A Netskope Virtual Appliance is a software-based appliance that can be deployed on-premises or in the cloud to provide various functions and features for the Netskope Security Cloud platform. One use for deploying a Netskope Virtual Appliance is as an endpoint for Netskope Private Access (NPA), which is a service that allows users to securely access private applications without exposing them to the internet or using VPNs. Another use for deploying a Netskope Virtual Appliance is as a Secure Forwarder to steer traffic from on-premises devices or networks to the Netskope platform for inspection and policy enforcement. Using a Netskope Virtual Appliance as a local reverse-proxy to secure a SaaS application or as a log parser to discover in-use cloud applications are not valid uses, as these functions are performed by other components of the Netskope Security Cloud platform, such as the Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) or the Cloud XD engine. References: Netskope Security Cloud Operation & Administration (NSCO&A) - Classroom Course, Module 2: Architecture Overview; [Netskope Private Access]; [Netskope Secure Forwarder].

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].

To enable Netskope to gain visibility into your users’ cloud application activities in an inline mode, you need to use a deployment method that allows Netskope to intercept and inspect the traffic between your users and the cloud applications in real time. Two deployment methods that would match your inline use case are: use a forward proxy and use a reverse proxy. A forward proxy is a deployment method that allows Netskope to act as a proxy server for your users’ outbound traffic to the internet. You can configure your users’ devices or browsers to send their traffic to Netskope’s proxy server, either manually or using PAC files or VPN profiles. A reverse proxy is a deployment method that allows Netskope to act as a proxy server for your users’ inbound traffic from specific cloud applications. You can configure your cloud applications to redirect their traffic to Netskope’s proxy server, either using custom URLs or certificates. Using an API connector or a log parser are not deployment methods that would match your inline use case, as they are more suitable for out-of-band modes that rely on accessing data and events from the cloud applications using APIs or logs, rather than intercepting traffic in real time. References: [Netskope Inline CASB], Netskope Security Cloud Operation & Administration (NSCO&A) - Classroom Course, Module 3: Steering Configuration, Lesson 4: Forward Proxy and Lesson 5: Reverse Proxy.

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].

 If you are deploying TLS support for real-time Web and SaaS transactions, then you need to use secure implementation methods that ensure the highest level of encryption and security for yourtraffic. Two secure implementation methods in this scenario are: support TLS 1.2 only when 1.3 is not supported by the server and require TLS 1.3 for every server that accepts it. TLS stands for Transport Layer Security, which is a protocol that provides secure communication over the internet by encrypting and authenticating data exchanged between two parties. TLS 1.3 is the latest version of TLS, which offers several improvements over TLS 1.2, such as faster handshake, stronger encryption algorithms, better forward secrecy, and reduced attack surface. Therefore, it is recommended to use TLS 1.3 whenever possible for real-time Web and SaaS transactions, as it provides better security and performance than TLS 1.2. However, some servers may not support TLS 1.3 yet, so in those cases, it is acceptable to use TLS 1.2 as a fallback option, as it is still considered secure and widely adopted. Bypassing TLS 1.3 because it is not widely adopted or downgrading to TLS 1.2 whenever possible are not secure implementation methods in this scenario, as they would compromise the security and performance of your traffic by using an older or weaker version of TLS than necessary. References: [TLS], [TLS 1.3].
