To create a policy that will notify and allow users to log into their personal Google Drive instance, you need to configure the following components:

Steering Exception:

This component allows you to create exceptions for specific traffic. In this case, you will configure a steering exception to allow traffic to personal Google Drive instances. This ensures that the policy correctly routes the traffic to the appropriate destination without being blocked or filtered incorrectly.

User Alert:

A User Alert component will be configured to notify users when they attempt to log into their personal Google Drive. This alert can provide information about the policy and any actions the user may need to take. It helps in enforcing the policy by informing users about the specific conditions or restrictions.

The parameter shown in the exhibit (File Profile) is crucial in policies where file type, size, and other attributes need to be specified. Here are two use cases where this parameter is required:

When you create a policy to prevent file transfer between a sanctioned Google Drive and personal Google Drive:

Explanation: In this use case, the File Profile is used to define the types of files that are not allowed to be transferred between different Google Drive instances. By specifying the file types in the policy, administrators can ensure that sensitive corporate data is not transferred to personal accounts.

Implementation: Create a new File Profile with the desired file types and apply this profile in the policy that governs the data transfer rules between sanctioned and personal Google Drive instances.

When you create a policy to prevent binary files larger than 5 MB that are shared publicly on a sanctioned OneDrive:

Explanation: This use case involves creating a policy that restricts the sharing of large binary files (e.g., executable files) on publicly accessible folders in OneDrive. The File Profile parameter allows defining the file size and type criteria.

Implementation: Define a File Profile that specifies binary files and sets a size limit (e.g., 5 MB). Apply this profile in the policy to prevent such files from being shared publicly.

A SASE (Secure Access Service Edge) solution provides networking functions that go beyond the capabilities of an SSE (Security Service Edge) solution. Specifically, a SASE solution integrates:

Software Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN): SD-WAN enhances network performance and efficiency by dynamically routing traffic across the best available paths. It provides greater flexibility, improved application performance, and reduced costs compared to traditional WAN solutions.

In contrast, SSE focuses on security services like Secure Web Gateway, Cloud Access Security Broker, and Data Loss Prevention, but does not include networking functions such as SD-WAN.

References:

Netskope's documentation on SASE and SSE solutions, highlighting the differences and additional functionalities provided by SASE, including SD-WAN.

Detailed explanation of SD-WAN and its integration into SASE solutions.

Digital Experience Management (DEM) in Netskope allows administrators to monitor the following areas:

Bandwidth consumption: DEM provides insights into how much bandwidth is being used by different applications and services, helping administrators to optimize network performance and ensure efficient use of resources.

Client steering data: DEM collects data on how traffic is being steered through the Netskope infrastructure, including details about routing decisions, performance metrics, and user experiences. This helps administrators understand the impact of their steering policies and make adjustments to improve performance.

User activities (option A) and information on triggered policies (option C) are more directly related to other features such as activity logs and policy enforcement dashboards rather than DEM.

The two traffic steering configurations that are supported by Netskope are cloud applications only and all Web traffic including cloud applications. These configurations allow you to control what kind of traffic gets steered to Netskope for real-time deep analysis and what kind of traffic gets bypassed. You can choose one of these options for both on-premises and off-premises scenarios, depending on your network environment and security needs. You can also create exceptions for specific domains, IP addresses, or certificate-pinned applications that you want to bypass or steer regardless of the configuration option. References: Steering ConfigurationCreating a Steering Configuration

When reviewing files affected by malware in the Netskope UI under Incidents -> Malware, you have the following options:

Identify the exposure of the file identified as malware: This allows you to see where the malware has spread within the organization, which users or systems are affected, and any potential data exposure resulting from the malware.

Determine the Detection Engine used to identify the malware: Netskope provides details on which detection engine (such as AV, sandboxing, or other heuristic engines) identified the malware. This helps in understanding the threat vector and the reliability of the detection.

Downloading the original malware file (option A) is generally not recommended for security reasons and may not be supported directly from the Netskope UI. Remediation of compromised devices (option C) would typically be handled through endpoint security solutions rather than directly from the Netskope UI.

Netskope Rest APIv2(OAS 3.1) - Postman Collection

The inline and API implementation of the Netskope platform are two different ways of connecting cloud applications to Netskope for inspection and policy enforcement. Two fundamental differences between them are: The API implementation can only be used with sanctioned applications, which are applications that are approved and authorized by the organization for business use. The API implementation relies on using out-of-band API connections to access data and events from these applications and apply near real-time policies. The inline implementation can effectively block a transaction in both sanctioned and unsanctioned applications, which are applications that are not approved or authorized by the organization for business use. The inline implementation relies on using in-band proxy or reverse-proxy connections to intercept traffic to and from these applications and apply real-time policies. The API implementation can be used with both sanctioned and unsanctioned applications and the inline implementation can only effectively block a transaction in sanctioned applications are not true statements, as they contradict the actual capabilities and limitations of each implementation method. References: [Netskope SaaS API-enabled Protection], [Netskope Inline CASB].

The statement that is true in this scenario is: Certificate-related settings apply to each individual steering configuration level. Certificate-related settings are the options that allow you to configure how Netskope handles SSL/TLS certificates for encrypted web traffic. For example, you can choose whether to allow or block self-signed certificates, expired certificates, revoked certificates, etc. You can also choose whether to enable SSL decryption for specific domains or categories. Certificate-related settings apply to each individual steering configuration level, which means that you can have different settings for different types of traffic or devices. For example, you can have one steering configuration for managed devices and another one for unmanaged devices, and apply different certificate-related settings for each one. This allows you to customize your security policies based on your needs and preferences. References: Netskope SSL DecryptionNetskope Steering Configuration

In the exhibit, a user is uploading a file containing PCI-DSS data to the corporate Google Drive instance. Despite the policy that blocks DLP (Data Loss Prevention) uploads being active, the upload is not blocked. This indicates that the policy is not applied in the correct order.

Netskope applies policies in a top-down manner. If there are multiple policies that could apply to an action, the order in which the policies are evaluated is crucial. In this case, another policy might be allowing the upload before the DLP policy can block it. Ensuring that the DLP policy is higher in the order can resolve this issue.

References:

Netskope policy configuration and enforcement documentation.

Details on how Netskope processes and applies policies based on their order in the policy list.

To present a view of all upload activities completed by users tunneled from the Los Angeles office to cloud storage applications, the following two basic filters should be used on the SkopeIT Applications page:

Activity: This filter will allow you to specify the type of activity, in this case, "upload."

Access Method: This filter will help to specify the method of access, which is necessary to filter activities that are tunneled.

These filters combined will provide a comprehensive view of the required activities. For further details, please refer to the Netskope documentation on setting up and using filters in SkopeIT Applications.

In the Skope IT interface, which is a feature in the Netskope platform that allows you to view and analyze all the activities performed by users on cloud applications, there are two event tables that would be used to label a cloud application instance: Page Events and Application Events. Page Events are events that capture the URL and category of the web pages visited by users, as well as the time spent and the bytes transferred on each page. Application Events are events that capture the details of the actions performed by users on cloud applications, such as upload, download, share, edit, delete, etc. You can use these event tables to label a cloud application instance by applying filters based on the domain name or URL of the instance, such as drive.google.com/a/yourcompany.com or slack.com/yourteam. You can then assign a custom label to the filtered events and use it for reporting or policy enforcement. Network Events and Alerts are not event tables that would be used to label a cloud application instance, as they are more related to network traffic or policy violations, rather than cloud application activities. References: [Netskope Skope IT], Netskope Security Cloud Operation & Administration (NSCO&A) - Classroom Course, Module 8: Skope IT.

Best practices for configuring and deploying Netskope Publisher to ensure secure connectivity to private applications.

=================

Legacy solutions, such as on-premises firewalls and proxies, fail to secure the data and data access compared to Netskope Secure Web Gateway because they are designed for a perimeter-based security model, where the applications and the users are both within the corporate network. However, with the rise of cloud computing and remote work, this model is no longer valid. The applications where the data resides are no longer in one central location, but distributed across multiple cloud services and regions. The users accessing this data are not in one central place, but working from anywhere, on any device. Legacy solutions cannot provide adequate visibility and control over this dynamic and complex environment, resulting in security gaps and performance issues. Netskope Secure Web Gateway, on the other hand, leverages a cloud-native architecture that provides high-performance and scalable inspection of traffic from any location and device, as well as granular policies and advanced threat and data protection for web and cloud applications. References: Netskope Architecture OverviewNetskope Next Gen SWG

ï‚· AD Connector:

The AD Connector is used to integrate your Netskope tenant with Active Directory (AD) to provision and synchronize user accounts.

It ensures that user information in Netskope is always up-to-date by periodically synchronizing with AD.

To set up the AD Connector:

Navigate to Settings > Tools > Directory Importer.

Configure the AD Connector with your AD details.

Set the synchronization schedule.

This method is commonly used in enterprise environments where AD is the primary user directory.

ï‚· SCIM (System for Cross-domain Identity Management):

SCIM is an open standard for automating the exchange of user identity information between identity domains or IT systems.

Netskope supports SCIM for provisioning users from identity providers like Okta, Azure AD, and others.

To configure SCIM:

Go to Settings > Tools > SCIM.

Follow the instructions to set up SCIM with your identity provider.

To restrict cloud users from uploading data to risky cloud storage services as defined by the Cloud Confidence Index (CCI) in the Netskope platform, you would use the following policy elements:

Category: This policy element allows you to define and restrict actions based on the category of the cloud application. For example, you can categorize cloud storage services and create policies that restrict uploads to any application that falls under this category.

Cloud Confidence Level: This policy element leverages the Cloud Confidence Index (CCI), which rates the risk level of cloud applications. By using the Cloud Confidence Level, you can create policies that restrict uploads to applications with a low confidence level, thereby preventing data uploads to risky cloud storage services.

References:

Using the Netskope Knowledge Portal documentation, specifically under policy configuration and enforcement, which details how to use categories and Cloud Confidence Level in policy creation.

Postman collection and API documentation that describes the usage of these elements in the Netskope API.

=================

When comparing data in motion with data at rest, the following statements are correct:

Data in motion requires the Netskope client: To inspect and enforce policies on data as it is being transmitted across the network (data in motion), the Netskope client is required. The client steers the traffic through the Netskope cloud where it is analyzed and policies are applied in real-time.

Data at rest requires API integration: To scan and enforce policies on data stored in cloud applications (data at rest), API integration is required. This allows Netskope to directly interact with cloud services and perform actions such as scanning for malware, applying DLP policies, and ensuring compliance.

References:

Netskope documentation on data protection strategies, including data in motion and data at rest.

Best practices for implementing API integrations for data at rest and using the Netskope client for data in motion.

To provide an additional pop-up warning to users before allowing them to proceed to web applications categorized as "low" or "poor" by Netskope's Cloud Confidence Index (CCI), you can:

Enable real-time user coaching based on CCL: This feature allows administrators to create policies that provide real-time guidance and warnings to users when they attempt to access web applications with low or poor confidence levels. This helps in educating users about the potential risks and ensures that they proceed with caution.

References:

Netskope documentation on configuring real-time user coaching and leveraging the Cloud Confidence Index for policy enforcement.

Best practices for using CCL to guide user behavior and enhance security awareness.

=================

The Cloud Confidence Index (CCI) has several use cases, including:

To identify the activities that Netskope supports for cloud applications: The CCI helps administrators understand which activities are supported and monitored by Netskope for various cloud applications. This includes knowing the types of data that can be protected and the actions that can be controlled within those applications.

To compare similar cloud applications: The CCI provides a comparative assessment of cloud applications based on their security and compliance postures. This allows organizations to make informed decisions about which applications to approve or restrict based on their confidence levels.

These use cases help organizations enhance their security posture by using the CCI to guide application usage policies and ensure compliance with internal standards.

References:

Netskope documentation on Cloud Confidence Index and its applications in policy creation and management.

Guides on using CCI to assess and compare cloud applications for better security and compliance.

=================

To enable Netskope to gain visibility into your users’ cloud application activities in an inline mode, you need to use a deployment method that allows Netskope to intercept and inspect the traffic between your users and the cloud applications in real time. Two deployment methods that would match your inline use case are: use a forward proxy and use a reverse proxy. A forward proxy is a deployment method that allows Netskope to act as a proxy server for your users’ outbound traffic to the internet. You can configure your users’ devices or browsers to send their traffic to Netskope’s proxy server, either manually or using PAC files or VPN profiles. A reverse proxy is a deployment method that allows Netskope to act as a proxy server for your users’ inbound traffic from specific cloud applications. You can configure your cloud applications to redirect their traffic to Netskope’s proxy server, either using custom URLs or certificates. Using an API connector or a log parser are not deployment methods that would match your inline use case, as they are more suitable for out-of-band modes that rely on accessing data and events from the cloud applications using APIs or logs, rather than intercepting traffic in real time. References: [Netskope Inline CASB], Netskope Security Cloud Operation & Administration (NSCO&A) - Classroom Course, Module 3: Steering Configuration, Lesson 4: Forward Proxy and Lesson 5: Reverse Proxy.

A benefit that Netskope instance awareness provides is that it differentiates between an IT managed Google Drive instance versus a personal Google Drive instance. Instance awareness is a feature in the Netskope platform that allows you to define and identify different instances of the same cloud application based on the domain name or URL. For example, you can define an instance for your IT managed Google Drive instance (such as drive.google.com/a/yourcompany.com) and another instance for your personal Google Drive instance (such as drive.google.com). This way, you can differentiate between them and apply different policies and actions based on the instance. This can help you prevent data leakage, enforce compliance, or improve visibility for your cloud application activities. Preventing movement of corporate sensitive data to a personal Dropbox account, preventing the user from copying information from a corporate email and pasting it into a GitHub repository, or differentiating between an IT managed Google Drive instance versus an IT managed Box instance are not benefits that Netskope instance awareness provides, as they are either unrelated or irrelevant to the instance awareness feature. References: Netskope Security Cloud Operation & Administration (NSCO&A) - Classroom Course, Module 5: Real-Time Policies, Lesson 4: App Instances.

The portion of the interface shown in the exhibit that allows an administrator to set severity, assign ownership, track progress, and perform forensic analysis with excerpts of violating content is Incidents -> DLP. The Incidents dashboard provides a comprehensive view of all the incidents that have occurred in your cloud environment, such as DLP violations, malware infections, anomalous activities, etc. You can filter the incidents by various criteria, such as app name, incident type, severity, user name, etc. You can also drill down into each incident to see more details, such as file name, file path, file owner, file size, file type, etc. You can also assign an owner to an incident, change its status and severity, add notes or comments, and view the excerpts of the violating content that triggered the DLP policy. References: Netskope Incidents Dashboard

To determine which data plane a user is traversing, an administrator can use the following methods:

Settings -> Security Cloud Platform -> Client Configuration: This section provides details about the client configurations and the data planes assigned to different users or groups. By reviewing the client configuration, administrators can determine the data plane a user is connected to.

SkopeIT -> Alerts -> View Details: In the SkopeIT alerts, administrators can view detailed information about user activities, including the data plane through which the user traffic is being routed. This provides real-time insights into the user's path through the Netskope infrastructure.

ï‚· Adaptive Zero Trust Data Protection Overview:

Netskope's Adaptive Zero Trust Data Protection ensures that data is protected based on continuous risk assessments and adaptive policies that respond to changing contexts and threats.

ï‚· Contextual Risk Awareness:

This capability involves understanding the context around data access and usage to assess risk dynamically.

Netskope leverages various signals such as user behavior, device security posture, location, and other factors to gauge risk levels.

By continuously evaluating these factors, Netskope can enforce appropriate security measures in real-time.

ï‚· Continuous Adaptive Policies:

Policies in the Netskope platform adapt continuously based on the assessed risk and changing contexts.

These policies are not static; they evolve based on ongoing risk assessments and threat intelligence.

Adaptive policies ensure that security measures are always aligned with the current threat landscape and organizational requirements.

ï‚· References:

For detailed capabilities and how they are implemented, refer to the Netskope documentation on Adaptive Zero Trust Data Protection​​​​.

To monitor IPsec tunnels to a Netskope data plane, it is essential to ensure the stability and responsiveness of the tunnels. The recommended steps involve enabling monitoring mechanisms that detect and respond to tunnel failures. Here’s a detailed explanation of the two recommended steps:

Enable IKE Dead Peer Detection (DPD) for each tunnel:

Explanation: IKE Dead Peer Detection (DPD) is a method used to detect if the peer (remote endpoint of the tunnel) is no longer available or reachable. By enabling DPD, the device can automatically detect and tear down the IPsec tunnel if the peer does not respond, allowing for quick re-establishment of the tunnel if needed.

Implementation: Configure DPD in the IPsec settings of the perimeter device. This ensures that if the Netskope data plane is unreachable, the tunnel is automatically terminated and re-negotiated.

Send ICMP requests to the Netskope location's Probe IP:

Explanation: Sending ICMP requests (ping) to the Netskope location's Probe IP helps in monitoring the availability and latency of the connection to the Netskope data plane. If the ICMP requests fail, it indicates a potential issue with the connectivity.

Implementation: Set up regular ICMP requests (ping) from the perimeter device to the Netskope Probe IPs. This allows for continuous monitoring of the tunnel’s health and immediate detection of connectivity issues.

To locate information pertaining to a DLP violation on a file in your sanctioned Google Drive instance, you can use the Incidents dashboard in Netskope. The Incidents dashboard provides a comprehensive view of all the incidents that have occurred in your cloud environment, such as DLP violations, malware infections, anomalous activities, etc. You can filter the incidents by various criteria, such as app name, incident type, severity, user name, etc. You can also drill down into each incident to see more details, such as file name, file path, file owner, file size, file type, etc. The Incidents dashboard can show DLP violations for files that are in a deleted state, as long as they are still recoverable from the trash bin of the app. If the file is permanently deleted from the app, then the incident will not be visible in the dashboard. References: Netskope Incidents Dashboard

Two primary advantages of Netskope’s Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) architecture are: no on-premises hardware required for policy enforcement and single management console. Netskope’s SASE architecture delivers network and security services as cloud-based services that can be accessed from any location and device. This eliminates the need for on-premises hardware appliances such as firewalls, proxies, VPNs, etc., that are costly to maintain and scale. Netskope’s SASE architecture also provides a single management console that allows administrators to configure and monitor all the network and security services from one place. This simplifies IT operations and reduces complexity and overhead. References: Netskope SASEWhat is SASE?
