Cloud Threat Detection | Prisma - Palo Alto Networks

Accurate threat detection is essential for risk clarity

The dynamic, distributed nature of cloud environments often creates alerts that lack context, at a volume that can overwhelm security teams. Attempting to correlate logs, API metadata and signature-driven alerts can quickly flood teams with false positives instead of actionable insight. The key to high-fidelity alerts is threat intelligence sources with depth and breadth.

Cloud threat detection bolstered by multiple intelligence sources

Prisma™ Cloud combines rule- and behavior-based analytics and augments the data with the Prisma Cloud Intelligence Stream – a combination of data from over 30 unique sources, including commercial, open source and proprietary data sources across hosts, images and functions. Further enhanced with Palo Alto Networks threat intelligence from AutoFocus™ and WildFire^®, along with third-party sources like Qualys® and Tenable®, security teams rise above the noise to identify real threats, faster – ultimately reducing time to remediation.

Over 14 billion unique data points provide unrivaled threat intel for Prisma Cloud
