You want to deploy Netskope's zero trust network access (ZTNA) solution, NP

Netskope Private Access (NPA) is a Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) solution that functions by steering traffic for specific private applications from a user's device through the Netskope Security Cloud. The fundamental action to enable this service is to configure a traffic steering policy. Within the Netskope admin console, an administrator must create or edit a steering configuration and explicitly enable the option to "Steer all Private Apps." This instructs the Netskope Client, installed on endpoints, to intercept and tunnel traffic destined for the defined private applications, thereby deploying the core ZTNA functionality.

A. OAuth is an authorization framework. While it can be part of a ZTNA identity strategy, it does not enable the core traffic steering mechanism of NPA.

B. NPA primarily uses a client-initiated ZTNA model, not a reverse proxy architecture. SAML is used for user authentication, which is a prerequisite, not the deployment action itself.

D. SCIM is a protocol for automating user provisioning and de-provisioning from an identity provider. It manages user identities but does not activate the ZTNA service.
