“AI is being deployed faster than security teams can manually track, triage, and contain, and unapproved tools often carry the highest risk,” Netskope co-founder and CEO Sanjay Beri said in a statement. “We are making a fundamental shift from security teams responding to AI risks to security operations anticipating and eliminating AI risks.”
The visibility provided by AI Command Center is enabled by NewEdge, Netskope’s custom-built global network, where customer traffic travels through more than 120 data centers around the world before reaching the cloud and AI services. NewEdge serves as the foundation for the company’s Netskope One Secure Access Services Edge (SASE) platform. When organizations deploy Netskope, software on end-user devices routes web, SaaS, private application, and AI traffic through the Netskope cloud, allowing businesses to inspect activity and enforce security and governance policies.
“Enterprise AI adoption is exploding, and the volume and proliferation of data has created pervasive visibility gaps for security teams. For many organizations, it is difficult to effectively correlate risk across managed AI assets, shadow AI assets, user identities, and data stores,” Jennifer Glenn, research director for data and information security at IDC, said in a statement. “Meeting this challenge requires moving beyond siled tools to a unified intelligence layer. Platforms that combine comprehensive AI detection with real-time risk correlation are essential to enabling security operations to predict, prioritize, and autonomously eliminate AI-enabled threats at the speed the situation demands.”
Netscope said in a blog post accompanying the announcement that businesses are struggling to keep up with the rapid growth of AI technology and the risks it poses. said Rich Beckett, Senior Product Marketing Manager at Netskope. “Security teams know that AI is everywhere. What they don’t know is exactly where it is, what is controlled, uncontrolled or personal, what data it touches, who has access to it, and whether that data creates risk.”
