Cloud Exchange (CE) includes four primary modules that can be enabled or disabled as needed: Log Shipper, Ticket Orchestrator, Threat Exchange, and Risk Exchange. CE also includes two beta modules: Custom File Classification and Exact Data Match.
CE is supported by Netskope, but individual plugins leverage functionality provided by 3rd-party partners. While CE comes at no cost to users, CE will only work if the attached system(s) is configured with entitlements that enable the applicable API queries and data flows.
Each plugin’s software and subscription requirements are defined in each respective configuration guide. This guide focuses on the complete CE platform with four primary modules and two beta modules (EDM and CFC). There are three privilege levels in CE: Super Admin (full privileges), Custom Admin (mid-range privileges), and Read Only (limited privileges).
