Netskope

What is Netskope?

Netskope is a cloud-native security platform built on the Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) architecture, providing visibility and control over data and threats across cloud applications, web traffic, and private application access. Its Zero Trust Network Access engine evaluates every connection request against identity, device posture, and behavioral context before granting access, applying granular policies that can distinguish between sanctioned and unsanctioned cloud app usage. Netskope's inline inspection of cloud traffic allows it to detect data exfiltration attempts, malware downloads, and compromised credential usage in real time. The platform generates detailed transaction logs covering every cloud app interaction, web request, and private app session, which are valuable for SOC investigations involving insider threats, cloud account compromise, or shadow IT usage.

How does Netskope work with Qevlar?

Qevlar integrates with Netskope to pull cloud access and web traffic logs during investigations involving data exfiltration or cloud account compromise. When an alert suggests that sensitive data may be leaving the organization through a cloud application, Qevlar can query Netskope to identify the specific transactions involved and determine whether the activity matches known threat patterns.
