Story
BP is based in the United Kingdom and runs energy operations at a scale where endpoint detection cannot live in side channels. SOC analysts were reconciling competing copies of the same work, which slowed security operations and hid who owned the next step.
The company runs security operations on Netskope, with Next Gen SWG as the product SOC analysts actually open. Netskope provides security service edge products that inspect cloud and web traffic for data protection and threat defense. For BP, that means SOC analysts can open one workflow, see endpoint detection, and let neighboring teams join without inventing a parallel stack.
Public materials confirm the companies and products. They do not always publish a single verified KPI for this pairing, so the outcome here is operational: clearer ownership, fewer stalled handoffs, and a shared record for endpoint detection.
