Our take

As more and more businesses switch to the cloud, there is a growing concern over data breaches and outages, and companies need to invest more in stabilising their security tools. Netskope is a leader in cloud security, helping the world’s largest organisations take full advantage of the cloud and web without sacrificing their resilience to attacks.

The company's patented Cloud XD technology eliminates security blind spots, with the capability to quickly target and control activities across thousands of cloud services and millions of websites. With full control from one cloud, users benefit from 360-degree data protection that guards data everywhere, with advanced threat protection that stops more elusive attacks.

At the beginning of 2023, Netskope raised $401 million in funding that has been used to advance its secure access service edge (SASE) efforts. It continues to release new products, as well as report on the development of the cyberthreat landscape, with the potential to become a driving force and voice for improved cloud security.
