Prisma Cloud
Prisma Cloud is a comprehensive cloud security platform developed by Palo Alto Networks that provides visibility, compliance, and threat protection across multi-cloud environments. It integrates with major cloud providers like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud to monitor and secure cloud infrastructure, applications, and data in real-time. The platform helps organizations manage security risks, enforce policies, and detect vulnerabilities through automated scanning and analytics.
Developers should learn Prisma Cloud when working in cloud-native or hybrid environments to ensure security best practices are implemented from development through deployment. It is particularly useful for DevOps and security teams needing to automate compliance checks, monitor for misconfigurations, and protect against threats in dynamic cloud setups. Use cases include securing containerized applications, managing cloud access, and meeting regulatory requirements like GDPR or HIPAA.
