What is Generative AI?

At Netskope, we believe in the safe and responsible implementation of generative AI. Here’s how we help organization safely enable apps like ChatGPT:

App Usage Visibility and Monitoring: Using the industry’s broadest discovery and most granular categorization of SaaS and IaaS services, the Netskope solution is designed to discover and monitor the use of ChatGPT and other generative AI apps across a company’s entire network. Using Netskope Advanced Analytics, Netskope provides app usage visibility, including context and instance identification, data movement and exposure, as well as user behavior and insider risk discovery..

Data Privacy and Compliance: Our company upholds granular data security and privacy protocols, safeguarding sensitive information, and adhering to regulatory requirements. Netskope DLP identifies flows of sensitive data with the highest level of precision, preventing any unsafe exposure on SaaS applications like ChatGPT, as well as on personal SaaS apps’ instances. With Netskope’s data loss prevention (DLP), powered by our own ML and AI models, thousands of file types, personally identifiable information, intellectual property (IP), financial records and other sensitive data are confidently identified and automatically protected from unwanted and non-compliant exposure.

Automatic user coaching and real-time data protection: While applications that are more explicitly malicious should be blocked, when it comes to access control, oftentimes the responsibility of the use of applications like ChatGPT should be given to the users. Organizations may want to consider tolerating (versus blocking) activities that make sense to a subset or to a majority of employees. At the same time, security teams have the responsibility to make employees aware of applications and activities that are deemed risky. This can be accomplished through real-time alerts and automated coaching workflows, involving the user in the access decisions after acknowledging the risk. Netskope Data Loss Prevention (DLP) offers several enforcement options to stop and limit the upload and posting of highly sensitive data through generative AI apps. This real-time enforcement applies to every user connection, ensuring data is safe anytime, anywhere.
