Netskope

Netskope is a market-leading Security Service Edge (SSE) platform designed to provide visibility, real-time data protection, and threat defense when accessing cloud services, websites, and private applications. Built on the NewEdge global private cloud infrastructure, Netskope offers a single-pass architecture that performs heavy-duty security processing (including SSL/TLS decryption) at the edge, ensuring minimal latency. By 2026, Netskope has fully integrated SkopeAI, a suite of deep learning and generative AI capabilities that automate risk assessment for over 80,000 SaaS applications and provide advanced data loss prevention (DLP) for GenAI tools like ChatGPT and Claude. The platform is architected to address the 'blind spots' of traditional legacy firewalls and web gateways, offering granular control over user activities rather than just IP addresses or domains. It is positioned as the primary solution for Fortune 500 enterprises transitioning from legacy hardware to a cloud-native Zero Trust architecture, focusing heavily on protecting sensitive data in a decentralized work environment.
