    Prisma Cloud

    now offers new features that create greater customer confidence in developing applications which are protected across the code, build, deploy and runtime phases of the application lifecycle, including:



    • Prisma Cloud Secrets Security



      seamlessly identifies exposed secrets across the entire application lifecycle. If undetected, threat actors can easily take advantage of a single exposed secret to manipulate and harm the entire application. The continuous scans proactively identify and alert developers of hard-coded secrets (usernames, passwords, tokens, etc.) in integrated development environments (IDE) as well as exposure risk in runtime.

    • Prisma Cloud API Risk Profiling

      helps teams understand and prioritize risk based on 200+ factors for all APIs in an environment. In a single view, organizations can understand an API’s complete path, the method that is used to call, the number of times it has been called, what protections are enabled, its risk factors, and vulnerabilities in the underlying workload.

    • Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM) Integration with AWS IAM Identity Center

      allows for the ingestion of data from IAM Identity Center and all AWS-supported identity providers (IdPs). This data will be aggregated with other data sources in

      Prisma Cloud

      to automate cloud permissions mapping and help enforce consistent least-privileged access across multicloud environments.

  • Cortex stops more threats with Active ASM and adds cloud-native SOAR.

    Palo Alto Networks industry-leading SOC solutions give organizations the ability to shift from dozens of siloed SOC tools to Cortex

    ®

    and unleash the power of analytics, AI and automation:

    • New from Cortex Xpanse

      , the leader in attack surface management, is



      Xpanse Active Attack Surface Management (ASM


      )



      , a capability that gives defenders the tools not only to see their exposures instantly but also to shut them down automatically. Xpanse ASM gives organizations the following new tools: Active Discovery, Active Learning and Active Response. Xpanse is used today by some of the most complex and demanding organizations in the world, including the recently


      announced


      multiyear deal to equip the Department of Defense with Internet Operations Management capabilities.

    • Introducing Cortex XSOAR 8.0

      , which delivers full XSOAR capabilities as a SaaS offering, removes the need for customers to manage their own systems and adds the easy deployment and scalability of a cloud service.
