Netskope’s proven AI security expertise and infrastructure benefit customers transforming their businesses with AI
Netskope, a leader in modern security and networking for the cloud and AI era, announced that it achieved the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Security Competency status for AI Security. Netskope certifiably meets AWS technical and quality requirements to provide AWS customers with leading solutions that secure and protect AI workloads across all AI security use cases.

The AI Security category in the AWS Security Competency helps customers identify AWS Partners with deep experience securing AI environments to better address these risks, from shadow AI to non-human traffic. Netskope’s deep AWS expertise and ability to deliver solutions seamlessly on AWS helps organizations adopt, develop, and deploy security into their AWS environments, increasing their overall security posture.
