# Netskope

> Netskope is a cloud-native SASE and Zero Trust security platform that provides secure access to web, cloud, and private applications with AI-powered data protection and threat prevention.

Netskope delivers a unified cloud-native platform that converges networking and security services under the Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) and Security Service Edge (SSE) frameworks. Built by engineers from AWS, Palo Alto Networks, Riverbed, Juniper Networks, Cisco, and VMware, the platform is designed to protect users, data, and applications across cloud, web, and private environments. Netskope operates the NewEdge private security cloud, which the company describes as spanning more than 80 regions with nearly 4,000 network adjacencies with large providers like Microsoft and Google.

## What It Is

Netskope One is a single-platform approach to enterprise security and networking that combines SSE, SD-WAN, CASB, Next Gen Secure Web Gateway, Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), Data Loss Prevention (DLP), and AI security capabilities. The platform is built around a Zero Trust Engine that applies continuous, context-aware policy controls across all services. Rather than assembling point products, Netskope positions its offering as one engine, one client, one network, and one console — reducing the operational complexity of managing separate security and networking stacks.

## Platform Architecture

The Netskope One platform is structured around four core components:

- **Zero Trust Engine**: A context-aware policy engine at the center of the platform that enforces adaptive trust controls across SASE, AI security, and data security services.
- **Netskope One Client**: Described by Netskope as the industry's first unified SASE client, combining remote user access to web, cloud, and private apps with endpoint DLP, endpoint SD-WAN, and user coaching in a single agent.
- **NewEdge Network**: Netskope's own private security cloud and network backbone, with full compute SSE stack deployed in every region and backed by SLAs for uptime, processing, and malware capture rate.
- **Netskope One Orchestrator**: A 100% cloud-based console for unified policy management across SSE, SD-WAN, AI security, and data security.

The Agentic Broker and AI Gateway products are designed to provide visibility and control over agentic AI workflows and LLM interactions. AI Guardrails and AI Red Teaming extend policy enforcement and adversarial testing to AI systems. The company frames this as enabling organizations to adopt AI tools without sacrificing data control or security posture.
