bluesource Partners with Netskope to deliver Security and Data Protection beyond the corporate perimeter

United Kingdom, London – 2 December 2020 – bluesource Information Ltd, the UK’s leading data migration, protection and governance solutions provider, today announced a new partnership with Netskope, the leading security cloud. Under the new relationship, bluesource will be able to provide organisations in the UK with visibility, compliance and real-time data and threat protection when accessing cloud services, websites and private apps from anywhere, on any device.

The Netskope Security Cloud addresses the changing needs of organisations by combining next-generation Secure Web Gateway (SWG) capabilities, the world’s leading CASB, Cloud Security Posture Management, zero trust network access, and advanced machine learning to detect unauthorized data exfiltration and advanced threat protection. Netskope takes a data-centric approach that empowers network, infrastructure and security teams with the right balance of protection and speed they need to secure their digital transformation journey. Netskope Security Cloud is delivered on the NewEdge global private cloud network, the world’s most well-connected security network, which enables the delivery of real-time, cloud-native security without the traditional performance vs security trade-off.

Simon Wardle, Managing Director at bluesource commented: “As more businesses are turning to cloud computing to improve productivity and reduce costs, ensuring data security and compliance has become one of their top priorities. We are delighted to be working with Netskope to offer enriched security solutions that help our customers stay secure in the connected world.”

Jonathan Mepsted, UK Regional Director for Netskope commented: “44% of security threats now come from cloud applications and services, and more than 50% of DLP violations are cloud related.  Legacy SWGs are blind to more than 50% of data traffic, and we have seen irreversible shifts this year in employee working patterns.  These facts all point to the logic of adopting a Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) architecture which eliminates perimeter-based appliances.  Netskope’s deep understanding of the cloud, and our data-centric approach, empowers security, network and infrastructure teams with the right balance of protection and speed they need to secure their remote-first workforce and advance their journey to SASE.”
