Netskope and Qastel
Turn the generative AI traffic Netskope already classifies into named tools, real users, and the data-loss alerts behind them.
Why the proxy is where shadow AI shows itself
Netskope already sorts your web traffic and files generative AI in a category of its own. Qastel reads that slice (the AI apps reached, who reached them, and the DLP alerts they tripped) and turns it into a ranked inventory you can make decisions about.
A free AI tool needs nothing but a browser tab, and its traffic still has to leave through your proxy. Netskope sees it go (which tool, which person, whether they posted, uploaded or copied) long before anyone thinks to mention it.
Only the AI slice leaves your tenant
Qastel filters on Netskope's side to the Generative AI category, so only AI traffic is ever read. Each app is folded into one record with its distinct users, its mix of activity, and the dates it was first and last seen over the past 30 days.
What you get
Discover, assess, control, comply.
What Netskope gives Qastel, at each of the four stages.
Discover
The generative AI apps reached across your network, recognised and named, read from the proxy you already run.
Assess
Each one rated for risk, data sensitivity and EU AI Act classification, with Netskope's own tags alongside.
Control
Personal-account use tied to the employee behind it, and DLP hits on AI traffic in the same queue.
Comply
A continuously refreshed record of AI use and the data-loss alerts it raised, with first- and last-seen dates.
Personal accounts and data loss, named
Where Netskope saw the login, Qastel tells a work account from a personal one (a Gmail sign-in to a chatbot, say) and links it to the employee behind it. DLP alerts raised on AI traffic arrive with the rule, the severity and what Netskope did, so the riskiest moments are already on the list.
What Qastel reads
From Netskope
- Generative AI application events
- Work and personal account logins
- DLP and policy alerts on AI traffic
Read-only. Nothing is written back.
Connect Netskope
Connects with a read-only token from a Netskope Service Account. Qastel checks it against your tenant before saving, reads AI traffic only, and never asks for file contents, policy changes or write access.
What you need before you start
- A Netskope tenant, reachable at <tenant>.goskope.com
- A Tenant Admin, the only role that can create the role and Service Account below
In Netskope, create a role with View on SkopeIT Application Events and Alerts, and nothing else.
Create a Service Account with that role, generate its token and copy it.
In Qastel, open Sources, choose Netskope, paste your tenant URL and the token, then connect.
