Question 1 Domain 3Data discovery and classification for cloud storage

You are using the Netskope DLP solution. You notice that valid credit card numbers in a file that you just uploaded to an unsanctioned cloud storage solution are not triggering a policy violation. You can see the Skope IT application events for this traffic but no DLP alerts.

Which statement is correct in this scenario?

Correct Answer: D
Explanation

The statement that is correct in this scenario is D. Credit card numbers are entered with a space or dash separator and not as a 16-digit consecutive number. This is one of the possible reasons why valid credit card numbers in a file are not triggering a policy violation by Netskope DLP. Netskope DLP uses data identifiers to detect sensitive data in files and network traffic.Data identifiers are predefined or custom rules that match data patterns based on regular expressions, checksums, keywords, etc1.The credit card number data identifier matches 16-digit consecutive numbers that pass the Luhn algorithm check2. If the credit card numbers are entered with a space or dash separator, such as 1234-5678-9012-3456 or 1234 5678 9012 3456, they will not match the data identifier and will not trigger a policy violation.To solve this problem, you can either remove the separators from the credit card numbers or create a custom data identifier that matches the credit card numbers with separators3. Therefore, option D is correct and the other options are incorrect.Reference:Data Identifiers - Netskope Knowledge Portal,Credit Card Number - Netskope Knowledge Portal,Create a Custom Data Identifier - Netskope Knowledge Portal

Question 2 Domain 2Netskope User Activity and Threat Protection

You are given an MD5 hash of a file suspected to be malware by your security incident response team. They ask you to offer insight into who has encountered this file and from where was the threat initiated. In which two Skope IT events tables would you search to find the answers to these questions? (Choose two.)

Correct Answer: A, C
Explanation

To find the answers to the questions posed by the security incident response team, you need to search in the Application Events and Alerts tables in Skope IT. The Application Events table shows the details of the cloud application activities performed by the users, such as upload, download, share, etc.You can filter the Application Events table by the MD5 hash of the file to find out who has encountered this file and from which cloud service it was downloaded1. The Alerts table shows the details of the policy violations triggered by the users, such as DLP, threat protection, anomaly detection, etc.You can filter the Alerts table by the MD5 hash of the file to find out if this file was detected as malware by Netskope and what action was taken2. Therefore, options A and C are correct and the other options are incorrect.Reference:Application Events - Netskope Knowledge Portal,Alerts - Netskope Knowledge Portal

Question 3 Domain 2Netskope User Activity and Threat Protection

An engineering firm is using Netskope DLP to identify and block sensitive documents, including schematics and drawings. Lately, they have identified that when these documents are blocked, certain employees may be taking screenshots and uploading them. They want to block any screenshots from being uploaded.

Which feature would you use to satisfy this requirement?

Correct Answer: C
Explanation

To block any screenshots from being uploaded, the engineering firm should use the ML image classifier feature of Netskope DLP. This feature uses machine learning to detect sensitive information within images, such as screenshots, whiteboards, passports, driver's licenses, etc. The firm can create a DLP policy that blocks any image upload that matches the screenshot classifier. This will prevent employees from circumventing the DLP controls by taking screenshots of sensitive documents.Reference:Improved DLP Image Classifiers,Netskope Data Loss Prevention,The Importance of a Machine Learning-Based Source Code Classifier

Question 4 Domain 5Integration with Third-Party Security Tools

You are using Skope IT to analyze and correlate a security incident. You are seeing too many events generated by API policies. You want to filter for logs generated by the Netskope client only.

Correct Answer: A
Explanation

To filter for logs specifically generated by the Netskope client, select 'Client' from the access_method filter dropdown menu in Skope IT. This filter allows administrators to narrow down logs by access method, making it easier to troubleshoot issues related only to the Netskope client.

Question 5 Domain 4SWG functionalities for web traffic filtering and control

A customer wants to deploy the Netskope client on all their employee laptops to protect all Web traffic when users are working from home. However, users are required to work from their local offices at least one day per week. Management requests that users returning to the office be able to transparently leverage the local security stack without any user intervention.

Which two statements are correct in this scenario? (Choose two.)

Correct Answer: A, C
Explanation

To allow users to transparently leverage the local security stack when they return to the office, you need to follow these two statements: A. You must enable On-premises Detection in the client configuration and C. You must disable Dynamic Steering in the traffic steering profile. On-premises Detection is a feature that allows the Netskope client to detect whether it is on-premises or off-premises based on a DNS or HTTP probe.You need to enable On-premises Detection in the client configuration and specify a domain name or an HTTP address that is only accessible from your local network3. Dynamic Steering is a feature that allows you to steer different types of traffic differently based on various criteria such as user group, location, category, etc.You need to disable Dynamic Steering in the traffic steering profile or create an exception for your local network to bypass Netskope and use your local security stack4. Therefore, options A and C are correct and the other options are incorrect.Reference:Client Configuration - Netskope Knowledge Portal,Dynamic Steering - Netskope Knowledge Portal

Question 6 Domain 1Netskope Security Cloud Fundamentals

Your organization has three main locations with 30.000 hosts in each location. You are planning to deploy Netskope using iPsec tunnels for security.

What are two considerations to make a successful connection in this scenario? (Choose two.)

Correct Answer: C, D
Explanation

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.Reference:IPSec - Netskope Knowledge Portal,Netskope Bandwidth Calculator

Question 7 Domain 5Integration with Third-Party Security Tools

Your company asks you to use Netskope to integrate with Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) vendors such as CrowdStrike. In this scenario, what is a requirement for a successful Integration and sharing of threat data?

Correct Answer: A
Explanation

To integrate Netskope with EDR vendors such as CrowdStrike and share threat data, a requirement for a successful integration is A. API Client ID. An API Client ID is a unique identifier that is used to authenticate and authorize requests to the EDR vendor's API. You need to obtain an API Client ID from the EDR vendor and enter it in the Netskope tenant settings under Threat Protection > Integration.This will allow Netskope to communicate with the EDR vendor and exchange threat intelligence and remediation actions1. Therefore, option A is correct and the other options are incorrect.Reference:Integrating CrowdStrike for EDR - Netskope Knowledge Portal
