Prisma Cloud Troubleshooting Support

  • Administrators should be aware of common Prisma Cloud issues they may encounter, as well as where they can go to get help if support from Palo Alto Networks is needed.
  • Common issues
    • Common issues may involve alerts not being triggered, the use of RQL to investigate security and compliance issues.
  • Monitoring deployments
    • AWS value-added services, Amazon GuardDuty and Amazon Inspector, can be used to augment the monitoring of your AWS public cloud deployments.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

In Prisma Cloud, a common issue is that alerts are not being generated when you first onboard your public cloud accounts.

Common Onboarding Issues

  • Issues with onboarding
    • These include issues with connecting to the cloud account, and ingesting resource and vulnerability data.
  • Issues with alert generation
    • In order to generate alerts, you must include your cloud accounts in an alert rule, and verify that the policies associated with the alert rule are enabled.
  • Issues with RQL queries
    • These can be caused by focusing the query on the wrong type of resource, or the fact that resources in a public cloud infrastructure can be ephemeral in nature and the resources may be deleted or terminated when we submit the query.
