  • Federal Transformation with SASE-Based TIC 3.0 Solutions
    WHITE PAPER Federal Transformation with SASE-based TIC 3.0 Solutions Zero-trust access with cloud-native advanced data and threat protection for cloud and web INTRODUCTION The Trusted Internet Connection (TIC) version 3.0 advances to a cloud-first perspective providing federal teams the opportunity to leverage cloud and mobility. While zero-trust network access (ZTNA) can replace legacy VPNs for direct access to private apps and resources in public cloud or private data centers, it requires pairing with cloud-native secure access service edge (SASE) networking and defenses. The difference from legacy web solutions that are cloud hosted—or in the cloud—from defenses designed to decode cloud traffic—or for the cloud—becomes very apparent when analyzing capabilities. At the core of SASE defenses is data context of cloud communications for granular policy controls, plus advanced data and threat protection. Why TIC 3.0? The modernization to version 3.0 of TIC expands upon the original program to drive security standards and leverage advances in technology as agencies adopt mobile and cloud environments. The goal of TIC 3.0 is to secure federal data, networks, and boundaries while providing visibility into agency traffic, including cloud communications. Originally established in 2007, TIC is a federal cybersecurity initiative intended to enhance network and perimeter security across the Federal Government. The Office of Management and Budget (OMB), the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security agency (CISA), and the General Services Administration (GSA) oversee the TIC initiative, setting requirements and an execution framework for agencies to implement a baseline perimeter or multi-boundary security standard.

  • Magic Quadrant for Secure Web Gateways
    15/11/2019 Gartner Reprint Licensed for Distribution Magic Quadrant for Secure Web Gateways Published 11 November 2019 - ID G00380121 - 35 min read By Analysts Lawrence Orans, John Watts, Peter Firstbrook Rapid growth of cloud-based secure web gateway services has become a disruptive force in the market. SWG vendors are adding cloud access security broker, remote browser isolation, firewall and other advanced features to enhance the security of their platforms. Market Definition/Description The rapid adoption of SaaS applications such as Microsoft Office 365, Salesforce and others is driving enterprises to adopt cloud-based secure web gateway (SWG) services. Enterprises are rearchitecting their WANs so that web traffic from remote offices flows directly to the internet (via local internet breakout connections), instead of backhauling it over expensive MPLS links to a centralized data center. As part of this rearchitecture, enterprises are utilizing cloud-based security stacks, so that web traffic from remote offices first flows through a cloud security service (mostly SWG services) before it reaches its final internet destination. A secondary driver for the adoption of these cloud services is the need to protect mobile laptops when they are off the corporate network. We continue to see interest from enterprises seeking to integrate cloud access security broker (CASB) and SWG functionality. SWG vendors are responding to this trend, by either acquiring CASB technology or partnering with CASB providers (mainly Microsoft and its Cloud App Security service) to deliver more tightly integrated CASB and SWG solutions. CASB vendor Netskope is also addressing this trend, as it continues the development of its SWG solution introduced in 2018.

  • 10 Requirements to Safely Say “Yes” to Shadow It Overview
    WHITEPAPER 10 REQUIREMENTS TO SAFELY SAY “YES” TO SHADOW IT OVERVIEW Cloud adoption in the enterprise continues to gain momentum with more than 1,000 cloud services used by employees in a variety of environments from retail to healthcare and everything in between. It turns out that fewer than 5% of these cloud services are sanctioned with IT having administrative access and the ability to manage or secure the deployment. Sanctioned cloud services often include suites like Office 365 and Google G Suite and apps like Salesforce, Box, ServiceNow, and dozens of others. While sanctioned cloud services often garner most of the enterprise focus, more than 95% of cloud services used by enterprises are unsanctioned, shadow IT services and are either shepherded in by lines of business or brought in by individual users that sign up for them because they are easy to access and use. Unsanctioned cloud services often fly under the radar of IT and security personnel. Many of these unsanctioned services are IaaS (think Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform) solutions being used by DevOps teams building apps that access critical systems and contain sensitive resources to support the business. When misconfigured, IaaS resources like S3 buckets in AWS may expose sensitive data out in the open, leaving it easy for malicious actors to take advantage of the data or introduce threats. Given the lack of visibility and control, what does the security team do about shadow IT? Do they take extreme security measures and try to block them using legacy security tools or do they allow their use and hope users stay secure from threats and don’t leak sensitive data? This is a difficult decision and presents a catch-22 between extracting value from the cloud and being secure.

  • Integrating the Netskope Security Cloud with Your Existing Security Infrastructure EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
    WHITE PAPER Integrating the Netskope Security Cloud with Your Existing Security Infrastructure EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The remote workforce has exploded globally with more employees working from home than ever before. On any given day, approximately 60% of workers are remote.1 The overwhelming majority (89%) of enterprise users are in the cloud. More workloads are running in Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) than in the enterprise data center and more applications are delivered via Software as a Service (SaaS) than from the enterprise infrastructure. Embracing the cloud enhances workforce productivity, but brings numerous security challenges. Employees want to use their own devices to access a wide variety of both managed and unmanaged apps, increasing the opportunity for credential-based attacks. Attackers are moving to the cloud to blend in, increase success rates, and evade detections. Nearly half (44%) of threats are cloud-based, with the top techniques being phishing and malware delivery. Cloud services make it all too easy for employees to put sensitive information in the wrong place or share it with the wrong people. Not to be overlooked, malicious insiders or disgruntled employees are more likely to attempt exfiltration of company 20% of users have sensitive sensitive data when outside the office environment. data moving between cloud apps and 37% of this data is With the inversion of the traditional network, involved in data loss prevention where users, data, and apps are now on the outside, violations. traditional approaches to security fall short.
