Prisma Cloud Compute Defender must reestablish communication to the Console via mutual TLS v1.2 WebSocket session.

Description
When the secure WebSocket session between the Prisma Cloud Compute Console and Defenders is disconnected, the Defender will continually attempt to reestablish the session. Without reauthentication, unidentified or unknown devices may be introduced; thereby facilitating malicious activity. The Console must be configured to remove a Defender that has not established a connection in a specified period of days.

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.
