A tombstone file is a placeholder file that replaces the original file when it is moved to quarantine by a Netskope policy. The tombstone file contains information about the original file, such as its name, size, type, owner, and the reason why it was quarantined. The tombstone file also provides a link to the Netskope UI where the administrator or the file owner can view more details about the incident and take appropriate actions, such as restoring or deleting the file. The purpose of using a tombstone file is to preserve the metadata and location of the original file, as well as to notify the users about the quarantine action and how to access the file if needed. References: Threat Protection - Netskope Knowledge PortalNetskope threat protection - Netskope

To discover GDPR data publicly exposed in Microsoft 365, Salesforce, and Slack-sanctioned cloud applications, you need to use a deployment model that allows Netskope to access and scan the data stored in these applications using out-of-band API connections. The deployment model that would match this requirement is API-enabled protection, which is a feature in the Netskope platform that allows you to connect your sanctioned cloud applications to Netskope using API connectors. This enables you to discover sensitive data, enforce near real-time policy controls, and quarantine malware in your cloud applications without affecting user experience or performance. You can use Netskope’s data loss prevention (DLP) engine to scan for GDPR data in your cloud applications and identify any public exposure or sharing settings that may violate the regulation. A reverse proxy, an on-premises appliance, or an inline protection are not deployment models that would help you discover GDPR data publicly exposed in your sanctioned cloud applications, as they are more suitable for inline modes that rely on intercepting traffic to and from these applications in real time, rather than accessing data stored in these applications using APIs. References: [Netskope SaaS API-enabled Protection], [Netskope Data Loss Prevention].

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
