ServiceNow alerts
ServiceNow is a workflow management platform.
It offers a number of security operations applications.
You can configure Prisma Cloud to route alerts to ServiceNow’s Security Incident Response application.
Prisma Cloud audits are mapped to a ServiceNow security incident as follows:
- Audits and incidents are mapped to individual ServiceNow security incidents.
- Vulnerabilities are aggregated by resource (currently image) and mapped to individual ServiceNow security incidents. ServiceNow short description field lists the resource. ServiceNow description field lists the details of each finding.
- Compliance issues are aggregated by resource (image/container/host) and mapped to individual ServiceNow security incidents. ServiceNow short description field lists the resource. ServiceNow description field lists the details of each finding.
Compliance alerts will be sent to ServiceNow in real time (right after compliance scan), unlike the other alert providers which send compliance alerts every 24 hours.
Compliance alerts will be sent if the resource is new, or if there’s a difference in the number of compliance issues for this resource after its scan. All the compliance issues of the resource will be sent (not only the new ones).
