As enterprises continue to re-engineer their infrastructure to enable secure productivity for workforces, wherever they may be, Netskope is deepening its alliances with global system integrators who have the experience and worldwide presence to guide those digital transformation projects.
Netskope Threat Labs publishes a monthly summary blog post of the top threats we are tracking on the Netskope platform. The purpose of this post is to provide strategic, actionable intelligence on active threats against enterprise users worldwide.
It’s not news that cybersecurity is now a board-level imperative. But with all the talk about that, here’s something we don’t talk about enough: board directors and other senior executives might know they need to have these conversations, but in many cases are still struggling with how to have them in a productive way, especially if they aren’t technical or haven’t spent any real time in a technology role.
When talking to infrastructure and operations teams, one common concern when moving to a SASE architecture is the loss of visibility and control that they have historically been accustomed to. Overnight traffic destined for critical business applications, both private and public, routes through what is often seen as a black box, or in today’s world, more of a “gray cloud.”
For infrastructure and operations (I&O) teams, the transition from legacy architectures to a modern zero trust architecture is far from straightforward. Teams often face a complex patchwork of fragmented and siloed systems of different vintages, along with the challenge of managing dozens of disparate security and networking vendors.
Remote browser isolation (RBI) has its merits for safe access to risky websites and uncategorized content, plus newly registered, observed, and parked domains. Each user gets a remote container where website code and scripts execute so no malware can infect endpoint devices, while also preventing cross-site scripting, web-based attacks, and phishing prevention.
For remote work and hybrid working environments where we are now more dispersed the central collection point for traffic captures is within the cloud. Networking, infrastructure and operations, and security teams require traffic visibility for troubleshooting, performance monitoring, threat detection, discovery of assets, and to address compliance use cases.
Netskope has recently released two exciting enhancements to our Advanced UEBA product. The enhancements are: Together, these two new features streamline operationalization of Advanced UEBA by providing operators alerts when it identifies users exhibiting risky behavior and an at-a-glance summary of the risky activity observed for each user.
As happens every year, Netskopers from across different teams attended the Black Hat USA, BSides, and DEFCON conferences, each coming away with their own take on what was new and exciting. With “Summer Camp” now behind us, we checked in with those folks who attended to share some of what they saw on the floor and what exciting topics stuck out most to them. Here’s what they had to say.
Zoom is firmly a part of everyday work. The modern workspace is no longer a corporate office—it’s anywhere an employee accesses corporate data and applications. With the widespread adoption of hybrid work, there has been a hard shift towards communication platforms like Zoom that allow you to connect, share ideas, and get projects done together in real time, regardless of your physical location.
