    Netskope NewEdge is built by industry veterans representing the largest and most performant networks ever created.

    FREMONT, CA: Netskope, the leading security cloud, expanded the Netskope NewEdge network with a new data center in Seoul, South Korea. Serving millions of enterprise users worldwide, Netskope NewEdge is a carrier-grade, security private cloud network that is reserved exclusively for Netskope customers. With South Korea representing a 'top five' economy in Asia and 'top 15' globally, the Seoul data center's addition enhances the NewEdge infrastructure and demonstrates an increased investment in the region. This translates into improved coverage for Netskope services with high performance and lower latency, especially crucial for companies headquartered in the region or multinationals with a presence in Northern Asia.

    "Our customers are rapidly moving away from legacy backhaul architectures, embracing the cloud, and looking to acquire security technology that controls data movement, guards against threats and secures users both inside and outside the enterprise network," said Jay Kwon, CTO at VicCns. "With Netskope launching a new data center in Seoul paired with the NewEdge network's local peering for the fastest access to web, cloud and SaaS in region, we expect increased adoption of Netskope cloud security across Korea in the coming months."

    NewEdge delivers inline security services through a carrier-grade, next-generation global infrastructure based on advanced application and network optimization technologies and processes. As a private cloud network, NewEdge optimizes connectivity with its resilient global architecture, which is 

    directly peered with major providers, mitigating the challenge of the public internet. This enhances the overall user experience, resulting in a better web, cloud, and private application performance for most Netskope customers.

    "We're excited to continue our expansion across Asia-Pacific with the launch of the NewEdge data center in Seoul," said Jason Hofmann, VP Platform Architecture and Services at Netskope. "With just 5 percent to 10 percent of the latency compared to other vendors based on 3rd-party tests, Netskope is now unequivocally the highest-performing cloud security provider in South Korea, with the fastest on-ramps for user traffic and best round trip times for web, cloud and SaaS access."

    The Netskope Security Cloud, delivered on NewEdge, provides unrivaled visibility and real-time data and threat protection for cloud services, websites, and private apps accessed from anywhere, on any device. No other company in the market has addressed shifting demands by combining Next-Generation 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 understands the cloud and takes a data-centric approach that empowers security teams with the right balance of protection and speed they need to secure their digital transformation journey.

    To accelerate deployment and simplify administration for network teams, Netskope supports any vendor's most flexible options for steering traffic to the NewEdge network. This includes Netskope's lightweight client for managed devices or a traditional proxy auto-config (PAC) file-based approach. NewEdge also works seamlessly with a customer's existing router, firewall, and proxy investments utilizing IPSec/GRE tunnels or proxy chaining, as well as plug-and-play integrations with SD-WAN solutions. To extend security and data protection to unmanaged users and devices, Netskope also supports an extensive set of clientless options to enable any web-based, SaaS application.
