Explanation

Prisma Public Cloud licenses on a per-workload model, meaning you pay based on how many cloud workloads (VMs, containers, serverless functions, etc.) are being monitored - this aligns the cost directly with the scope of your cloud security coverage. Alerts (A) are an output of monitoring, not a billing unit - generating more alerts would perversely punish good detection. Accounts (B) are too coarse a measure; a single account could host thousands of workloads or just one. Flow logs (D) are a data source ingested by Prisma, not a licensing metric.

Memory tip: Think "protect what you run" - workloads are what Prisma secures, so that's what you pay for.
