Kubernetes CIS Scans for EKS and OKE

jmadigan1 — Wed, 12 Apr 2023 17:16:31 GMT

We have Kubernetes deployments in AWS (EKS) and OCI (OKE). The Prisma Cloud compliance scans being run against these clusters are using the generic CIS Kubernetes 1.2 benchmark rather than using the CIS benchmarks that have been customized for EKS and OKE.

The use of the generic benchmark scan results in a number of findings that our DevOPS team have determined to be false positives, and other anomalies such as wrong file path because of differences in how these cloud providers implement Kubernetes.

I am looking for a way to force Prisma Cloud to scan OKE clusters against the OKE benchmark, and EKS clusters against the EKS benchmark to get more accurate scan results.

Hi,

Thank you for reaching to Palo Alto Networks Support. My name is Umer, and I am part of Prisma Cloud Compute Support team.

We currently has a feature request to add kubernetes specific CIS benchmark, and the request is under future consideration:

https://prismacloud.ideas.aha.io/ideas/TP-I-965

Future consideration flag suggest that product team has reviewed the request, and it will be implemented it in one of our future releases.

Please feel free to upvote on that request.

Regards,

Was this feature ever added to Palo Alto Prisma Cloud? Does Prisma Cloud support scanning of EKS, AKS, GKE using vendor specific CIS Benchmarks?

Based on the link provided to the original enhancement request, this was released in last year in July. This includes the benchmarks below:

CIS Kubernetes 1.6.0 CIS Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
Container Engine for Kubernetes(OKE) 1.0
CIS Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) 1.0
CIS Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) 1.0 CIS Docker 1.2.0

This excludes OpenShift, and cloud-specific flavors like ROSA (RedHat OpenShift in AWS)

We have increased the coverage for OpenShift compliance checks since 3.x. Check with your assigned Customer Success Engineer with the latest details on that

Thank you
