A file filter is a list of file hashes that you can use to exclude files from inspection by Netskope. By adding the hash of the file that triggered a false alarm to the file filter, you can prevent it from being scanned again by Netskope and avoid generating another incident. Quarantining the file, exporting the packet capture, or looking up the hash at VirusTotal are not effective ways to prevent the same file from triggering another incident, as they do not affect how Netskope handles the file. References: Netskope Security Cloud Operation & Administration (NSCO&A) - Classroom Course, Module 6: Data Loss Prevention, Lesson 2: File Filters.

To create a service request ticket for a client-related issue using the Netskope client UI, you need to generate the client logs by right-clicking on the system tray icon and choosing Troubleshoot. This will open a window where you can select the option to Save Logs, which will create a zip file containing the client logs. You can then attach this file to your service request ticket and provide any relevant details about the issue. Choosing Save logs, Configuration, or Help will not generate the client logs, as they perform different functions, such as saving the current configuration, opening the settings menu, or opening the help page. References: [Netskope Client Troubleshooting].

When creating a real-time policy for cloud applications, you can use access method and device classification as source criteria, in addition to users, groups, and organizational units. Access method refers to how the user accesses the cloud application, such as browser, sync client, mobile app, etc. Device classification refers to the type of device used by the user, such as managed or unmanaged, Windows or Mac, etc. These criteria can help you define granular policies based on different scenarios and risks. References: [Creating Real-Time Policies for Cloud Applications]

To deploy Netskope’s zero trust network access (ZTNA) solution, NPA, you need to enable Steer all Private Apps in your existing steering configuration(s) from the admin console. This will allow you to create private app profiles and assign them to your applications. NPA will then provide secure and granular access to your applications without exposing them to the internet or requiring VPNs. References: [Netskope Private Access (NPA) Deployment Guide]

In this scenario, there are two methods to obtain a detailed list of all events from the last 24 hours for a specific user. One method is to export the data from Skope IT Application Events, which is a feature in the Netskope platform that allows you to view and analyze all the activities performed by users on cloud applications. You can use filters to narrow down your search by user name, time range, application, activity, and other criteria. You can then export the data to a CSV or JSON file for further analysis or reporting. Another method is to use the Netskope REST API, which is a programmatic interface that allows you to access and manipulate data from the Netskope platform using HTTP requests. You can use the API to query for events by user name, time range, application, activity, and other parameters. You can then retrieve the data in JSON format for further analysis or integration with other tools. Using the Netskope reporting engine or exporting the data from Skope IT Alerts are not methods to obtain a detailed list of all events from the last 24 hours for a specific user, as they are more suited for generating summary reports or alerts based on predefined criteria or thresholds, rather than granular event data. References: [Netskope Skope IT Application Events], [Netskope REST API].

Netskope’s NewEdge Security Cloud Network Infrastructure is a global network that powers the Netskope Security Cloud, providing real-time inline and out-of-band API-driven services for cloud and web security. Three statements that are correct about Netskope’s NewEdge Security Cloud Network Infrastructure are:

• It includes direct peering with Microsoft and Google in every data center. This means that Netskope has established high-speed, low-latency connections with these major cloud service providers, ensuring optimal performance and user experience for their customers. Direct peering also reduces the risk of network congestion, packet loss, or routing issues that may affect the quality of service.
• It is a private security cloud network that is massively over provisioned, highly elastic, and built for scale. This means that Netskope owns and operates its own network infrastructure, without relying on third-party providers or public cloud platforms. Netskope has invested over $150 million to build the world’s largest and fastest security private cloud, with data centers in more than 65 regions and growing. Netskope can dynamically scale its network capacity and resources to meet the growing demand and traffic volume of its customers, without compromising on security or performance.
• It delivers a single, unified network with no surcharges or reliance on public cloud infrastructure or virtual PoPs. This means that Netskope provides a consistent and transparent network service to its customers, regardless of their location or device. Netskope does not charge any additional fees or hidden costs for accessing its network services, unlike some other providers that may impose surcharges based on geography or bandwidth usage. Netskope also does not use virtual points of presence (PoPs) that are hosted on public cloud platforms, which may introduce latency, complexity, or security risks.

A Netskope Virtual Appliance is a software-based appliance that can be deployed on-premises or in the cloud to provide various functions and features for the Netskope Security Cloud platform. One use for deploying a Netskope Virtual Appliance is as an endpoint for Netskope Private Access (NPA), which is a service that allows users to securely access private applications without exposing them to the internet or using VPNs. Another use for deploying a Netskope Virtual Appliance is as a Secure Forwarder to steer traffic from on-premises devices or networks to the Netskope platform for inspection and policy enforcement. Using a Netskope Virtual Appliance as a local reverse-proxy to secure a SaaS application or as a log parser to discover in-use cloud applications are not valid uses, as these functions are performed by other components of the Netskope Security Cloud platform, such as the Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) or the Cloud XD engine. References: Netskope Security Cloud Operation & Administration (NSCO&A) - Classroom Course, Module 2: Architecture Overview; [Netskope Private Access]; [Netskope Secure Forwarder].

 To provide a quick view under the Skope IT Applications page showing only risky shadow IT cloud applications being used, you can use two filter combinations: Sanctioned = No and CCL = Medium, Low, Poor. The Sanctioned filter allows you to select whether you want to see only sanctioned or unsanctioned apps in your organization. Sanctioned apps are those that are approved and managed by your IT department, while unsanctioned apps are those that are used without authorization or oversight by your employees. Shadow IT refers to the use ofunsanctioned apps that may pose security or compliance risks for your organization. The CCL filter allows you to select the Cloud Confidence Level (CCL) ratings of the apps you want to see. The CCL rating is a measure of how enterprise-ready a cloud app is based on various criteria such as security, auditability, business continuity, etc. The CCL rating ranges from Excellent to Poor, with Excellent being the most secure and compliant and Poor being the least. Risky cloud apps are those that have a low CCL rating, such as Medium, Low, or Poor. By applying these two filters, you can narrow down the list of apps to only those that are unsanctioned and have a low CCL rating, which indicates that they are risky shadow IT cloud applications being used in your organization. References: SkopeIT ApplicationsNetskope Cloud Confidence Index

CASB inline interception use cases are scenarios where you need to apply real-time policies and actions on the traffic between users and cloud applications. For example, you may want to block file uploads to a personal Box account to prevent data leakage or exfiltration. You can use Netskope’s inline proxy mode to intercept and inspect the traffic between users and Box, and apply granular policies based on user identity, device type, app instance, file metadata, etc. You can also use Netskope’s inline proxy mode to provide user alerts when sensitive information is posted in Slack. For example, you may want to warn users when they share credit card numbers or social security numbers in Slack channels or messages. You can use Netskope’s steering client to redirect the traffic between users and Slack to Netskope’s inline proxy for inspection and enforcement. You can also use Netskope’s DLP engine to detect sensitive data patterns and apply actions such as alerting or blocking. References: Netskope Inline Proxy ModeNetskope Steering Client [Netskope DLP Engine]

The statement that accurately describes the difference between Source IP (Egress) and Source IP (User) address is: Source IP (Egress) is the public IP address of your Internet edge router while Source IP (User) is the address assigned to the endpoint. Source IP (Egress) is the IP address that is visible to external networks when you send traffic from your network to the Internet. It is usually the IP address of your Internet edge router or gateway that performs NAT (Network Address Translation). Source IP (User) is the IP address that is assigned to your endpoint device, such as a laptop or a smartphone, within your network. It is usually a private IP address that is not routable on the Internet. You can use these two criteria to filter traffic based on where it originates from within your network or outside your network. References: Source Address / Source Port vs Destination Address / Destination PortHow to explain Source IP Address, Destination IP Address & Service in easy way

To collect the logs from the client machine when you have an issue with the Netskope client connecting to the tenant, two ways that you can use are: from the Netskope client UI About page and from the command line using the nsdiag command. From the Netskope client UI About page, you can click on the “Collect Logs” button to generate a zip file containing all the relevant logs and configuration files from the client machine. You can then send this zip file to Netskope support for troubleshooting. From the command line, you can use the nsdiag command with various options to collect different types of logs and diagnostic information from the client machine. For example, you can use nsdiag -l to collect all logs, nsdiag -c to collect configuration files, nsdiag -t to collect traffic statistics, etc. You can also use nsdiag -h to see all available options and usage instructions. You can then send the output files to Netskope support for troubleshooting. References: Netskope Client Configuration overviewInstall and Test the Client - Netskope Knowledge Portal

To set up a Netskope API connection to Box, two actions that must be completed are: authorize the Netskope application in Box and configure Box in SaaS API Data protection. Authorizing the Netskope application in Box allows Netskope to access the Box API and perform out-of-band inspection and enforcement of policies on the data that is already stored in Box. Configuring Box in SaaS API Data protection allows you to specify the Box instance details, such as domain name, admin email, etc., and enable features such as retroactive scan, event stream, etc. References: Authorize Netskope Introspection App on Box Enterprise - Netskope Knowledge PortalConfigure Box Instance in Netskope UI - Netskope Knowledge Portal

A limitation of using a legacy proxy compared to Netskope’s solution is that to enforce policies, traffic needs to traverse back through a customer’s on-premises security stack. This creates latency, bandwidth, and scalability issues for remote users and cloud applications. Netskope’s solution, on the other hand, leverages a cloud-native architecture that provides high-performance and scalable inspection of traffic from any location and device. References: [Netskope Architecture Overview]

The Building Security in Maturity Model (BSIMM) is a framework that measures and compares the security activities of different organizations. It helps organizations to assess their current security practices and identify areas for improvement. ISO 27001 is an international standardthat specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and improving an information security management system. It helps organizations to manage their information security risks and demonstrate their compliance with best practices. Data Science Council of America (DASCA) is not a security framework, but a credentialing body for data science professionals. NIST Cybersecurity Framework (NIST CSF) is a security framework, but it is not commonly used to assess and validate a vendor’s security practices, as it is more focused on improving the cybersecurity of critical infrastructure sectors in the United States. References: [BSIMM], [ISO 27001], [DASCA], [NIST CSF].

Three security controls that are offered by the Netskope Cloud platform are: C. cloud security posture management, E. threat protection, and B. data loss prevention for SMTP.

• Cloud security posture management is a service that provides continuous assessment and remediation of public cloud deployments for risks, threats, and compliance issues. Netskope CSPM leverages the APIs available from cloud service providers such as AWS, Azure, and GCP to scan the cloud infrastructure for misconfigurations, such as insecure permissions, open ports, unencrypted data, etc. Netskope CSPM also provides security posture policies, profiles, and rules that can be customized to match the security standards and best practices of the organization or industry.
• Threat protection is a capability to detect and block malware, ransomware, phishing, and other cyber threats that may compromise cloud data or users. Netskope threat protection uses advanced techniques such as machine learning, sandboxing, threat intelligence, and behavioral analysis to identify and prevent malicious activities in real time.Netskope threat protection also integrates with third-party solutions such as antivirus engines, firewalls, SIEMs, etc., to provide comprehensive defense across the cloud and web1.
• Data loss prevention for SMTP is a feature that allows you to protect sensitive data that is sent or received via email. Netskope DLP for SMTP can scan email messages and attachments for predefined or custom data patterns, such as credit card numbers, social security numbers, health records, etc., and apply appropriate actions, such as block, quarantine, encrypt, notify, etc., based on the DLP policies.Netskope DLP for SMTP can also support multiple email domains and routing rules for different groups of users2.

Netskope provides both inline and API protection for cloud applications and web traffic. Inline protection refers to the real-time inspection and enforcement of policies on the traffic between users and cloud applications, using Netskope’s inline proxy mode. API protection refers to the retrospective inspection and enforcement of policies on the data that is already stored in cloud applications, using Netskope’s API connectors. Two functions that are available for both inline and API protection are threat protection and DLP. Threat protection is the capability to detect and block malware, ransomware, phishing, and other cyber threats that may compromise cloud data or users. DLP is the capability to detect and protect sensitive data, such as personal information, intellectual property, or regulated data, that may be exposed or leaked through cloud applications. References: Netskope Inline Proxy ModeNetskope API ProtectionNetskope Threat ProtectionNetskope DLP Engine

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

SaaS API-enabled Protection is a primary function in the Netskope platform that allows customers to connect their sanctioned SaaS applications to Netskope using out-of-band API connections. This enables customers to find sensitive content, enforce near real-time policycontrols, and quarantine malware in their SaaS applications without affecting user experience or performance. If you want to use an out-of-band API connection into your sanctioned Microsoft 365 OneDrive for Business application to achieve these goals, you should use SaaS API-enabled Protection as the primary function in the Netskope platform. DLP forensics, Risk Insights, and IaaS API-enabled Protection are not primary functions in the Netskope platform that can be used to connect your application to Netskope. References: [Netskope SaaS API-enabled Protection].
