Netskope is currently being used to provide visibility and control into all SaaS usage in the enterprise. One way to get a grasp into the extent of Shadow IT as well as formulating controls to mitigate the risk that would otherwise be unknown, based on the information collected.
- Policies against integrated SaaS applications.
- Visibility into cloud applications usage and risk.
- Cloud Confidence Index (research into security confidence of providers).
Cons
- Infrastructure resilience.
- Growth and scale issues.
- We can see no large percentage of cloud applications that are being used in the enterprise outside of IT knowledge.
- We can now have conversations regarding risk, and consolidation of overlapping applications, reducing risk and expense.
- Allows for IT to assess and mitigate the risk of risky applications or platforms being used and where information may be leaked.
Looked at SkyHigh as well as Cloudlock and felt SkyHigh was the only other leader in the space that was worth serious consideration. Netskope was able to pull out ahead just based on some subjective decisions.
