To protect your users from malicious scripts that may be downloaded from websites, you need to use technologies that can detect and prevent malware, ransomware, phishing, and other advanced threats in web traffic. Two technologies that form a part of Netskope’s Threat Protection module, which is a feature in the Netskope platform that provides these capabilities, are sandbox and heuristics. Sandbox is a technology that allows Netskope to analyze suspicious files or URLs in a virtual environment isolated from the rest of the network. It simulates the execution of the files or URLs and observes their behavior and impact on the system. It then generates a verdict based on the analysis and blocks any malicious files or URLsfrom reaching your users or devices. Heuristics is a technology that allows Netskope to identify unknown or emerging threats based on their characteristics or patterns, rather than relying on predefined signatures or rules. It uses machine learning and artificial intelligence to analyze various attributes of files or URLs, such as file type, size, entropy, metadata, code structure, etc., and assigns a risk score based on the analysis. It then blocks any files or URLs that exceed a certain risk threshold from reaching your users or devices. A log parser or DLP are not technologies that form a part of Netskope’s Threat Protection module, as they are more related to discovering cloud applications or protecting sensitive data. References: [Netskope Threat Protection], Netskope Security Cloud Operation & Administration (NSCO&A) - Classroom Course, Module 9: Threat Protection.

To prevent Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attacks on an encrypted website or application, one method that you can use is certificate pinning. Certificate pinning is a technique that restricts which certificates are considered valid for a particular website or application, limiting risk. Instead of allowing any trusted certificate to be used, operators "pin" the certificate authority (CA) issuer(s), public keys or even end-entity certificates of their choice. Certificate pinning helps to prevent MITM attacks by validating the server certificates against a hardcoded list of certificates in the website or application. If an attacker tries to intercept or modify the traffic using a fraudulent or compromised certificate, it will be rejected by the website or application as invalid, even if it is signed by a trusted CA. References: Certificate pinning - IBMCertificate and Public Key Pinning | OWASP Foundation

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].

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

 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

Two statements that describe a website categorized as a domain generated algorithm (DGA) are: The website is used to hide a command-and-control server and the domain was created by a program. A domain generated algorithm (DGA) is a technique used by cyber attackers to generate new domain names and IP addresses for malware’s command and control servers. Executed in a manner that seems random, it makes it nearly impossible for threat hunters to detect and contain the attack. A command-and-control server is a server that communicates with malware installed on infected machines and sends commands or updates to them. A program is a piece of software that performs a specific task or function. A domain generated algorithm is implemented by a program that runs on the attacker’s machine or the malware itself, and produces a large number of domain names based on some logic, such as date, time, seed, dictionary, etc. References: Domain generation algorithmAmong cyber-attack techniques, what is a DGA?

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

To mitigate malicious scripts from being downloaded into your corporate devices every time a user goes to a website, you need to use Netskope’s threat protection features to block or isolate potentially harmful web traffic. Two actions that would help you accomplish this task while allowing the user to work are: block malware detected on download activity for all remaining categories and block known bad websites and enable RBI to uncategorized domains. The first action will prevent any files that contain malware from being downloaded to your devices from any website category, except those that are explicitly allowed or excluded by your policies. The second action will prevent any websites that are classified as malicious or phishing by Netskope from being accessed by your users and enable Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) to uncategorized domains, which are domains that have not been assigned a category by Netskope. RBI is a feature that allows users to browse websites in a virtual browser hosted in the cloud, without exposing their devices to any scripts or content from the website. Allowing the user to browse uncategorized domains but restrict edit activities or allowing a limited amount of domains and block everything else are not effective actions, as they may either limit the user’s productivity or expose them to unknown risks. References: [Netskope Threat Protection], [Netskope Remote Browser Isolation].

A SAML reverse proxy is a service that acts as an intermediary between a SAML service provider (SP) and one or more SAML identity providers (IdPs). It can perform various functions, such as authentication, authorization, load balancing, caching, etc. One scenario where you would use a SAML reverse proxy is when there are multiple SAML IdPs in use and the SAML reverse proxy can help federate them all together. For example, suppose you have an internal application that needs to authenticate users from different domains or organizations, each with their own SAML IdP. Instead of configuring the application to trust each IdP separately, you can use a SAML reverse proxy to act as a single SP for the application and a single IdP for the users. The SAML reverse proxy can then redirect the users to their respective IdPs for authentication and relay the SAML assertions back to the application. This way, you can simplify the integration and management of multiple SAML IdPs and provide a seamless user experience. References: SAML Reverse ProxyWhat is application proxy & SAML SSO?

Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is a cloud-based architecture that combines various cloud security and infrastructure enablement technologies into a unified platform that delivers security and networking services from the edge of the network. Two of these technologies are Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) and Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB). ZTNA is a technology that provides secure access to private applications without exposing them to the internet or using VPNs. It uses identity-based policies and encryption to grant granular access to authorized users and devices, regardless of their location or network. CASB is a technology that provides visibility and control over cloud applications (SaaS) used by users and devices. It uses API connections or inline proxies to inspect and enforce policies on data and activities in cloud applications, such as data loss prevention, threat protection, or compliance. Distributed Denial of Service Protection (DDoS) and Unified Threat Management (UTM) are not technologies that SASE combines into its unified platform, although they may be related or integrated with some of its components. References: [SASE], [ZTNA], [CASB].

When using an out-of-band API connection with your sanctioned cloud service, two capabilities available to the administrator are: to quarantine malware and to find sensitive content. An out-of-band API connection is a method of integrating Netskope with your cloud service provider using the APIs exposed by the cloud service. This allows Netskope to access the data that is already stored in the cloud service and perform retrospective inspection and enforcement ofpolicies. One capability that the administrator can use with an out-of-band API connection is to quarantine malware. This means that Netskope can scan the files in the cloud service for malware, ransomware, phishing, and other threats, and move them to a quarantine folder or delete them if they are found to be malicious. Another capability that the administrator can use with an out-of-band API connection is to find sensitive content. This means that Netskope can scan the files in the cloud service for sensitive data, such as personal information, intellectual property, or regulated data, and apply data loss prevention (DLP) policies to protect them. For example, Netskope can encrypt, redact, or watermark the files that contain sensitive content, or notify the administrator or the file owner about the exposure. References: Netskope API ProtectionReal-time Control and Data Protection via Out-of-Band API

An App Instance is a feature in the Netskope platform that allows you to define and identify different instances of the same cloud application based on the domain name or URL. For example, you can define an App Instance for your enterprise Google Drive instance (such as drive.google.com/a/yourcompany.com) and another App Instance for your personal Google Drive instance (such as drive.google.com). This way, you can differentiate between them and apply different policies and actions based on the App Instance. You would want to define an App Instance to achieve this level of granularity and control over your cloud application activities. Creating an API Data Protection Policy for a personal Box instance, enabling the instance_id attribute in the advanced search field, or differentiating between an enterprise Google Drive instance vs. an enterprise Box instance are not valid reasons to define an AppInstance, as they are either unrelated or irrelevant to the App Instance feature. References: Netskope Security Cloud Operation & Administration (NSCO&A) - Classroom Course, Module 5: Real-Time Policies, Lesson 4: App Instances.

The three technologies that describe the primary cloud service models as defined by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) are Platform as a Service (PaaS), Software as a Service (SaaS), and Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). These service models are based on the type of computing capability that is provided by the cloud provider to the cloud consumer over a network. According to NIST, these service models have the following definitions:

• Platform as a Service (PaaS): The capability provided to the consumer is to deploy onto the cloud infrastructure consumer-created or acquired applications created using programming languages, libraries, services, and tools supported by the provider. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including network, servers, operating systems, or storage, but has control over the deployed applications and possibly configuration settings for the application-hosting environment.
• Software as a Service (SaaS): The capability provided to the consumer is to use the provider’s applications running on a cloud infrastructure. The applications are accessible from various client devices through either a thin client interface, such as a web browser (e.g., web-based email), or a program interface. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including network, servers, operating systems, storage, or even individual application capabilities, with the possible exception of limited user-specific application configuration settings.
• Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): The capability provided to the consumer is to provision processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental computing resources where the consumer is able to deploy and run arbitrary software, which can include operating systems and applications. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, and deployed applications; and possibly limited control of select networking components (e.g., host firewalls).

The term that correctly defines the Zero Trust security model is least privilege access. The Zero Trust security model is a modern security strategy based on the principle: never trust, always verify. Instead of assuming everything behind the corporate firewall is safe, the Zero Trust model assumes breach and verifies each request as though it originates from an open network. One of the core principles of the Zero Trust model is to use least privilege access, which means granting users or systems only the minimum level of access they need to perform their tasks, and only for a limited time. This helps reduce the attack surface and minimize the impact of a potential breach. References: Zero Trust Security - microsoft.comWhat is Zero Trust Security? Principles of the Zero Trust Model

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

In this scenario, there are three probable causes for the issue of users not being able to access external websites from their browsers after attempting to steer traffic to Netskope using GRE tunnels. One cause is that the configured GRE peer in the Netskope platform is incorrect, which means that the Netskope POP that is supposed to receive the GRE traffic from the customer’s network is not matching the IP address of the customer’s router that is sending the GRE traffic. This will result in a failure to establish a GRE tunnel between the customer and Netskope. Another cause is that the corporate firewall might be blocking GRE traffic, which means that the firewall rules are not allowing the GRE protocol (IP protocol number 47) or the UDP port 4789 (for VXLAN encapsulation) to pass through. This will result in a failure to send or receive GRE packets between the customer and Netskope. A third cause is that the route map was applied to the wrong router interface, which means that the configuration that specifies which traffic should be steered to Netskope using GRE tunnels was not applied to the correct interface on the customer’s router. This will result in a failure to steer the desired traffic to Netskope. The pre-shared key for the GRE tunnel is incorrect is not a probable cause for this issue, as GRE tunnelsdo not use pre-shared keys for authentication or encryption. Netskope does support GRE tunnels, so this is not a cause for this issue either. References: [Netskope Secure Forwarder], Netskope Security Cloud Operation & Administration (NSCO&A) - Classroom Course, Module 3: Steering Configuration, Lesson 3: Secure Forwarder.

If you consume application infrastructure (middleware) capabilities by a third-party provider, then the cloud service model that you are using in this scenario is PaaS, which stands for Platform as a Service. PaaS is a cloud service model that provides customers with a platform to develop, run, and manage applications without having to deal with the underlying infrastructure or software. PaaS typically includes middleware capabilities such as databases, web servers, development tools, integration services, etc., that customers can use to build and deploy their applications faster and easier. MaaS, DaaS, and SaaS are not cloud service models that match this scenario, as they stand for different types of services. MaaS stands for Monitoring as a Service, which is a service that provides customers with tools to monitor and manage their cloud resources and performance. DaaS stands for Desktop as a Service, which is a service that provides customers with virtual desktops that they can access from any device or location. SaaS stands for Software as a Service, which is a service that provides customers with software applications that they can use over the internet without installing or maintaining them. References: [PaaS], [MaaS], [DaaS], [SaaS].

When working with traffic from applications with pinned certificates, you should add an exception to the steering configuration to bypass them. Pinned certificates are a security technique that prevents man-in-the-middle attacks by validating the server certificates against a hardcoded list of certificates in the application. If you try to intercept or inspect the traffic from such applications, they will reject the connection or display an error message. Therefore, you should add the domains used by certificate-pinned applications as exceptions in your steering configuration, so that they are not steered to Netskope for analysis and enforcement. References: Certificate Pinned ApplicationsCreating a Steering Configuration
