PSE-PRISMACLOUD practice question 12 of 25
Which Amazon Web Services security service can provide host vulnerability information to Prisma Public Cloud?
Full set: 115 questionsAmazon Inspector is the native AWS automated vulnerability management service designed to continually scan AWS workloads, such as EC2 instances (hosts), for software vulnerabilities and unintended network exposure. Prisma Cloud can ingest security findings from various AWS services, typically through integration with AWS Security Hub. Amazon Inspector forwards its findings about host vulnerabilities to AWS Security Hub, which Prisma Cloud can then pull in. This allows security teams to view vulnerability data generated by the native AWS service directly within the Prisma Cloud console, consolidating security posture information from multiple sources into a single view.
A. Shield: AWS Shield is a managed Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection service. It does not perform host vulnerability scanning.
C. GuardDuty: AWS GuardDuty is a threat detection service that analyzes logs for malicious activity. It identifies threats, not pre-existing software vulnerabilities on a host.
D. Amazon Web Services WAF: AWS WAF is a web application firewall that protects web applications from common exploits at the application layer, not a host vulnerability scanner.
