Story
Financials work at Square spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States. Access control was splitting across regional habits. IAM and helpdesk asked for a shared way to run identity operations without freezing local judgment.
Netskope (Next Gen SWG) is what they standardized on. Netskope provides security service edge products that inspect cloud and web traffic for data protection and threat defense. Square uses it as the system of record for access control, with IAM and helpdesk as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
