The solution's preventative approach to cloud security is quite good. In my personal experience as a security engineer, we need something like this so that we can work on other manual tasks. All those tasks can be covered by the tool, and our task will be to monitor those things periodically. We can see the findings, and based on the filtration or categorization, we can only work on the critical ones first. So, it will be easy for a security engineer to manage those vulnerabilities.

In my experience, Prisma Cloud is the best cloud security solution, whether on-premises or in the cloud. It can monitor multiple cloud products, such as Azure and AWS. I believe it is the best tool for meeting the container requirements of cloud-native applications. It is user-friendly, and upgrades are easy to perform, with documentation available on the official site. It can be deployed on-premises or in the cloud infrastructure. I think it is a good security tool for cloud infrastructure.

There are various cloud configurations that can help you gain insights. If a threat is on the portal, it will give you insight into the cloud infrastructure to help you improve the configuration to make it more secure.

It allows us to take a preventative approach to security. When I started with Prisma, we had sessions about how we could work with the capabilities. We have a lot of features in Prisma Cloud. The UI has improved and helped us gather information about vulnerabilities and compliance issues.

We like Prisma's preventative approach to cloud security. It alerts us about security issues before they become a problem. If our cloud system has outages, our clients may switch to another competing platform. With the preventative approach, we can ensure our servers are always up.

Palo Alto Networks is a global leader in cybersecurity, providing top-tier protection to its customer base of over 90,000. Traditionally, customers relied on on-premise hardware firewalls, but the shift towards cloud-based solutions has driven a demand for more flexible and cost-effective security options. In response, Palo Alto Networks offers cloud security solutions that leverage its existing global device infrastructure. Customers only need to purchase licenses to activate cloud security features, tailoring protection to their specific needs for internal, external, or network environments. For customers seeking complete independence, Palo Alto Networks also provides interconnect licenses that eliminate the need for a service connection.

Prisma allows us to adopt a preventative approach. We can scan some containers before they go into cloud production. The only caveat is identifying the cloud environment in a production or non-production environment.

Prisma Cloud helped to take a preventative approach to cloud security. It helped prevent misconfigurations from ending up in the actual deployments. I have worked on that specific part of integrating Prisma Cloud's module called Checkov into a CI/CD pipeline. It allowed developers to scan the code of the deployment before building it and then address the findings detected by Prisma Cloud.

Prisma Cloud continuously scans the cloud assets we have, such as virtual machines, S3 buckets, IAM configurations, CloudTrail logs, and VPC flow logs. It continuously scans and generates alerts. There is also a feature for the outbound integration with Splunk, Teams, or Slack so that you can get alerts in these solutions.

Prisma Cloud is pretty good for helping us take a preventative approach to cloud security. We can have lock-in controls where a developer cannot deploy vulnerabilities that are critical. We can prevent them from doing it that way. It is excellent in that regard. I also like the preventive controls on the runtime side. If you see a runtime event, you could put options in place to prevent that specific command from running, or you can shut down the console, container pod, etc.

Prisma Cloud has features to detect anomalies, attack paths, and escalation privileges as well. It detects the root cause and lets us know the things in our infrastructure that can lead to the attack. We remediate them and secure our infrastructure.
