Netskope announced enhancements to its Netskope One Enterprise Browser, further extending the company’s leadership in unified data security to add more key use cases requested by customers. By delivering Enterprise Browser fully integrated with the Netskope One platform’s Security Service Edge (SSE) capabilities, Netskope enables organisations to increase productivity and streamline the security of how unmanaged devices and temporary workers connect to websites, applications, and other resources.
Bring-your-own device (BYOD) policies and the temporary work requirements of contractors are two of many use cases that can create security risks for businesses based on access to data. Enterprise browser functionality that is well integrated with a full SSE offering means that organisations can count on data security not only when users interact with cloud and SaaS apps, but also to prevent data leakage both to apps and unmanaged endpoint devices, ensuring SSE adaptive policy controls are consistently applied.
“Enterprise browser functionality should be delivered as part of a unified data security solution,” said John Martin, Chief Product Officer, Netskope. “At Netskope, our strategy has always been to enable modern data security using the broadest and deepest protection from a single, holistic platform. As we shared our continued expansion plans with security and networking leaders over the past year, it quickly became clear that enterprise browser capabilities are best when integrated at the architecture level, making use of full SSE data security and adaptive policy controls, not just as a product add-on.”
Netskope helps organisations modernise their businesses by converging critical security, network, and analytics services into a powerful, cost-efficient platform, Netskope One. By integrating Enterprise Browser with the full SSE capabilities of the Netskope One platform, organisations accelerate time-to-value and operational efficiency, especially with the ability to extend current SSE application control policies to unmanaged device users and temporary users such as contractors working as part of a merger & acquisition process.
