Netskope secures SaaS apps with genAI

Netskope recently introduced generative AI and software-as-a-service security enhancements in its Netskope One secure access security edge (SASE) platform, which industry watchers say will help enterprise IT organizations reduce genAI data leakage and better categorize SaaS applications.

The enhanced platform includes features that can secure the usage of generative AI applications, the company says, and provide information on specific risks. Using its data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities, Netskope One can also identify new risks, reduce security gaps, lower cost, address complexity, and increase protection.

“Netskope One is the first converged platform that uses AI to keep pace with the SaaS and genAI app explosion, categorizing new apps and their risks faster, more granularly, and more accurately than any other solution in the market,” said John Martin, chief product officer of Netskope, in a statement. Netskope incorporated genAI algorithms into its cloud access security broker (CASB) module, which can provide automatic risk scoring of new and previously unseen SaaS apps and more.
