AI

Stop Guessing. Start Guiding. With Netskope Copilot.

Copilot for Private Access simplifies ZTNA by auto-recommending granular app segments and least-privilege policies for new deployments. For existing environments, it learns from real user data to refine policies, replaces broad destinations with precise ones, and removes unused rules and stale configs.

Flexible access methods

chevron

Service Delivery Partners

Enable fast, reliable access with agent-based and browser options. Intelligent policies route traffic via cloud (with auto-failover and shortest-latency paths) or local brokers. Local Broker extends ZTNA to on-prem and OT environments, avoids cloud hairpinning, and adds built-in disaster recovery for resilience.

Built-in threat and data protection

chevron
