Dope Security CASB Neural

Dope Security CASB Neural is a cloud access security broker for data loss prevention and SaaS security posture management. It uses large language models to identify externally shared files that may contain personal, payment, health, or intellectual property data across Microsoft 365 and Google cloud apps. It detects exposed files in OneDrive and Google Drive, shows who can access them, and lets administrators make them private with one-click remediation. It also finds apps authorized to access Microsoft 365 or Google through APIs. The maker says identification and monitoring work without configuration. Relevant files are downloaded for language-model processing and then deleted; the maker says file content is never stored. Customer web traffic remains on the endpoint instead of going to Dope Security’s cloud for decryption. CASB Neural is available on macOS, Windows, and the web, with API-based deployment. A free trial is available through Google or Microsoft. The SWG plan is free. Pricing for SWG + DLP, SSE+, and SWG + CASB is on request.
