CST VerdictBased on our analysis of NIST CSF 2.0 coverage, core features, company size fit, deployment model, here is our conclusion:
Mid-market and enterprise security teams that need to replace multiple point products with a single policy engine should start with Netskope One SSE, especially if your users are scattered across cloud apps, remote networks, and branch offices. The single-pass inspection architecture eliminates the performance tax of stacking SWG, CASB, and ZTNA separately, and its AI-driven app discovery handles the discovery work most teams skip. Skip this if your organization runs primarily on-premises with minimal cloud adoption or lacks the operational bandwidth to manage centralized policies across five security functions simultaneously.
Enterprise security teams moving away from perimeter-based defense will find Zscaler Zero Trust's asset invisibility and lateral movement prevention worth the migration friction; the platform directly addresses the core zero trust problem of attackers moving freely once inside. The architecture covers all five NIST CSF 2.0 foundational areas, with particular strength in continuous monitoring and access control, which means less manual detection work when configured correctly. Skip this if your organization needs integrated incident response or recovery automation; Zscaler emphasizes blocking and detection, not remediation workflows.
