What is the default namespace created by Defender DaemonSet during deployment?

  1. Redlock
  2. Defender
  3. Twistlock
  4. Default

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

During the deployment of the Defender DaemonSet in Prisma Cloud, the default namespace created is "Defender." This namespace is specifically used to organize the resources associated with Prisma Cloud Defenders within the Kubernetes environment. The "Defender" namespace helps in segregating the Defender components from other applications or services running in the cluster, thereby facilitating easier management and monitoring of security-related resources.



Which three OWASP protections are part of Prisma Cloud Web-Application and API Security (WAAS) rule? (Choose three.)

  1. DoS Protection
  2. Local file inclusion
  3. SQL injection
  4. Suspicious binary
  5. Shellshock

Answer(s): B,C,E

Explanation:

In the Prisma Cloud Web-Application and API Security (WAAS) rules, protections against OWASP- recognized vulnerabilities like Local file inclusion, SQL injection, and Shellshock are included. Local file inclusion involves unauthorized access to files on the server, potentially leading to sensitive information disclosure. SQL injection targets data-driven applications by inserting malicious SQL statements into an entry field, while Shellshock exploits vulnerabilities in Bash, a widely used Unix shell, to execute arbitrary commands. These protections are part of Prisma Cloud's comprehensive approach to securing web applications and APIs against common and severe vulnerabilities.



Which of the following is displayed in the asset inventory?

  1. EC2 instances
  2. Asset tags
  3. SSO users
  4. Federated users

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

The asset inventory in cloud security platforms like Prisma Cloud typically displays a wide range of cloud resources, including EC2 instances. EC2 instances are virtual servers in Amazon's Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) for running applications on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure. The asset inventory provides visibility into these instances, allowing security teams to monitor their configuration, security posture, and compliance status. This visibility is crucial for identifying misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and ensuring that all EC2 instances adhere to the organization's security policies and compliance requirements.



What is the frequency to create a compliance report? (Choose two.)

  1. Weekly
  2. One time
  3. Monthly
  4. Recurring

Answer(s): B,D

Explanation:

In Prisma Cloud, compliance reports can be generated on a one-time basis or on a recurring schedule. The option for a one-time report allows users to generate a specific report instantly based on the current state of the environment. The recurring option enables users to set up automatic generation of reports at regular intervals, such as weekly or monthly, to track compliance over time. This functionality ensures continuous compliance monitoring and helps in maintaining security standards across cloud resources.



When configuring SSO how many IdP providers can be enabled for all the cloud accounts monitored by Prisma Cloud?

  1. 2
  2. 4
  3. 1
  4. 3

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Prisma Cloud supports configuring Single Sign-On (SSO) with Identity Providers (IdPs) to streamline user authentication processes. However, for all the cloud accounts monitored by Prisma Cloud, only one IdP provider can be enabled at any given time. This limitation ensures a unified authentication mechanism across the platform, reducing complexity and potential security risks associated with managing multiple IdP configurations.
