New Features And Enhancements In Release 104.0.0

Salesforce Key Management is a feature that allows customers to use Salesforce’s Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) feature to encrypt Salesforce data at rest. Netskope today provides customers the option of rotating/managing these keys from the Netskope console. Note that this feature is now deprecated, which means Netskope will not support this capability in any new commercial or federal Netskope DC.

Note that deprecation of this feature only means that you cannot rotate/manage the encryption keys from Netskope. You can continue using the BYOK feature within Salesforce without impacting Netskope’s API Data Protection for Salesforce.

Fine prints as follows:

In Microsoft Office 365 SharePoint Sites, there is an option to require check out of files before editing. If this setting is enabled on a SharePoint site, Netskope API Data Protection can quarantine the file but fails to overwrite the original file with a tombstone file. To gracefully handle this kind of a scenario, API Data Protection now provides administrators to identify such files within the Incidents and Alerts UI pages. Following two changes are added in the Netskope tenant UI:

Enhanced the Dropbox connector to add support (activity coverage) for Dropbox paper module.

When accessing Office365 from an unmanaged device, users are required to perform additional authentications via RaaS(Reverse proxy as a service). Release 104 introduces vanity URLS that provide access to supported Office365 apps via single authentication and also allowing DLP / TSS controls on post operations. The vanity URL feature is supported only for the myapps.microsoft.com domain.

Endpoint DLP now supports macOS. The macOS Endpoint DLP agent is installed with STAgent that supports macOS Big Sur (11), Monterey (12), and Ventura (13) versions along with support for content control and device control policies.

Endpoint DLP Printer Device Control is now available. Policies can be created to restrict or allow printer access based on attributes of the printer or connection.

Endpoint DLP Windows-only features are now labeled as such in the UI.

The Offline Event column was removed from the Endpoint Events. This column was not intuitively named and could cause confusion.

Added a new executable file to Endpoint DLP called epdlp_diag.exe. It is installed in C:Program FilesNetskopeEPDLP which can be used to return Endpoint DLP running state.

Starting this release, the Compliance page under API-enabled Protection > Security Posture (Next Gen) is now renamed to Findings. To learn more: View Security Posture Findings.

Starting this release, Next Generation SSPM for Workday is now declared General Availability (GA). Next Generation SSPM for Workday now supports new set of rules and entities.

Improved data generation for the following Transaction Event Format 3 fields:

In the SSL Decryption policy, if an app that shares a common domain with another app is selected, the admin is notified with a pop-up. If the admin clicks Proceed, then the other apps with the same domain are also selected. If the admin clicks Cancel, the apps are removed from the SSL Decryption policy. For Categories and App Suites with apps that have common domains, users are warned with a pop-up.

In SWG, we can now disable longest prefix match when matching incoming URLs against URL lists. Incoming URLs can now match against all URL lists with a positive match criteria. This is different from the current behavior of matching with the URL list with the longest prefix match.

This release includes enhancements in Publisher software to improve the speed of data transfer over NPA.

Enhanced the user experience for clipboard operations in isolation. Managed the clipboard operations performed by any button present on the isolated webpage in the RBI session, and also the browser’s menu.

Prior to this enhancement, RBI supported clipboard operations were triggered by keyboard shortcuts and the RBI context menu. With this enhancement, all clipboard operations are now intercepted and handled by RBI regardless of how the user initiates the action.

On the Malware page, Netskope displays a Not detected message for advanced threat engines when they don’t trigger detection alerts.

Netskope Client introduces a new tamperproof capability to protect Netskope processes, folders, files, and registry keys from renaming, modification, or deletion.

In conjunction with this feature, when password protection feature is enabled, it stops the users from uninstalling or stopping the Netskope Client service. You can enable this feature in the Tamperproof tab in Client Configurations under Settings > Security Cloud Platform > Netskope Client > Devices  and is available for Windows 10 or higher versions.
