Free Netskope NSK300 Practice Exam with Questions & Answers

The reason for the activity being NULL in this scenario is likely because a user accessed a static Web page. In Netskope’s Advanced Analytics, when the activity is reported as NULL, it often indicates that there was no dynamic interaction or transaction to record, which is typical when a static web page is accessed1. Static web pages do not generate the kind of events or activities that are tracked by policies, hence they appear as NULL in the activity field.

The correct query to use in the Edit Widget window to narrow down the results is option A: “app-ccl-compliance-cert neq ‘HIPAA’ and category eq ‘Cloud Storage’”. This query filters out applications that are not HIPAA compliant and belong to the Cloud Storage category, ensuring that only non-HIPAA compliant cloud storage applications are displayed in the results. This helps in identifying and blocking such applications as per the manager’s request without affecting business or departmental applications. It aligns with Netskope’s capabilities to enforce controls and restrictions on high-risk cloud services to help address HIPAA and HITECH compliance, as well as to audit suspected violations with a full cloud and web activity trail1.

In the exhibit, the Malware Remediation Profile is configured with:

Connected EDR Server: crowdstrike-demo

Selected Action: Add to watchlist/blocklist

Not Selected: Isolate, Alert

When using CrowdStrike as an EDR integration, the action “Add to watchlist/blocklist” corresponds to:

➡️ Adding the malware hash as an Indicator of Compromise (IOC) inside CrowdStrike Falcon.

CrowdStrike will then block or flag that hash across all managed endpoints, depending on its local policies.

In Netskope Cloud Security, to block uploads of password-protected files, you should add the file profile to a DLP (Data Loss Prevention) profile that is used in a Real-time Protection policy. The DLP profiles in Netskope are designed to detect and protect sensitive data in real-time and at rest across the cloud environment. This approach ensures that any file matching the criteria set in the file profile, such as being password-protected, will trigger the DLP rules and prevent the upload action in real-time.

The given Skope IT query specifies the following conditions:

User equals ‘user@company.com’

Access method equals ‘Client’

Activity equals ‘Download’ or ‘Upload’

Site equals ‘Amazon S3’

The query combines these conditions using logical operators (AND and OR).

The result of this query will include all events where the specified user (‘user@company.com’) is either downloading or uploading data to or from the site ‘Amazon S3’ using the Netskope Client.

It does not include events related to other users or IP addresses. References:

To verify the previous value of a structured data field in Salesforce after an unauthorized change, you would use Skope IT with an Access Method of API Connector. This method allows you to search the Application Event Details for the ‘Old Value’ field. By filtering with the user details and the edit activity, you can pinpoint the exact change and retrieve the original value of the field.

The inconsistent results observed during User Acceptance Testing (where marketing users sometimes access gambling sites and sometimes are blocked) are likely due to the configuration of the Forward Proxy.

Cookie Surrogate: The Cookie Surrogate is a mechanism used in Forward Proxy deployments to maintain user context across multiple requests. It ensures that user-specific policies are consistently applied even when multiple users share the same IP address (common in VDI environments).

Issue: If the Forward Proxy is not configured to use the Cookie Surrogate, it may lead to inconsistent behavior. When different users log into the VDI server, their requests may not be associated with their specific user context, resulting in varying policy enforcement.

Solution: Ensure that the Forward Proxy is properly configured to use the Cookie Surrogate, allowing consistent policy enforcement based on individual user identities. References:
