Access to Prisma Cloud Compute must be managed based on user need and least privileged using external identity providers for authentication and grouping to role-based assignments when possible.
An XCCDF Rule
Description
<VulnDiscussion>Integration with an organization's existing identity management policies technologies reduces the threat of account compromise and misuse. Centralized authentication services provide additional functionality to fulfill security requirements: - Multifactor authentication. - Disabling users after a period of time. - Encrypted storage and transmission of secure information. - Secure authentication protocols such as LDAP over TLS or LDAPS using FIPS 140-2 approved encryption modules. - PKI-based authentication.

Configure Prisma Cloud Console for SAML-based authentication in which the SAML IdP enforces multifactor authentication (e.g., x509/smartcard authentication).
Navigate to Prisma Cloud Compute Console's Manage >> Authentication >> Identity Providers:
- Click "Add provider".
- For Protocol, select "SAML".
- For Identity provider, select provider.
