Full set: 259 questions
Answer options
A: IBM Cloud Object Storage
B: AWS S3 buckets Correct answer
C: Oracle Object Storage
D: Google storage class
Correct Answer:
B. AWS S3 buckets
Explanation

Prisma Cloud Data Security provides discovery, classification, and malware scanning for data at rest in public cloud storage. It natively supports scanning objects within AWS S3 buckets, Azure Blob Storage, and Google Cloud Storage. AWS S3 is one of the primary and explicitly supported storage types for this functionality. The service integrates directly with these cloud providers to identify and protect sensitive data stored within them.

Why Incorrect

A. IBM Cloud Object Storage is not a natively supported data store for Prisma Cloud Data Security scanning.
C. Oracle Object Storage is not listed as a supported platform for Prisma Cloud's Data Security module.
D. "Google storage class" refers to attributes within Google Cloud Storage (e.g., Standard, Nearline), not the storage service itself, which is "Google Cloud Storage."
