Visibility and control over sanctioned and unsanctioned services
Netskope sees and decodes all cloud traffic, not just sanctioned browser traffic like most CASBs. Our patented, all-mode architecture gives you visibility and control over sanctioned and unsanctioned services whether users are on a web browser, mobile app, or sync client. When nine out of 10 of your cloud services are unsanctioned, visibility and control are critical!
Now combine that full visibility with granular policy controls. Rather than take a sledgehammer approach by always blocking cloud services, use the Netskope Context Engine as your scalpel. Identify risky activities and their context, such as sharing outside of the organization or downloading confidential data to a BYO device, and block or throttle those instead. Choose from policy outcomes such as “block,” “alert,” “bypass,” “encrypt,” “quarantine,” and “coach” to match the appropriate enforcement to each policy violation.
For sanctioned services like Microsoft Office 365, Box, and G Suite, Netskope provides full-spectrum governance across user, service, device, location, activity, and content. Enforce policies such as “Coach users when they attempt to download personally identifiable information (PII) from any HR service to a mobile device,” and more. For unsanctioned services, Netskope provides visibility and control at the service, service instance, or category level with “set-it-once” policies like “Block the download of PII to all mobile devices.”
This video gives you cloud security best practices and specific policy examples. Learn how to enforce a “layered” exception policy to address use cases such as enforcing different policies in a sanctioned instances versus personal instances of a cloud service like Dropbox.
Netskope provides the ability to understand and control real-time activities, such as edits, shares, and downloads, in cloud services. And with deep visibility into these activities, you can define granular policies that target and control specific risky activities, such as blocking the download of sensitive data to an unmanaged device.
Enforce granular, activity-level policies to protect regulated data. You can protect regulated data by restricting it from being shared like “Block upload of protected health information (PHI) to any big data service,” or protecting it in transit or on data already resident in a sanctioned service with encryption policies.
When you enforce a policy such as blocking uploads to an unsanctioned cloud service, provide an automated message to coach the user (e.g., provide a link to the corporate-sanctioned alternative of the cloud service). Let users justify or report a false positive.
Enforce conditional access policies based on user, service, device, location, activity, and content. For example, allow users on corporate devices full access to the Office 365 suite while limiting BYOD users only to the web version of the services.
