Data protection and governance across Cloud, SaaS and hybrid environments with Security Edge and Netskope

August 27, 2025

In an environment where data is distributed across SaaS applications, cloud infrastructures, and on-premises services, ensuring data security and governance has become a complex challenge. To address this reality, we integrate Netskope technology through our Security Edge service, delivering a comprehensive solution that combines:

Inline DLP for real-time traffic control.
API-based DLP for visibility and protection of data in SaaS applications.
DSPM (Data Security Posture Management) for advanced data management across Cloud, on-premise, and hybrid architectures.

■ This combination enables unified data protection and governance, covering everything from cloud applications to local enterprise databases, delivering visibility, control, and regulatory compliance.

Data protection with Inline DLP and API-based DLP

The data protection service from Netskope, integrated into Security Edge, provides comprehensive data defense through a dual approach:

Inline DLP

Real-time inspection of data traffic, preventing data leaks and unauthorized access.
Granular application control, blocking the use of unauthorized services for sensitive data.
Shadow IT visibility, identifying unsanctioned apps and services used outside corporate control.

API-based DLP

Direct analysis and protection of data stored in SaaS applications such as Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, or Salesforce.
Detection of insecure configurations and improper file sharing, even retrospectively.
Context-aware, adaptive security policies based on data sensitivity and usage scenarios.

■ This approach ensures end-to-end data security, from the moment data is created or transferred to its storage in cloud repositories or SaaS apps.

DSPM: Visibility and control, wherever your data resides

Netskope’s Data Security Posture Management (DSPM), as part of Security Edge, delivers a holistic approach to data risk management, providing:

Complete visibility of sensitive data across public and private clouds, and on-premises services.
Automated classification of information based on criticality and applicable regulations such as GDPR, PCI-DSS, HIPAA.
Continuous risk assessment and early detection of accidental exposures or unauthorized access.
Protection of both structured and unstructured data, covering a broad range of information sources.

■ By spanning both cloud environments and local infrastructures, DSPM within our Security Edge solution ensures organizations maintain a consistent security posture—no matter where their data resides.
