Netskope Intelligent SSE Integrates with Amazon Security

Netskope, a leader in Secure Access Service Edge (SASE), today announced an integration between Netskope's Intelligent Security Service Edge (SSE) platform and Amazon Security Lake from Amazon Web Services (AWS). Amazon Security Lake is a service that automatically centralizes an organization's security data from across their AWS environments, leading SaaS providers, on-premises, and cloud sources into a purpose-built data lake, so customers can act on security data faster and simplify security data management across hybrid and multi cloud environments.

Organizations want more visibility across all their security data sources, including on-premises and cloud, to quickly identify and respond to potential threats. To do this, they must enable logging across their security infrastructure, but often face challenges with incompatible data formats and no centralized place to store the logs for useful analysis.

To help solve these challenges, Netskope customers can now export logs from the Netskope Intelligent SSE platform to Amazon Security Lake. Amazon Security Lake manages data throughout its lifecycle with customizable data retention settings and converts and conforms incoming security data to the Open Cybersecurity Schema Framework (OCSF), an open community schema. This makes it easier to automatically normalize security data from AWS and combine it with dozens of pre-integrated third-party security data sources.

Netskope and AWS can help customers detect and investigate threats faster, by providing:

  • Centralized Visibility: Organizations can now export logs, events and alerts collected by Netskope Cloud Exchange to Amazon Security Lake to get a holistic view of threats and vulnerabilities in their overall environment. Centralize years of cloud and on-premises security data at petabyte scale for detailed analysis.
  • Stronger Security Posture: Organizations can use Netskope logs and Amazon Security Lake analysis tools to quickly discover and remediate threats and vulnerabilities across their environment to strengthen their security posture.
  • Centralized Threat Remediation: Organizations can use Netskope and AWS services to respond to alerts and remediate threats from the centralized Amazon Security Lake console.

"As security threats increase along with the ongoing shift to hybrid work, organizations want to be confident that their data, employees, and resources are safe from potential attacks and other nefarious activities," said Andy Horwitz, Vice President of Business Development, Netskope. "Netskope has helped thousands of customers improve their security posture through the use of our Netskope Intelligent SSE platform. By meeting the rigorous standards in support of Amazon Security Lake, organizations can have greater confidence in Netskope's deep technical expertise on AWS and our proven track record in securing even the most complex cloud environments."

Safe Security Joins MITRE Engenuity's Center for Threat-Informed Defense

Prnewswire | July 06, 2023

Safe Security, the AI-Driven Cyber Risk Management company, announced today that it has joined the Center for Threat-Informed Defense (Center), operated by MITRE Engenuity, as a Research Sponsor. This partnership will enhance the organization's ability to develop resources to protect against cyberattacks through its unique approach to public interest collaborative research and development (R&D). "We are proud to announce our partnership with the Center as a research sponsor and are excited to share our expertise to drive cybersecurity innovation," said Vidit Baxi CISO and Co-founder at Safe Security. "The Center promotes the co-development of new tools, techniques, and strategies to address challenges in today's highly vulnerable ecosystem. This program allows us to contribute and support global community engagement efforts in understanding and communicating cyber risk. Alongside industry members, we can better articulate and mitigate cyber risks, prioritize specific threat-informed actions to prevent breaches, ultimately contributing to the advancement and improvement of cyber defense." In 2019, MITRE Engenuity was established as a subsidiary of the MITRE Corporation amid a noticeable shift in R&D investments moving towards the private sector. Recognizing that vital industry investments may become overwhelmed in the conceptual phase without proper guidance, the subsidiary aims to ensure effective implementation through nurturing and radical collaboration. Operating within the dynamic cybersecurity landscape, MITRE Engenuity brings together experts, organizations, and investors in a non-competitive environment to foster generational impact for the public good. SAFE's research collaboration will build on the MITRE ATT&CK® framework, forming the foundation for a threat-informed defense approach to counter the latest techniques leveraged by today's most advanced threat actors. The Center also works to provide defenders with a deep understanding of adversary tradecraft and advances in developing countermeasures to prevent, detect, and mitigate modern threats by identifying trends in attacker behavior that can inform the threat intelligence community. Using its AI-fueled cyber risk cloud of clouds platform for predicting and preventing cyber breaches, SAFE evaluates the efficacy of cyber controls by automatically mapping common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVEs) and cyber controls across the kill chain using the MITRE ATT&CK and D3FEND frameworks. This approach enables CISOs to visualize and assess cybersecurity. Predictive data models co-developed with MIT empower CISOs to translate the bits and bytes of cyber risk into dollars and cents, allowing them to communicate these risks to the board effectively and all risk stakeholders. SAFE delivers a data-driven, real-time solution for measuring, managing, and mitigating cyber risk. It gives organizations an aggregated view of enterprise security risk by collating disparate cyber signals for single visibility across their attack surface, technology, people, and third parties. SAFE is dedicated to working with the Center in its continuous efforts to make meaningful contributions to the cybersecurity community, enabling organizations to move from a reactive state to a predictive posture to understand the likelihood of different cyber risk scenarios. "The Center for Threat-Informed Defense serves as a hub for top-tier security teams worldwide to collaborate on identifying and resolving the most pressing challenges confronting cyber defenders," said Jonathan Baker, Co-Founder and Director of the Center for Threat-Informed Defense. "We are thrilled to have Safe Security on board as we strengthen our collective understanding of adversary behaviors and our ability to thwart cyber attacks." About The Center for Threat-Informed Defense The Center is a non-profit, privately funded research and development organization operated by MITRE Engenuity. The center's mission is to advance the state of the art and the state of the practice in threat-informed defense globally. Comprised of participant organizations from around the globe with highly sophisticated security teams, the center builds on MITRE ATT&CK, an important foundation for threat-informed defense used by security teams and vendors in their enterprise security operations. Because the center operates for the public good, outputs of its research and development are available publicly and for the benefit of all. For more information, contact ctid@mitre-engenuity.org.
