In Prisma Cloud, a policy is a set of one or more constraints or conditions that must be adhered to. Prisma Cloud provides predefined policies for configurations and access controls that adhere to established security best practices such as PCI, GDPR, ISO 27001:2013,and NIST, and a larger set of policies that enable you to validate security best practices with an impact beyond regulatory compliance. These Prisma Cloud default polices cannot be modified.

In addition to these predefined policies, you can create custom policies to monitor for violations and enforce your own organizational standards. You can use the Default policies as templates to create custom policy. After you set up the policies, any new or existing resources that violate these policies are automatically detected.

Prisma Cloud includes out-of-the-box (OOTB) policies that are part of the Prisma Cloud Recommended Policies Pack.
