    Credentials Store

    Your container environments can use many third party services across multiple cloud providers. To improve accessibility and reusability, Prisma Cloud manages all credentials in a central encrypted store. Prisma Cloud uses these credentials for the following integrations.
    • Scanning container registries, serverless functions, and others.
    • Alerting in third party services such as email, Slack, ServiceNow, and others.
    • Deploying and managing Defender DaemonSets from the Prisma Cloud Console UI.
    • Injecting secrets from secret stores into containers at runtime.
    The following diagram shows the architecture of the the credentials store.
    To access the credential store, go to
    Manage > Authentication > Credentials Store
    . If credentials are in use, you can’t delete them. To see where credentials are used, click on an entry in the credentials store table, and review the
    Usages
     list.
    To refresh a credential’s values, you don’t need to delete and set up the integration again. If an integration uses a credential, and you edit its parameters, for example the username or password, etc. Prisma Cloud propagates the new values automatically to the right places in the product.
