Why Real-time SIEM Integration is the Unsung Hero of Zero Trust Security

Zero trust architectures are no longer an option—they are a necessity in today’s hybrid, AI-driven world. 

This non-negotiable approach generates a continuous stream of telemetry about users, devices, applications, and data, which is vital for making adaptive, risk-based decisions in real time. To process and act on this critical, high-volume intelligence, security operations centers (SOCs) rely on their security information and event management (SIEM) tools as the essential “last mile” solution. Netskope recently announced Netskope Log Streaming, an innovative capability that delivers real-time access to all Netskope-generated security logs directly into your preferred cloud storage and last-mile SIEM tools. This direct streaming approach eliminates the need for customers to manage extra infrastructure like virtual machines for log ingestion, drastically cutting down on complexity, cost, and operational effort.

One of Netskope’s core missions is to help customers design a robust zero trust ecosystem, and our extensive partner network, including leaders in the SIEM and security analytics space, is key to this. The Netskope One platform is a converged SASE/SSE solution that provides unparalleled visibility, control, and security for your users, applications, and data. By directly feeding the rich, contextual telemetry from Netskope One into your SIEM—including CrowdStrike Next-Gen SIEM, Splunk, Microsoft Sentinel, and Cribl—we unlock immediate, actionable insights for your SOC. This partnership brings the deep security context of the Netskope Zero Trust Engine to your last-mile SIEM, empowering SOCs with the speed and scalability needed, while also giving you the power to control cost and increase efficiency by leveraging features like log filtering and usage insights.

These key integrations dramatically streamline security operations and maximize your existing technology investments:

• Netskope + CrowdStrike: We integrate with the CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Generation SIEM solution to share critical Netskope event logs and alerts for cloud security edge activity. This unification of telemetry accelerates threat investigations for faster time to remediation.
• Netskope + Splunk: The Netskope App for Splunk allows administrators to ingest, parse, normalize, and search all Netskope data inside the Splunk platform. This provides a crucial single-pane-of-glass view for security and adaptive orchestration, maximizing your Splunk investment.
• Netskope + Cribl: With Cribl Stream, you can take charge of your Netskope data and intelligently route and format valuable Netskope telemetry to any destination, maximizing your security investments. Furthermore, using Cribl Lake and Search provides cost-effective long-term storage and instant access to historical logs, which is crucial for fast and thorough investigations.
• Netskope + Microsoft: Netskope Log Streaming enhances the integration with Microsoft Sentinel (formerly Azure Sentinel) by aggregating and correlating views on cloud and web activity. This reduces the friction of pulling data from disparate sources, providing a comprehensive, aggregate view of your security posture to drive zero trust outcomes.

Netskope Log Streaming fundamentally simplifies the secure ingestion of high-fidelity cloud security data into your SIEM, improving operational efficiency and accelerating your ability to defend against modern threats. By choosing to integrate Netskope One with these best-of-breed partners, you gain a seamless, scalable approach to turning vast security intelligence into decisive, cost-effective action.
