Description
Containers not requiring root-level permissions must run as a unique user account. To ensure accountability and prevent unauthenticated access to containers, the user the container is using to execute must be uniquely identified and authenticated to prevent potential misuse and compromise of the system.

Who does this work

7 NICE work roles and 5 EC-Council certifications.

This is an inference across published mappings, not a single claim by anyone. This check maps to a control, which maps to a Cybersecurity Framework outcome, which NIST assigns to the work roles below. EC-Council separately maps its certifications to those same roles.

A certification prepares someone for a role. It is not evidence that a holder is qualified, and neither NIST nor EC-Council has stated that any certification here addresses this check.

Work-role assignments published by NIST (NICE Framework Components 2.2.0 and the CSF 2.0 OLIR crosswalk). Certification mappings published by EC-Council.

Check Text (C-253536r1051115_chk)

Locate the node in which the Prisma Cloud Compute Console container is running. Determine the process owner for "app/server". Execute: "ps -aux | grep "/app/server" If the process is owned by root, this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-56939r840445_fix)

In the root directory of the extracted release tar file, modify the twistlock.cfg file's line: RUN_CONSOLE_AS_ROOT=false For Kubernetes deployment, perform these additional steps: When generating the twistlock_console.yaml deployment file, supply the --run-as-user flag. Linux/twistcli console export kubernetes --service-type ClusterIP --run-as-user 2674 Modify the resulting twistlock_console.yaml file to include fsGroup: 2674 within the Deployment pod specification's securityContext: securityContext: fsGroup: 2674 Add runAsGroup: 2674 to the container specification's securityContext: securityContext: runAsUser: 2674 runAsGroup: 2674
