Enterprise cloud, AI, and security updates with Netskope and Cloudera - Week of August 11, 2025

Overview of Recent Activity

Recent reporting covered enterprise cloud and infrastructure service rankings, new tooling for detecting supply chain compromises, and network observability and automation upgrades across telecom and managed service providers. It also included enterprise efforts to deploy AI within controlled environments, partnerships for AI infrastructure, and security disclosures around exposed healthcare devices.

Key Themes and Developments

Technology Releases & Product Enhancements

Netskope Threat Labs introduced Behavioral Evaluation of Application Metrics (BEAM), an open-source tool to detect supply chain attacks without requiring endpoint agent deployment. BEAM processed files containing decrypted HTTP or HTTPS traffic, extracted user agent strings, and used language models and parsers to identify applications for comparisons against pre-trained models.

Cloudera announced Cloudera Data Services to run generative AI securely within data centers. The release included Cloudera AI Inference Service and AI Studios, and it supported on-premises deployment while aiming to reduce time from prototype to production.

Partnerships & Ecosystem Engagement

Krutrim partnered with Cloudera to use Cloudera’s data platform for AI and analytics on the Krutrim Cloud, including data lake workloads. Cloudera’s Mayank Baid and Krutrim’s Navendu Agarwal described alignment around AI infrastructure needs in India and scalability for data lake use cases.

Bank Negara Indonesia deepened its partnership with Cloudera, becoming an early adopter of Cloudera AI Inferencing powered by NVIDIA microservices. BNI’s Chief Information Officer Toto Prasetio highlighted secure scaling of GenAI efforts and the on-premises deployment’s role in maintaining control over sensitive data.

Infrastructure, Platform, or Deployment Updates

Aviz Networks promoted its Deep Network Observability solution for telecom operators implementing 5G, including integration for data ingestion and packet processing through an open architecture. The solution targeted detection of network degradation in less than five seconds and correlation of QoE with SLA metrics.

Multiple organizations transitioned network fabrics toward Community SONiC, including Techevolution’s migration managed through Aviz ONES and Aitire’s adoption with Aviz’s Open Networking Enterprise Suite. Techevolution said the migration improved flexibility and reduced capital and operational expenses compared to proprietary solutions.
