Below are just a few examples of its capabilities around prevention from attacks and vulnerabilities. Do you have a more specific need you are trying to meet? Prisma Cloud Application security or Prisma Cloud Runtime protection? If you can tell me more about your environment I could tailor my response accordingly.

Thank you @LMegrelis for response.
My question is regarding how the Palo Alto Networks (PANW) team protects the Prisma Cloud tenant and its underlying infrastructure from vulnerabilities and attacks. I am not inquiring about how customers secure their environments using Prisma Cloud, but rather how PANW ensures the security of the Prisma Cloud service itself. For instance, what measures does PANW have in place to mitigate Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks targeting Prisma Cloud, or to address situations where a cloud service provider's infrastructure, on which Prisma Cloud relies, experiences a compromise?

Hello!

Thanks for clarifying.

The Prisma Cloud architecture uses Cloudflare for DNS resolution of web requests and for protection against distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks. The documentation includes a network flow diagram that outlines the infrastructure within a region.

Please see our documentation on Prisma Cloud DataFlow

https://docs.prismacloud.io/en/enterprise-edition/content-collections/get-started/prisma-cloud-platform#prisma-cloud-data-flow

Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks

Thank you @LMegrelis for sharing that document. While I had seen it before, your re-sharing prompted me to review it again. In doing so, I discovered the Palo Alto Networks Trust 360 program and was able to gather all the relevant information.
