Building the world's most secure cloud network

Netskope NewEdge together with the ip location provides a low-latency infrastructure for all of Netskope’s leading web and cloud security products to enhance protection for businesses around the world.

Netskope, a leader in cloud security solutions, announces the availability of Netskope NewEdge, its globally distributed network infrastructure that enables Netskope’s native cloud protection platform to deliver real-time security, without traditional availability and performance limitations. As a result, Netskope customers increase their business productivity while adding advanced security features through lower latency.

Organizations are not well equipped to effectively protect the cloud and the web, and are struggling to understand why performance bottlenecks occur and why observed latencies occur, as they cannot afford to hire staff with the necessary carrier network expertise. Netskope NewEdge interconnects users, cloud services, commercial access providers and operators, using high performance and availability routing to provide better performance and a secure, uninterrupted experience.

“Increasingly, today’s organizations are integrating a distributed workforce, but they are struggling to find the cloud and web security tools that allow them to support employees regardless of location, device or time,” said Sanjay Beri, Founder and CEO of Netskope. “When enterprises deploy protection appliances in a few selected locations or work with a security vendor with legacy technology-based points of presence, they settle for a less effective and more latency-prone experience for remote offices and employees. Netskope NewEdge provides all users, regardless of location or connectivity, with an unprecedented global network infrastructure that ensures the right balance between control and speed to meet the demands of today’s modern business without adding complexity. Optimized performance and maximum security

Netskope NewEdge mitigates the shortcomings and limitations of Internet use to deliver online security by providing a global, distributed, carrier-grade, next-generation infrastructure based on advanced network, content and application optimization technologies and processes. This improves the overall user experience and reduces delays and disruptions, while enabling customers to enjoy optimized performance and maximum security.

“I joined Netskope to create a team that would help mitigate the shortcomings and limitations of Internet use to provide real-time protection and security without the traditional trade-off between security and performance,” said Joe DePalo, senior vice president of Platform Engineering and Operations at Netskope. “This announcement is a big milestone for the team, and I look forward to helping the company optimize performance without sacrificing security.

To support the launch of Netskope NewEdge, during 2019 Netskope will deploy more than 50 points of presence (POPs) supporting hundreds of millions of simultaneous connections, with a total performance capacity of 100 terabits per second (Tbps). Distributed worldwide, these POPs will ensure a fast and reliable user experience with a global, distributed, carrier-grade network infrastructure designed by a world-class platform engineering team, enabling Netskope customers to achieve optimised performance and maximum security.
