According to Anh Tien Vu, Industry Principal, Global Cybersecurity Research, Frost & Sullivan,“Prisma Cloud distinguishes itself from other CNAPP solutions by offering a platform that covers five critical cloud security areas, providing organizations with best-in-class security across the entire software development lifecycle (SDLC). Palo Alto Networks’ prevention-focused approach to cloud security as a point of differentiation from many other emerging CNAPP providers that primarily provide visibility and compliance checks for risk management, with limited capability for prevention control.”
