Content Safelist Requirements
The platform supports both Skillsoft-developed content and partner content within the platform. Skillsoft-developed content is hosted on and delivered through the platform, while partner content is hosted by and delivered through each content provider.
To ensure all the content you licensed plays as expected, we provided a detailed safelist.
Skillsoft Content Requirements
Skillsoft makes extensive use of Content Delivery Networks (CDN). Using a CDN provides our customers all over the world with the best possible content experience by offering a cached copy of content assets from a location geographically closer to users than our primary data center in the United States. However, this makes it impossible to provide IP address ranges that cover all the possible locations of these servers.
In addition, Skillsoft tries to declare all fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) used in our hosted solutions. We may introduce new FQDNs under the *.percipio.com domain at any point without notification. If you rely on safelisting to allow access to Skillsoft’s Percipio Platform solution, we recommend using the *.percipio.com domain level to minimize the opportunity for unexpected disruptions.
