About Netskope
Today theres more data and users outside the enterprise than inside causing the network perimeter as we know it to dissolve. We realized a new perimeter was needed one that is built in the cloud and follows and protects data wherever it goes so we started Netskope to redefine Cloud Network and Data Security.
Since 2012 we have built the market-leading cloud security company and an award-winning culture powered by hundreds of employees spread across offices in Santa Clara St. Louis Bangalore London Paris Melbourne Taipei and Tokyo. Our core values are openness honesty and transparency and we purposely developed our open desk layouts and large meeting spaces to support and promote partnerships collaboration and teamwork. From catered lunches and office celebrations to employee recognition events and social professional groups such as the Awesome Women of Netskope (AWON) we strive to keep work fun supportive and interactive.Visit us atNetskope Careers.
