  Explanation

  The Cloud Security Assessment report is a PDF report that summarizes the risks from open alerts in the monitored cloud accounts for a specific cloud type. The report includes an executive summary and a list of policy violations, including a page with details for each policy that includes the description and the compliance standards that are associated with it, the number of resources that passed and failed the check within the specified time period.

  D. twistcli security scan
  B. twistcli images scan --address

  ---

  Explanation

  The twistcli images scan command, when used with the --address flag, connects to Prisma Cloud Console to scan the specified container image.

• Question 234:

  Which option shows the steps to install the Console in a Kubernetes Cluster?

  A. Download the Console and Defender image Generate YAML for Defender Deploy Defender YAML using kubectl
  B. Download and extract release tarball Generate YAML for Console Deploy Console YAML using kubectl
  C. Download the Console and Defender image Download YAML for Defender from the document site Deploy Defender YAML using kubectl
  D. Download and extract release tarball Download the YAML for Console Deploy Console YAML using kubectl
  B. Download and extract release tarball Generate YAML for Console Deploy Console YAML using kubectl

  ---

  Explanation

  The installation of the Prisma Cloud Console in a Kubernetes cluster involves a series of steps that start with preparing the necessary deployment configurations, typically provided as YAML files. The process begins by downloading and extracting the release tarball, which contains the necessary files and instructions for the deployment. After extracting the tarball, you generate YAML files for the Console deployment. These YAML files define the Kubernetes resources needed to deploy and run the Console, such as Deployments, Services, and ConfigMaps. Finally, you deploy the Console by applying the generated YAML files using the kubectl command, which communicates with the Kubernetes API to create the specified resources in your cluster. This process is aligned with Kubernetes best practices for deploying applications and is indicative of the steps required for deploying complex applications like the Prisma Cloud Console. The method ensures that all necessary configurations and dependencies are correctly defined and deployed in the Kubernetes environment.

• Question 235:

  Which statement accurately characterizes SSO Integration on Prisma Cloud?

  A. Prisma Cloud supports IdP initiated SSO, and its SAML endpoint supports the POST and GET methods.
  B. Okta, Azure Active Directory, PingID, and others are supported via SAML.
  C. An administrator can Configure different Identity Providers (IdP) for all the cloud accounts that Prisma Cloud monitors.
  D. An administrator who needs to access the Prisma Cloud API can use SSO after configuration.
  B. Okta, Azure Active Directory, PingID, and others are supported via SAML.

  ---

  Explanation

  Prisma Cloud supports Single Sign-On (SSO) integration through Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), enabling users to authenticate using their existing identity providers (IdPs) such as Okta, Azure Active Directory, PingID, among others. This SSO integration allows for a seamless user authentication experience, where users can log in to Prisma Cloud using their credentials managed by their organization's IdP. The SAML protocol facilitates this by allowing secure exchange of authentication and authorization data between the IdP and Prisma Cloud. This integration enhances security by centralizing user authentication, reducing the number of passwords users need to remember, and enabling organizations to enforce their security policies, such as multi-factor authentication (MFA) and password complexity, across their cloud security tools. SAML support is a common feature in cloud security platforms for integrating with various IdPs, making it a verified approach for Prisma Cloud as well.

• Question 236:

  A customer has a requirement to terminate any Container from image topSecret:latest when a process named ransomWare is executed. How should the administrator Configure Prisma Cloud Compute to satisfy this requirement?

  A. set the Container model to manual relearn and set the default runtime rule to block for process protection.
  B. set the Container model to relearn and set the default runtime rule to prevent for process protection.
  C. add a new runtime policy targeted at a specific Container name, add ransomWare process into the denied process list, and set the action to prevent .
  D. choose copy into rule for the Container, add a ransomWare process into the denied process list, and set the action to block .
  C. add a new runtime policy targeted at a specific Container name, add ransomWare process into the denied process list, and set the action to prevent .

  ---

  Explanation

  To terminate any Container from the image "topSecret:latest" when a process named "ransomWare" is executed, the administrator should create a new runtime policy in Prisma Cloud Compute specifically targeting the container in question. By adding the "ransomWare" process to the denied process list within this policy and setting the action to "prevent," Prisma Cloud Compute will actively monitor for the execution of the specified process within the targeted container and take preventive action to terminate the container if the process is detected. This approach allows for precise, targeted security measures that address specific threats identified by the organization, thereby enhancing the overall security posture and protecting sensitive workloads from potential compromise.

• Question 239:

  Which RQL will trigger the following audit event activity?

  

  A. event from cloud.audit_logs where operation = ConsoleLogin AND user = `root'
  B. event from cloud.audit_logs where cloud.service = `s3.amazonaws.com' AND json.rule = $.userAgent contains `parrot'
  C. event from cloud.audit_logs where operation IN (`cloudsql.instances.update',`cloudsql.sslCerts.create',`cloudsql.instances.create',`cloudsql.instance')
  D. event from cloud.audit_logs where operation IN (`GetBucketWebsite', `PutBucketWebsite', `DeleteBucketWebsite')
  A. event from cloud.audit_logs where operation = ConsoleLogin AND user = `root'

  ---

  Explanation

  Event Query- Used to detect and investigate console and API access events, monitor privileged activities, detect account compromise, and detect unusual user behavior in your cloud environments. See Event Query Attributes and Examples (https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/prisma/prisma-cloud/prisma-cloud-rql-reference/rql-reference/event-query#id7f21ba55-c711-4996-be59-3e6ce80ea9e4) The RQL "event from cloud.audit_logs where operation = ConsoleLogin AND user = `root'' searches for console login operations performed by a root user.
