Netskope’s REST API v2 provides access to various event types via URI paths. The event types include application, alert, infrastructure, audit, incident, network, and page. These event types can be used to retrieve data from Netskope’s cloud security platform. The event types client and user are not supported by the REST API v2. References: REST API v2 Overview, Cribl Netskope Events and Alerts Integration, REST API Events and Alerts Response Descriptions

If there are no references to the private application in the npadebuglog.log, it is likely that the user is not added to the required real-time policy. Without proper policy assignment, the user’s traffic will not be routed correctly through the private access setup, causing access issues​.

The default Netskope tenant steering configuration blocks untrusted root certificates and self-signed server certificates. These settings are intended to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks and ensure the validity of the SSL connection. However, they also prevent the access to the development Web server that uses self-signed SSL certificates. To allow access to the Web server, the settings need to be changed or an exception needs to be added for the Web server domain.

The purpose of the file hash list in Netskope is to configure blocklist and allowlist entries referenced in the custom Malware Detection profiles. A file hash list is a collection of MD5 or SHA-256 hashes that represent files that you want to allow or block in your organization. You can create a file hash list when adding a file profile and use it as an allowlist or blocklist for files in your organization1. You can then select the file hash list when creating a Malware Detection profile2. 

Creating a steering exception for the host is the appropriate action to prevent SSL decryption on specific network traffic. Steering exceptions allow you to bypass decryption for designated hosts, which is useful for privacy-sensitive scenarios​​.

To deploy Netskope using IPSec tunnels for security in this scenario, two considerations to make a successful connection are C. redundant POPs and D. number of hosts. Redundant POPs are Points of Presence that are geographically distributed data centers that host the Netskope cloud platform. You need to consider redundant POPs to ensure high availability and resiliency of your IPSec tunnels in case of a failure or outage in one of the POPs. You can configure multiple IPSec tunnels from your network to different POPs and use dynamic routing protocols such as BGP to load balance and failover the traffic1. Number of hosts is the number of devices or endpoints that will use the IPSec tunnels to access the cloud services. You need to consider the number of hosts to estimate the bandwidth and throughput requirements of your IPSec tunnels and choose the appropriate POPs that can handle the traffic volume. You can use the Netskope Bandwidth Calculator tool to estimate the bandwidth and throughput based on the number of hosts, locations, and cloud services2. Therefore, options C and D are correct and the other options are incorrect. References: IPSec - Netskope Knowledge Portal, Netskope Bandwidth Calculator

For the use case of managed Windows-based endpoints where no clients or agents can be added, you can suggest that the customer use Netskope’s Explicit Proxy. Explicit Proxy is a method for steering traffic from any device to the Netskope Cloud using a proxy server. There are two supported configurations for this use case: Endpoints can be configured to directly use the Netskope proxy by setting the proxy settings in the browser or the operating system to point to the explicit proxy destination provided by Netskope. Endpoints can be configured to use a Proxy Auto Configuration (PAC) file by downloading a PAC file template from Netskope and modifying it according to the customer’s needs. The PAC file can be hosted on-premises or on the cloud and distributed to the endpoints. The other options are not valid for this use case. Endpoints do not need separate steering configurations in the tenant settings, as they can use the same explicit proxy destination and port. Endpoints do not need to be configured in the device section of the tenant to interoperate with all proxies, as this is only required for reverse proxy mode. References: Explicit Proxy3, [Explicit Proxy over IPSec and GRE Tunnels]
