Our mission is to secure and empower productivity in a privacy-focused world, where work and play can happen anywhere. With everything now in the cloud, it’s critical that cybersecurity follows you wherever you go, securing your data from the endpoint all the way to the cloud. Mobility and cloud technology have become essential, as most of us now work and manage our personal lives digitally. With a platform that integrates endpoint and cloud security technologies, Lookout solutions can be tailored for any industry and any company size, from individual users to large global enterprises and governmental organizations. Cloud access doesn’t have to be all or nothing. Security shouldn’t interrupt productivity or impair the user’s experience. With visibility and insights into everything, we enable you to secure your data by dialing in precise access and providing a seamless and efficient experience.

The way we work has changed. People now work from anywhere, not just from an office. Applications are based in the cloud, not just on-premise. And the company network perimeter is now spread across the internet. Using a traditional, network-centric VPN for remote access is not only outdated and difficult to maintain, but exposes businesses to security breaches. VPN infrastructure is costly and time-consuming to procure, deploy, and maintain. Inability to secure access at the app level means hacks can expose whole networks. Twingate enables organizations to rapidly implement a modern Zero Trust network that is more secure and maintainable than VPNs. Delivered as a cloud-based service, Twingate empowers IT teams to easily configure a software-defined perimeter without changing infrastructure, and centrally manage user access to internal apps, whether they are on-prem or in the cloud.

Cato enables customers to gradually transform their WAN for the digital business. Cato SASE Cloud is a global converged cloud-native service that securely and optimally connects all branches, datacenters, people, and clouds. Cato can be gradually deployed to replace or augment legacy network services and security point solutions. Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) is a new enterprise networking category introduced by Gartner. SASE converges SD-WAN and network security point solutions (FWaaS, CASB, SWG, and ZTNA) into a unified, cloud-native service. In the past, network access was implemented with point solutions, managed as silos that were complex and costly. This hurt IT agility. With SASE, enterprises can reduce the time to develop new products, deliver them to the market, and respond to changes in business conditions or the competitive landscape.

Ensure least-privilege user access to specific business resources without granting excessive access to your corporate network, or exposing applications to the Internet. Avoid deploying agents on BYOD or third-party devices and the friction that comes with it. Support access to web apps, SSH, RDP and Git without a client. Analyze how users interact with your business applications to better detect anomalies, flag potential issues, and ensure networking remains aware of changes in security controls. Use key tech integrations to automatically verify and adapt access rights based on changes in context to protect data and always ensure least-privilege access. Make private apps invisible to the Internet, keep users off the network, and deliver a safer connection to SaaS apps.

Today, there’s more data and users outside the enterprise than inside, causing the network perimeter as we know it to dissolve. We need a new perimeter. One that is built in the cloud, and follows and protects data — wherever it goes. One that provides protection without slowing down or creating friction for the business. One that enables fast and secure access to the cloud and web using one of the world’s largest and fastest security networks, so you never have to sacrifice security for performance. This is the new perimeter. This is the Netskope Security Cloud. Reimagine your perimeter. That’s the vision of Netskope. The organic adoption of cloud and mobile in the enterprise presents challenges for security teams when it comes to managing risk without slowing down the business. Security has traditionally managed risk by applying heavy-handed controls, but today’s business wants to move fast without having velocity throttled. Netskope is redefining cloud, network, and data security.
