Question

A customer with multiple virtual private clouds (VPCs) in Amazon Web Services (AWS) protected by the cloud-native firewall experiences a cloud breach. As a result, malware spreads quickly across the VPCs, infecting several workloads. Which minimum solution should be proposed to prevent similar incidents in the future?

Options

  • APurchase a software credit pool for flexible Cloud NGFW deployment across the VPCs.
  • BDeploy a single Cloud NGFW.
  • CSubscribe to Palo Alto Networks Advanced Threat Protection for the cloud-native firewall.
  • DImplement a Cloud NGFW for each VPC.

Explanation

The customer's AWS environment, with multiple VPCs protected by a cloud-native firewall, experienced a breach due to malware spreading across VPCs, indicating inadequate segmentation and visibility. The Palo Alto Networks Systems Engineer Professional - Software Firewall documentation provides guidance on securing multi-VPC AWS environments with Cloud NGFW, focusing on preventing lateral movement and enhancing threat prevention. Option D: Deploying a Cloud NGFW instance in each VPC ensures localized traffic inspection, segmentation, and control, preventing malware from spreading laterally across VPCs. Cloud NGFW for AWS supports a distributed deployment model, allowing each VPC to have its own firewall instance integrated with AWS services (e.g., VPC routing, Security Groups) to enforce policies, block threats, and maintain visibility.
