Host scanning
Prisma Cloud scans all hosts where Defender is installed.
Defender scans hosts for the following types of vulnerabilities:
- Host configuration: Vulnerabilities in the host setup.
- Docker daemon configuration: Vulnerabilities that stem from misconfiguring your Docker daemons. Docker daemon derives its configuration from various files, including /etc/sysconfig/docker or /etc/default/docker. Misconfigured daemons affect all container instances on a host.
- Docker daemon configuration files: Vulnerabilities that arise from improperly securing critical configuration files with the correct permissions.
- Docker security operations: Recommendations and reminders for extending your current security best practices to include containers.
