Palo Alto Networks introduced the CI/CD Security module to provide integrated software delivery pipeline security as part of our code-to-cloud capabilities in Prisma Cloud's CNAPP platform.

By securing the CI/CD environment and protecting against open source vulnerabilities with software composition analysis, Prisma Cloud is the most complete security platform for seamlessly protecting the entire engineering ecosystem.

The CI/CD Security module enables DevOps and security teams to better collaborate and improve security outcomes throughout the application life cycle. By adding CI/CD Security into the Prisma Cloud platform that already includes — Secrets Scanning, Software Composition Analysis, Infrastructure as Code Security — organizations are able to optimize security and risk prevention throughout the entire software delivery pipeline, achieving a holistic and comprehensive security oversight which cannot be achieved with individual, siloed solutions.

Ankur Shah, senior vice president, Prisma Cloud, Palo Alto Networks, said: "A major challenge in securing CI/CD pipelines is visibility. The myriad of third-party tools and applications running in development environments makes it almost impossible for security teams to determine if they are correctly configured. The integration of Cider's capabilities secures the CI/CD environment and gives Prisma Cloud customers the ability to analyze individual tools, visualize how they interact with applications and each other, and identify and remediate risks."

The Prisma Cloud CI/CD Security module will be available this Summer, 2023.
