• Security Operations, Integrations, and Reporting
• Monitor Netskope alerts and events for data exfiltration, policy violations, malware, phishing, suspicious SaaS activity, and risky user behavior.
• Leverage Netskope behavior analytics (UEBA), risk scoring, and the Cloud Confidence Index (CCI) to surface anomalous activity, compromised accounts, insider risk, and high-risk applications.
• Integrate Netskope logs, alerts, and workflows with SIEM, SOAR, ITSM, EDR, identity, and ticketing platforms.
• Support incident response investigations by correlating Netskope activity with identity, endpoint, email, network, and cloud telemetry.
• Develop operational metrics and reports for cloud risk, blocked threats, DLP activity, policy effectiveness, application usage, and executive visibility.
• Evaluate new Netskope capabilities and recommend improvements to strengthen SSE/SASE architecture, user experience, and data protection.
