Free Access Netskope NSK300 New Release

Fingerprinting would satisfy the requirement to prevent the exfiltration of sensitive Personally Identifiable Information (PII) data by employees and contractors. Fingerprinting is a data protection technique that involves creating a unique digital representation of sensitive data. This allows for the detection of any exact or partial matches of the fingerprinted data leaving the company’s environment, thereby preventing unauthorized data exfiltration.It is particularly effective in scenarios where multiple individuals require access to sensitive data, as it can protect against both inadvertent and malicious attempts to move data outside of authorized channels1.

References: Netskope’s Data Loss Prevention (DLP) capabilities include fingerprinting as a method to secure sensitive data consistently across the enterprise1.The Netskope Knowledge Portal provides further information on how to enable and configure fingerprinting and other DLP settings to protect sensitive PII data2.

For a new Netskope tenant provisioned, to create a secure tenant configuration, you should consider changing the following default settings:

• B. Change Untrusted Root Certificate to Block: This setting will ensure that any traffic coming from an untrusted root certificate is blocked, which is a critical security measure to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks and other types of cyber threats1.
• D. Change “Disallow concurrent logins by an Admin” to Enabled: This setting will prevent multiple concurrent logins by the same admin account, which is an important security control to mitigate the risk of unauthorized access.If an admin’s credentials are compromised, this setting will help limit the potential damage by ensuring that only one session can be active at a time1.

These changes are part of the recommended security hardening guidelines for Netskope tenants to enhance the overall security posture of the tenant environment.

References: The recommendations for changing default settings for a secure tenant configuration are based on Netskope’s security hardening guidelines, which provide detailed instructions on how to enhance the security of Netskope products and components deployed in customer environments1.

• When a user is on-premises at the enterprise and accesses an application that is IP restricted, the source IP for traffic to this application is the Enterprise Egress IPv4 address.
• The Enterprise Egress IP represents the external IP address of the enterprise network as seen by external services or applications.
• This IP address is used for communication between the user’s device and external resources, including applications that are IP restricted. References:
• The answer is based on general knowledge of networking concepts and how IP addresses are used in enterprise environments.

In the scenario where users are unable to access an application through Netskope Private Access, and after verifying that the Real-time Protection policy allows access, the application is steered for the users, and it is reachable from internal machines, the next step is to verify the application’s reachability through the Netskope Publisher. The two tools in the Netskope UI that would be used to accomplish this task are:

A. Reachability Via Publisher in the App Definitions page - This tool allows you to check if the application is reachable through the configured Publishers. It is essential toensure that the application’s connectivity is intact and that there are no issues with the Publishers themselves.

B. Troubleshooter tool in the App Definitions page - The Troubleshooter tool can help diagnose and resolve issues related to application reachability. It provides insights into potential problems and offers guidance on how to fix them.

These tools are designed to assist in troubleshooting and ensuring that applications are accessible through Netskope Private Access.
