# Source configuration for Netskope
## Integrating with Netskope
Netskope is a cloud-native Security Service Edge (SSE) and SASE platform that provides real-time data and threat protection for cloud services, websites, and private applications. CloudWatch Pipeline uses the Netskope REST API v2 endpoints to retrieve security events and alerts from your Netskope tenant. The REST API v2 provides access to security event and alert logs through dedicated endpoints for each log type: application, page, network, infrastructure, audit, incident, endpoint, and alert. Alert logs cover threat detections and policy violations across alert types such as DLP, malware, malsite, policy, compromised credential, and UBA.
## Authenticating with Netskope
To read Netskope event and alert logs, the pipeline needs to authenticate with your tenant using a REST API v2 token issued through a Service Account under the RBACv3 framework. Follow these steps to create a Service Account and generate an API token:
1. Log in to your Netskope Admin Console at https://.goskope.com.
1. Navigate to **Settings** > **Administration** > **Administrators & Roles**.
1. Choose the **Roles** tab, then choose **Create Role**.
1. Enter a Role Name (for example, "CloudWatch-API-Role") and configure the following functional area permissions:
+ **Steering**: Application Events, Page Events, Network Events, Infrastructure Events, Incident Events, Endpoint Events, Alerts — all set to View.
+ **Administration**: Audit Log — set to View.
+ **Access Control**: Infrastructure — set to View.
+ **DLP**: DLP Incident — set to View.
1. Choose **Save** to create the role.
1. Choose the **Administrators** tab, then choose the **Service Accounts** button.
1. Choose **New Service Account** and configure:
+ **Service Account Name**: Enter a descriptive name (for example, "CloudWatch-Collector").
+ **Role**: Select the role created in step 5 (for example, "CloudWatch-API-Role").
+ **Expire In**: Set an appropriate expiration period (for example, 365 days).
1. Choose **Create**. A dialog displays the generated REST API token. Copy this token immediately — it will not be shown again.
1. In AWS Secrets Manager, create a secret and store the API token.
## Configuring the CloudWatch Pipeline
When configuring the pipeline to read event and alert logs from Netskope, choose Netskope as the data source. Fill in the required information such as your tenant hostname and the AWS Secrets Manager secret ARN for your credentials where api\_token is stored. Once you create the pipeline, data will be available in the selected CloudWatch Logs log group.
## Supported Open Cybersecurity Schema Framework Event Classes
This integration supports OCSF schema version v1.5.0 and transforms the following events that map to Authentication (3002), Entity Management (3004), Account Change (3001), Network Activity (4001), Detection Finding (2004), Data Security Finding (2006), File Hosting Activity (6006), and Device Inventory Info (5001).
