Netskope, a leader in security and networking, announced the expansion and enhancement of NewEdge , the carrier-grade infrastructure that powers the Netskope One platform, which delivers critical security, networking and analytics services . With the continued expansion of NewEdge and services such as Netskope One Digital Experience Management (DEM), Netskope is setting a new standard in modern security and networking to meet the needs of its customers through global delivery capabilities, end-to-end performance, and a resilient infrastructure that enables business continuity even in the event of unforeseen catastrophic events such as natural disasters or cable cuts.
Similar to how global cloud vendors build new infrastructure, Netskope’s private cloud, NewEdge, was designed for scalability, allowing it to quickly add data centers, increase capacity, and ensure always-on, high-performance Netskope One services. Unlike alternatives that rely on public clouds or third-party providers, Netskope directly manages its infrastructure, providing full compute at the edge and all Security Services Edge (SSE) services in every region, including mainland China. By directly managing its infrastructure, there’s no need to backhaul traffic or use virtual (or “fake”) POPs that add latency and negatively impact digital experiences. Netskope offers industry-leading service level agreements (SLAs) for availability, traffic handling, and security effectiveness, ensuring the reliability and performance companies need to run their businesses with peace of mind.
Netskope continues to enhance NewEdge, part of the Netskope One platform, and its critical security, network, and analytics services. Recent updates include:
The addition of multiple NewEdge regions (including data centers in Calgary, Helsinki, Lisbon and Prague) and the continued expansion of existing NewEdge regions (including data centers in Bogota, Jeddah, Osaka and New York)
With over 75 NewEdge regions worldwide, every region has a full-computing data center, delivering the full range of SASE capabilities, including cloud firewall, SWG, inline CASB, ZTNA, SD-WAN and data and threat protection.
With over 200 NewEdge localization zones covering over 220 countries and regions, users can enjoy direct local access to the Internet, regardless of which NewEdge data center they connect to, ensuring a smooth digital experience.
As of February 2025, we are ranked 12th as one of the world’s most active global Internet Exchange (IX) operators, alongside major web and cloud brands such as AWS, Facebook, Google, and Microsoft. Joining the IX demonstrates the cloud provider’s global presence while ensuring more traffic paths are available for better performance and resilience.
Expanding connectivity of NewEdge infrastructure, delivering nearly 5,000 network adjacencies to more than 750 unique Autonomous System Numbers (ASNs), reducing first- and last-mile latency and improving user and application experiences
We have launched the newly updated Netskope Trust Portal, a public interface available to anyone (not just Netskope customers) that provides real-time insight into the health of the Netskope cloud based on real data.
Expanded availability of NewEdge Route Control dynamically selects and prioritizes optimized routes to keep network traffic flowing while ensuring consistent performance and delivery of Netskope services end-to-end.

Additionally, Netskope is pushing the boundaries of DEM with cutting-edge AI and proprietary ML models to drive intelligent automation and advanced analytics to optimize network performance and user experience. New capabilities in Netskope One DEM include:
The Path Performance Dashboard’s automated network diagnostics instantly detect network path degradation, helping organizations minimize downtime across LAN and ISP connection paths while reducing the need for manual troubleshooting.
AI-powered user experience root cause analysis (RCA) automates problem detection and resolution, providing frontline helpdesk teams with real-time insights into poor user experience, while integrating directly with Information Technology Service Management (ITSM) systems for more efficient incident management.
