Back 
Today we are very excited to unveil Netskope One, which is our new name for the full range of market-leading Netskope capabilities that are contained in, and delivered by, a single platform. Netskope One enables security, infrastructure and operations (I&O) teams to reduce risk, cost, and complexity, protecting and accelerating everything to everywhere. Not only can we offer these unique capabilities; crucially, we are the only vendor that can deliver them all in a single platform.
This is the culmination of years of integration and innovation from our engineering and operations teams, and the continued expansion of our platform through both homegrown innovation and strategic acquisition. Today, Netskope One uniquely combines secure remote user access to web, cloud, and private apps, alongside endpoint DLP and endpoint SD-WAN. Now that we have all of these capabilities in one platform, engine, network, client and gateway, the name Netskope One says it best.
Why is this so important now? My conversations with more than 3,000 Netskope customers—and with those about to become our customers—inevitably lead back to one, or often all of these truths:
- Most ”zero trust strategies” feel intangible or even abstract, and aren’t organized with data protection in mind. This leaves organizations thinking that although a lot of what zero trust and SASE can offer sounds good “on paper,” they’re missing how to practically apply these concepts to what they should buy, what they should integrate, and how they should staff it.
- Everything wants to connect to everything else, everywhere—and AI is further driving this goal. Any security or networking solution that isn’t designed and built for this inevitability is already inadequate.
- More than 50% of all threats come from the cloud, but many organizations can’t currently inspect the most prevalent or important traffic from applications such as Microsoft 365, which leaves their technology full of blind spots, and, unfortunately, their data exposed.
- All business leaders want to propel growth, stay competitive, reduce risk, and lower their costs. Many have become resigned to only being able to achieve some of those goals with their technology purchases. We explain Netskope One in terms of what it (and we) can do to help all of those goals.
The Heart of the Platform
Frequent readers of my updates here will remember the origin story of Netskope technology; drawn on a napkin (which I still have) and predicated on the idea that the use of cloud applications and ‘work from anywhere’ in business would take hold and grow a lot faster than many anticipated at the time. At least 8 out of every 10 CIOs and CISOs I spoke to back then told us we were crazy, and maybe they were right (in a good way!). But we believed that the risks of using so many cloud and SaaS applications, and working outside of your physical office, would quickly leave then-current security technology behind. We also believed that it wouldn’t go far enough to just improve that aging technology with some extra cloud-centric bells and whistles. We had to rethink the entire enterprise strategy for protecting critical data from threats.
At the heart of Netskope One sits the Netskope Zero Trust Engine. Originally created to facilitate deep visibility into (and control over) SaaS and web apps, today the Zero Trust Engine allows us to provide unprecedented context for the actions being performed across all cloud, SaaS, web, and private applications. This insight is uniquely granular, from the profile of the user and the circumstances of what device and what network they are using, to the action they are performing and the data they are interacting with, and it enables security teams to determine how safe all of those elements are at any given second. The Zero Trust Engine allows organizations to continually assess and adapt decisions on who and what to trust.
The added strength of the Zero Trust Engine is that it goes beyond risk identification, using machine learning to automatically resolve risks, allowing security teams to address new challenges and better enable business, instead of “just” blocking or unreasonably restricting their teams.
Today the Zero Trust Engine is proving its architectural flexibility, providing contextual, adaptable and proactive security for new generative AI applications. We can safely enable, rather than aggressively restrict generative AI, thanks in large part to the AI and machine learning capabilities we built into the Zero Trust Engine from the beginning.
But there’s so much more.
Security and Network Performance—Together
Our earliest discussions with customers made it clear that the need for speed and performance was on a collision course with the need for more security. The network can’t be insecure, but the security also can’t slow the network down. This is why we made the strategic decision to invest in building our NewEdge network, which ensures that robust security and a phenomenal, localized user experience can both be seamlessly delivered—simultaneously and without any trade offs.
NewEdge today spans more than 70 regions, and provides our customers with unrestricted worldwide access that puts compute wherever users are, for an unmatched experience and full regulatory compliance. Because it is our own private network and not dependent on third-party public cloud infrastructure, it also allows us to directly control the performance and reliability that our customers experience. Loss of visibility is a major concern for I&O leaders, but with Netskope One, customers retain visibility and control, proactively managing the end-to-end experience from user-to-destination and everything in between.
A Platform for Solving Business Challenges
The Zero Trust Engine, NewEdge network, and our many other widely recognized security and networking capabilities power Netskope One to fulfill the promise of secure access service edge (SASE) as the architecture of the future. With Netskope One, we offer customers the opportunity to leave behind the sprawling collections of tools most of our competitors would call “SASE” or “zero trust” in favor of one elegant platform.
When I describe Netskope One to some of the most discerning, technically accomplished CIOs, CISOs, and I&O leaders I’ve ever met, their eyes light up. Why? Practically speaking:
O poder de um
- Netskope One simplifies administration by offering a unified policy that spans all channels, reducing operational cost and complexity and better safeguarding the business. With this unified approach, teams are freed from the inefficiencies of switching between multiple consoles and depending on error-prone integrations typical in product suites. This simplicity not only streamlines operations, but it also ensures more effective and consistent security practices across the business.
- Netskope One integrates with—and extends—a company’s existing investments to maximize efficiency and enhance capabilities in a way that simplifies and strengthens an organization’s overall security posture and improves operational efficiency and effectiveness. We believe in being open, and that security and networking is an ecosystem, and we must all commit to integrate with other platforms (such as EDR or Identity and Access Management) for the good of customers as well as all of us who are unified in fighting the good fight against attackers and malicious actors.
- Netskope One enables the consolidation of tools and capabilities within an existing network and security architecture aligned with a company’s business needs, priorities, and operational timelines. This approach avoids the risks and costs associated with complete system overhauls or purchasing unnecessary products.
Visibilidade com tecnologia de IA & Proteção
- Netskope One efficiently decrypts and inspects all internet traffic—including major cloud applications such as Microsoft 365—without compromising the user experience. Users frequently experience faster performance, even when compared to direct-to-internet, thanks to our route control capabilities and extensive peering relationships and close proximity to user locations. This thorough inspection ensures comprehensive visibility and strengthens overall security posture.
A Phenomenal User Experience
- Netskope One meets the historically conflicting needs of I&O and security teams without trade offs. The industry’s largest, fastest, and most reliable private security cloud makes it easy for organizations to defend their businesses and data while delivering a phenomenal end user experience.
Not only can this be done today in one platform, it is being done today, with more than 3,000 Netskope customers worldwide, in every major industry. I invite you to experience Netskope One for yourself.
