Overview

An MCP server for Netskope NPA, enabling AI-driven automation of infrastructure management, application lifecycle, and security policy enforcement.

This MCP server provides powerful automation capabilities for Netskope NPA, but its write access and reliance on API keys introduce moderate risk. It's safe when used with careful planning and adherence to security best practices, but risky if misconfigured or if the API key is compromised.

Performance will depend on the Netskope API's rate limits and the complexity of the automated workflows. Consider optimizing workflows to minimize API calls.

Cost is primarily associated with Netskope API usage. Monitor API call volume to avoid unexpected charges.

Who Is This For?

Best For

Automating repetitive tasks in Netskope NPA management
Rapidly deploying and configuring new applications
Enforcing consistent security policies across the environment
Responding quickly to security incidents
Performing compliance audits and generating reports

Not Ideal For

Environments where manual control and oversight are paramount
Tasks requiring complex decision-making beyond pre-defined workflows
Situations where immediate rollback is critical
Organizations without sufficient Netskope NPA expertise

Autonomy & Execution

Default ModeRead and Write enabled

Destructive Tools

The MCP server defaults to read and write access, and includes tools capable of destructive actions. There is no built-in sandboxing or rollback mechanism, so careful planning and testing are crucial.

StatelessYes

Retry LogicBuilt-in

ConcurrencyNot documented

Production Tip

Implement thorough testing and validation procedures before deploying automated workflows to production environments.

FAQ

What authentication methods are supported?

The MCP server uses API keys for authentication.

Does this server support rollback?

No, there is no built-in rollback support. Implement your own backup and recovery mechanisms.

Is there a dry-run mode?

No, the server does not offer a dry-run mode. Test changes in a non-production environment first.

How are errors handled?

The server provides detailed error context for troubleshooting.

Can I run multiple instances of this server?

Concurrency support is not documented, so it's best to assume single-threaded execution.

What are the rate limits for the Netskope API?

Refer to the Netskope API documentation for rate limit information.

How do I secure the API key?

Store the API key securely using environment variables and restrict access to authorized personnel only.
