Netskope is a leading Security Service Edge and SASE provider that went public on NASDAQ (NTSK) in September 2025 at a valuation of approximately $7.3 billion, raising over $900 million in one of the year’s largest cybersecurity IPOs. The company’s Intelligent SSE platform provides unified cloud access security, zero trust network access, secure web gateway, and data loss prevention through a single cloud-delivered architecture.
Intelligent SSE Platform
The core platform converges multiple security functions into a single cloud-delivered service. Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) capabilities provide visibility and control over SaaS applications, including shadow IT discovery, inline and API-based protection, and granular activity-level policies. The Secure Web Gateway handles web traffic inspection, URL filtering, and threat protection for direct internet access.
Zero Trust Network Access replaces traditional VPN with application-level access control and continuous adaptive trust assessment. Unified DLP spans web, SaaS, email, and private applications with ML-based classification. Firewall as a Service provides cloud-delivered firewall protection for branch and remote users.
Netskope Private Access is the dedicated ZTNA solution for secure access to private applications in data centers and cloud environments without exposing the network. Netskope Cloud Exchange serves as an integration platform connecting Netskope with third-party security tools like SIEM, SOAR, EDR, and identity systems for automated workflows and threat intelligence sharing.
NewEdge Network
Netskope’s global security cloud, NewEdge, operates in over 75 regions worldwide with direct peering to major SaaS and cloud providers. The company claims full compute capability in every data center rather than relying on points of presence with backhauled traffic.
Market Position
Netskope is a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Security Service Edge and the Forrester Wave for SSE. The company competes primarily with Zscaler, Palo Alto Networks (Prisma Access), and Cisco.
