or impediment at the level of policies, permissive policies are generated to the APP and URLs, but the issue remained the same. Reviewing the domains in the CCI I noticed the domains whatsapp.com and whatsapp.net. When generating an exception at Steering level for the domain whatsapp.com the issue remained total

As for today NPA on NSClient doesn’t capture DNS requests sent over TCP 53 unless “Publisher DNS” is configured in the Private Application. Netskope is aware of this limitation and we are working to support it in the future.This means that for the time being for Private Applications that are not configured to use “Publisher DNS”, if the initial DNS resolution is performed over TCP 53, NPA will bypass the DNS resolution resulting on the NPA Application to fail to work. Despite the general recommendation is to avoid enabling/using DNS over TCP (TCP 53), this often depends on the DNS resolver, and unfortunately certain applications rely on their own DNS resolvers instead of the OS one. Recently we verified that Microsoft Edge uses an embedded DNS resolver that, even when configured not to use secure DNS (DNS over HTTPS), it still tries to use DNS over TCP if possible, breaking NPA. In order to ensure Microsoft Edge will use the OS DNS resolver it’s possible to configure locally or th

Ping Identity’s PingOne platform provides the ability to define a SAML-compatible application that can be used for granting access to the Netskope Admin Console. This guide will walk you through the steps for creating a custom application to meet this use case.   Ping does not provide a pre-built application for SAML SSO - a custom application is required Ping One does not support SCIM for User and Group provisioning - you will need Ping Federate with the SCIM SaaS Provisioner integration.   Instructions Follow the below steps to create the custom SAML integration. The high-level process is to a) define a custom attribute that will contain the Netskope Admin Role; b) create the custom SAML application; and c) configure the Netskope tenant for SSO with Ping One. Login to the Ping console Click on your target Environment     Expand Identities and click on Attributes Click the Plus sign to add a new attribute Choose Declared as the Attribute Type and click Nex

Hello everyone, My organization currently uses MIP to manually apply labels to Office files. We are looking to start using Netskope API Data Protection to automatically apply labels to files in SharePoint that contain sensitive data but I have a couple challenges I am not sure how to handle.  1. Microsoft Information Protection by default will not override any manual labels applied or override any label with a higher priority. We would like to keep this capability when using Netskope to apply labels but I cannot find any way to accomplish this.  2. We would like to build automated workflows to notify users when a file they own has had it's label upgraded because it contains sensitive data. This works great the first time the label is applied but a DLP alert will occur every single time the file is edited even if the file already has the upgraded label. I think a potential solution to challenge 1 would be to look for the manual label attribute in the files

Netskope Next Gen SWG helps organizations take back control over user->cloud activity that firewalls either miss or can't understand.  Cloud Firewall complements Next Gen SWG to address the non-web apps. Check out our new video to explain what a Cloud Firewall does, and let me know if you have any questions   https://community.netskope.com/t5/Video-Library/Introduction-to-Netskope-Cloud-Firewall/ba-p/4829  

I'm looking for a way to block file uploads using Telegram web. As Netskope is unable to detect "Uploads", it is not able to block uploads.  I tried blocking "Downloads" as this was an activity registered, when I tested, it failed.

netskope 102 is not getting uninstalled from the machine nor with the cleaner.

Just to check how Netskope is categorizing the URL's Malicious? just want to understand backend Technology and the process around it. Are you using any third-party Intelligence  or own AI/ML technologies.

Has anybody else observed latency and loading issues with Google Docs for Mac/Chrome users who are accessing them via the Netskope Client via the SWG? We're seeing sporadic behavior where documents shared with users will take 3-7 minutes to load, comments will fail to post, and sometimes pages just age out. This is not isolated to a specific region or POP, but disabling the Netskope client immediately resolves the issue.  It's become enough of a problem that we are considering putting in an ssl decryption or steering exception for Google Docs. This behavior will manifest for several hours, go away, and then reappear. Just curious if anyone else has seen it and/or has any suggestions on any potential fixes. 

Multi-user in non-AD environments - Users in Google and Okta Hello, good afternoon, I hope all is well. I have the following question. In an environment where you have users with Okta and others from Gmail, for user accounts, how would you do in environments where you do not have Active Directory for multi-user workstations ? I mean example: We have approx 30 workstations shared, by 3 or 4 people, where different people login to that workstation in different work shifts, with different local account on those workstations.So these machines use local accounts but I need to differentiate the access privileges of each of those 4 people/accounts to different access level for Netskope policies. How do I use multi-user or Multi-User Mode in this kind of environment? Is it possible to do it IDP-like with Okta accounts as with Google Workspace accounts ? Thank you for your time and your collaboration Best regards

Synchronize users from Google Apps/Workspace and Okta for user/group provisioning and Admin Console SSO Hello good afternoon, thank you for your support, for your collaboration and for your valuable time.Is it possible to synchronize users/groups from Google Apps/Workspace accounts ? in order to provision user/groups for policy management ? Can I synchronize users from Okta and users from Google Apps/Workspace at the same time?Is it possible to use SSO for the use of Google Apps/Workspace user credentials for the Tenant Admin Console? Thanks for your time, good vibes and your collaboration. I remain attentive Best regards

Hi team, I have a doubt whenever i tried to understand i get stucked and got confused in that.Correct me as per my understanding.The sanctioned application are those who only manages by our organization like o365, Gsuite salesforce who having a Admin privileges.Unsanctioned apps are those who not control by our organization like zippyshare anydesk pinterest facebook whatsapp etc.Also i get confused over managed and unmanaged application is that the managed apps are sanctioned apps and unmanaged are unsanctioned apps.For example Sanctioned apps are those who used by dialy bases on organiztion like some org used Gsuite and chatgpt again gsuite i sanctioned and chatgpt is unmanaged apps but the used both one for mailing and other is for info learning. on the second scenerio same org the unsantioned apps are o365 coz they are using gsuite on org. Please help me with this confusion with user example.

Hi I am facing issue in my laptop having the Re-authentication for Private Apps feature enabled every 24 hours. Unfortunately there is no re-auth pop-up coming when these 24 hours expires. I have no indication from the Client whether I need to re-auth now to access the Private Applications. This is hindering my day to day work. I have also checked it with my other colleagues and facing similar issue.  The documentation says that "If the interval expires, the Netskope Client prompts the IdP sign-in window for re-authentication. If the grace period expires, the Netskope Client disconnects from Netskope Private Access" which is not happening. 

Hi everyone,I'm currently looking into possibilities that Netskope offers us to depreciate our current VPN solution. One of them being the Windows deployment via Always on VPN, I figured that the Pre-Logon NPA might come in handy. Unfortunately, I couldn't find anything regarding this in the docs nor the community forum.I'd greatly appreciate any help.Best regards

Browsers with Zero-Day Vulnerabilities ? What am I talking about you might think -   Well, it happened with Chrome recently -  for the third time this year - CVE-2023-3079  released earlier this month affects Google Chrome prior to 114.0.5735.110 by allowing a remote attacker to potentially exploit heap corruption via a crafted HTML page. (Chromium security severity: High)    Sounds serious? Oh you bet - a CVSS Base Score: 8.8 HIGH is not something I'd want to ignore - NIST metrics below indicating a low level attack complexity is all you need to know here to ensure your fleet gets updated ASAP.       Where I'm getting at is that monitoring versions of critical pieces of software like your users browsers is very important. The question becomes, how? Of course, most admins may rely on a software deployment tool to track this - JAMF, SCCM etc. But did you know that Netskope, since it is widely used as a NG-SWG/CASB 'inline

Managing security group configurations and maintaining tight control over organization relationships are critical factors in safeguarding Workday deployments from potential security breaches. Organizations need a comprehensive solution that not only enables them to manage user access efficiently but also empowers them to identify and address security compromising anomalies in their configuration. Among her many other talents, the Netskope SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM) can help system administrators streamline security group management and detect policy violations within Workday deployments. With this article, we'll present a few practical recipes you can deploy with Netskope SSPM to monitor and harden your Workday deployment.   Unlike other solutions on the market, Netskope's approach is based on building an up-to-date model of the target systems as accurately as possible. We provide our administrators complete visibility to this model and the tools to navigate and

I am creating a DLP rule where I place the Post activity and the Block activity but it does not perform the action that is allowed, on the contrary if I select Teams there it does block the same policy.

Context: You have some users uploading sensitive data to Github. These smart users are avoiding detection by using non-text formats e.g. XLSX or docx. How to get alerted for binary commits on Github? Solution: Netskope next-gen Github API can detect and alert when a binary file is committed to Github. Create a very simple DLP rule that detects keywords for "Binary files". Call that into a profile and a Github ongoing policy. That's all that is needed. Here are the required screenshots showing how to create a DLP rule using custom entity with case insensitive keyword.  

Hi, I set up a new contingency publisher for the priv app, ran troublesshoint on the tool and everything is fine, no problems.But I can't access priv app,ran a curl , and got an http 500 return.We are not using DNS in the browser.Has anyone ever experienced this ? Or do you have an idea why?

Hey,Can anyone tell me if there is any limitation on the use of the NPA, number of users... traffic support.For a few days I have been experiencing a slowdown problem in the app and web after adding more users to the NPA.

As the AI wars heat up, Google is stepping up its game against OpenAI with the release of Bard. Google originally (early 2023) made it difficult for the average user to play around with Bard by introducing an invitation based system resulting in waitlists, again this was earlier this year when ChatGPT rocketed into the mainstream consciousness, but as it stands today, most, if not all Google account holders can access, play around, I mean, leverage Google Bard.   What are the risks involved for enterprises ? The reality is that it's not any different than the risk of using an unsanctioned app. I mean data exfiltration capabilities, privacy issues et al, makes Google Bard a veritable minefield for every security organization.   Google explicitly advertises Bard as way to make life simpler for software devs. This is the biggest risk I see for most enterprises when it comes to Bard and other similar platforms. The risk of devs copy/pasting sensitive code for debugging, and/or un

Hello!I´m preparing test environment to make support for Customer with Workspace One and Android Device.The applications installs OK! But the certificates is not present in the work "container".
