QuestionQ14

Cloud Posture Security

A customer that has a large cloud environment must conduct a vulnerability assessment. In this situation, the customer is not authorized to install agents but owns the cloud environments.

Which capability satisfies the customer’s requirements?

  • A Cortex Agent for Cloud
  • B Agentless discovery engine
  • C Cortex VM Broker
  • D Agentless disk scanning
Explanation

Agentless disk scanning performs vulnerability scans by analyzing cloud workload disks or snapshots through authorized cloud-provider access, so it provides vulnerability assessment without requiring an agent to be installed on the workload. The Discovery Engine supplies asset inventory and security-posture visibility rather than disk-based vulnerability scanning.
