When creating a real-time policy for cloud applications, you can use access method and device classification as source criteria, in addition to users, groups, and organizational units. Access method refers to how the user accesses the cloud application, such as browser, sync client, mobile app, etc. Device classification refers to the type of device used by the user, such as managed or unmanaged, Windows or Mac, etc. These criteria can help you define granular policies based on different scenarios and risks.Reference:[Creating Real-Time Policies for Cloud Applications]

A benefit that Netskope instance awareness provides is that it differentiates between an IT managed Google Drive instance versus a personal Google Drive instance. Instance awareness 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 instance for your IT managed Google Drive instance (such as drive.google.com/a/yourcompany.com) and another 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 instance. This can help you prevent data leakage, enforce compliance, or improve visibility for your cloud application activities. Preventing movement of corporate sensitive data to a personal Dropbox account, preventing the user from copying information from a corporate email and pasting it into a GitHub repository, or differentiating between an IT managed Google Drive instance versus an IT managed Box instance are not benefits that Netskope instance awareness provides, as they are either unrelated or irrelevant to the instance awareness feature.Reference:Netskope Security Cloud Operation & Administration (NSCO&A) - Classroom Course, Module 5: Real-Time Policies, Lesson 4: App Instances.

A limitation of using a legacy proxy compared to Netskope's solution is that to enforce policies, traffic needs to traverse back through a customer's on-premises security stack. This creates latency, bandwidth, and scalability issues for remote users and cloud applications. Netskope's solution, on the other hand, leverages a cloud-native architecture that provides high-performance and scalable inspection of traffic from any location and device.Reference:[Netskope Architecture Overview]

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.Reference:Domain generation algorithmAmong cyber-attack techniques, what is a DGA?

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 policy controls, 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.Reference:[Netskope SaaS API-enabled Protection].
