### 🤖 Lighthouse AI — Finding Skills
|
||||
|
||||
<Note>
|
||||
This feature is available exclusively in **Prowler Cloud** and **Prowler Private Cloud** with a [subscription](https://prowler.com/pricing).
|
||||
</Note>
|
||||
|
||||
Lighthouse AI now embeds a Skills menu on every finding, answering the questions an analyst actually asks. **Contextual Fix** produces the fix for the finding, **Triage Decision** judges whether it is real and closes it out when it is not, and **Systemic Scope** determines whether the problem is a one-off or everywhere. A free-form "Ask Lighthouse anything" prompt sits in the same menu, and each run shows its progress and offers follow-up actions such as creating a Jira issue or muting the finding.
|
||||

### ☁️ Azure Management Group Onboarding
|

This feature is available exclusively in **Prowler Cloud** and **Prowler Private Cloud** with a [subscription](https://prowler.com/pricing).
|
||||
</Note>
|
||||
|
||||
Azure subscriptions no longer onboard one at a time. Choose "Add Multiple Subscriptions With Azure Management Group" in the add-provider wizard, enter the Microsoft Entra tenant ID, and authenticate once with a single tenant-wide service principal: Prowler discovers the entire management-group hierarchy under the tenant root, lets you select the subscriptions to onboard, and creates their providers with the management-group structure preserved. Azure now matches the one-step onboarding that AWS Organizations and GCP organizations already have.
|
||||

### ✅ Findings Triage — Verify MANUAL Findings as PASS
|
||||
|
||||
<Note>
|
||||
This feature is available exclusively in **Prowler Cloud** and **Prowler Private Cloud** with a [subscription](https://prowler.com/pricing).
|
||||
</Note>
|
||||
|
||||
Checks that require human judgment report `MANUAL` findings. For these findings, and only for them, the triage status selector now offers **Resolved**: choosing it asks for the required written evidence and verifies the finding as passing. The finding then reports an effective `PASS` while preserving the raw `MANUAL` scan result, across findings, finding groups, compliance reports, and scans, with the attestation's author, evidence, and validity always visible. Attestations expire automatically after 90 days, or as soon as a new scan reports a real failure, returning the finding to the review queue.

### ☁️ Prowler Cloud MCP — Organizations Management and Grouped Jira Dispatch
|
||||
|

This feature is available exclusively in **Prowler Cloud** and **Prowler Private Cloud** with a [subscription](https://prowler.com/pricing).
|
||||
</Note>
|
||||
|
||||
The hosted Prowler Cloud MCP server adds eight organization tools, so an agent can onboard and manage entire cloud organizations end to end: create the organization, discover its accounts, subscriptions, and projects, apply the selection, and manage the resulting providers. The tools cover AWS Organizations, GCP organizations, and Azure tenant root management groups, and they are available to Lighthouse AI.
|
||||
|
||||
`prowler_send_findings_to_jira` also gains Cloud-only dispatch capabilities: select failed findings by check IDs against the latest completed scan, and send them in grouped mode, one Jira work item per check listing up to 50 affected resources, with per-group error reporting.
|
||||

||||

### 🕸️ Attack Paths — Grouped Graph with Outcome Destinations
|

|
||||
</Note>
|
||||
|
||||
The Attack Paths graph now reads from source to destination. Resources of the same class collapse into a single expandable node with a count, clicking reveals its members, and every path terminates in an explicit outcome node naming the destination impact: code execution, privilege escalation, public exposure, or resource inventory. The per-account hub node is gone, and the clicked resource stays highlighted while its findings are expanded.

### 📚 New Compliance Framework — CMMC 2.0
|
||||
|
||||
The Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) is the certification the US Department of Defense requires from contractors and suppliers that handle federal contract data. Prowler now includes CMMC 2.0 as a universal framework with all 149 requirements defined by the CMMC Program rule (32 CFR Part 170), organized in its three levels:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Level 1 (Foundational):** 15 requirements for the basic safeguarding of Federal Contract Information, from FAR 52.204-21.
|
||||
- **Level 2 (Advanced):** 110 requirements from NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2, protecting Controlled Unclassified Information.
|
||||
- **Level 3 (Expert):** 24 enhanced requirements from NIST SP 800-172 for the most sensitive programs.
|
||||
|
||||
Requirements map to Prowler checks across AWS, Azure, GCP, Alibaba Cloud, Oracle Cloud, and Microsoft 365, so one framework reports the compliance posture of the whole estate.

#### Microsoft 365
|
||||
|
||||
Twenty new Entra ID checks expand the coverage of CIS Microsoft 365 Foundations Benchmark v7.0.0:
|
||||
|
||||
- **Password protection:** custom banned password list, on-premises enforcement, and lockout threshold and duration.
|
||||
- **Default user permissions:** security group and Microsoft 365 group creation restricted, and guest invitations limited to allowed domains.
|
||||
- **Conditional Access:** high and medium sign-in risk blocked, authentication transfer blocked, untrusted locations blocked, trusted named locations defined, sign-in frequency enforced, and token protection enforced.
|
||||
- **Sessions and authentication methods:** idle session timeout configured, email one-time passcodes disabled, and Microsoft Authenticator context shown.
|
||||
- **PIM and access reviews:** approval required to activate the Global Administrator and Privileged Role Administrator roles, and access reviews configured for guest users and privileged roles.
|
||||

#### Jira Operations
|
||||
|
||||
- **`prowler_get_jira_issue_types`** - List the issue types available in a Jira project, fetched live from Jira
|
||||
- **`prowler_send_findings_to_jira`** - Create one Jira work item per finding, with its severity, resource, risk, and remediation steps
|
||||
- **`prowler_send_findings_to_jira`** - Create Jira work items from findings, each carrying the check title, severity, status, provider, region, resource, risk, and remediation steps. Select the findings either by ID with `finding_ids`, or — on Prowler Cloud only — by check with `check_ids`, and choose between one work item per finding or one per check with `dispatch_mode`
|
||||
|
||||
<Note>
|
||||
`check_ids` and `dispatch_mode` are **Prowler Cloud only**:
|
||||
|
||||
- **`check_ids`** - Send the failing findings of a check (for example `s3_bucket_public_access`) without listing their IDs. Prowler resolves them server-side, taking only the failed findings of the latest completed scan of every provider. Get the check IDs from `prowler_list_finding_groups`. Exactly one of `finding_ids` or `check_ids` is required — Prowler combines both filters, so sending both would only dispatch their intersection. A Local MCP Server rejects `check_ids` with a client error.
|
||||
- **`dispatch_mode`** - `individual` (the default) creates one work item per finding. `grouped` creates one work item per check instead, listing up to 50 affected resources and linking back to the finding group in Prowler Cloud, which keeps a noisy check to a single ticket. Grouped dispatch only covers failed, unmuted findings of the latest completed scan of every provider. A Local MCP Server ignores `dispatch_mode` instead of rejecting it, and creates one work item per finding.
|
||||
|
||||
In `grouped` mode the response counters change meaning: `created_count` counts work items (one per check) rather than findings, `failed_count` counts the entries of the new `failed_groups` field, and `failed_groups` details each failure with its reason and the `check_id` whose work item could not be created.
|
||||
</Note>
|
||||
|
||||
<Warning>
|
||||
`prowler_send_findings_to_jira` creates real work items that Prowler cannot delete or update afterwards. Only retry the same dispatch when the previous response returned `safe_to_retry: true`, otherwise the work items already created are duplicated. Combining `check_ids` with the default `individual` mode opens one work item per failing resource, which can be hundreds of them — use `dispatch_mode="grouped"` to keep it to one per check.

### Organizations
|
||||
|
||||
Tools for onboarding a cloud provider organization as a whole — an AWS Organization, an Azure tenant with its management groups, or a GCP organization with its folders. An organization holds org-level credentials, discovers the real account, subscription, or project structure in the cloud, and turns a selection from that discovery into Prowler providers linked into a hierarchy of nodes. Every tool that changes something — creating, updating, deleting, discovering, applying a discovery, or adjusting provider membership — requires the **Manage Providers** permission; listing and reading do not.
|
||||
|
||||
<Note>
|
||||
Use these tools for the whole organization. To register providers one by one, use the [Provider Management](#provider-management) tools instead; to build arbitrary RBAC buckets of providers, use provider groups.
|
||||
</Note>

||||

||||
- **`prowler_cloud_get_organization`** - Get one organization in full: attributes, linked providers, credentials status, latest discovery, and the OU / management group / folder hierarchy. Set `include_hierarchy` to `false` to skip the tree on large organizations
|
||||
- **`prowler_cloud_create_organization`** - Register an organization, optionally storing its org-level credentials in the same call. Idempotent: an organization with the same type and external id is reused and its credentials rotated, reported as `created: false`
|
||||
- **`prowler_cloud_update_organization`** - Rename an organization, replace its metadata, and/or create or rotate its org-level credentials. `org_type` and `external_id` are immutable after creation
|
||||
- **`prowler_cloud_delete_organization`** - Delete an organization, its entire hierarchy, and every linked provider
|
||||
- **`prowler_cloud_discover_organization`** - Enumerate the real cloud structure: AWS accounts and OUs, Azure subscriptions and management groups, or GCP projects and folders. Each item comes back with its registration state so you can choose what to onboard
|
||||
- **`prowler_cloud_apply_organization_discovery`** - Turn a discovery selection into Prowler providers and hierarchy nodes
|
||||
- **`prowler_cloud_manage_organization_providers`** - Manually `add`, `replace`, or `remove` the providers linked to an organization or to one of its hierarchy nodes. Providers are detached, never deleted

- **At least one scan has completed** on the configured AWS provider and produced graph data. Attack Paths scans run automatically alongside regular security scans, no separate configuration is required.
|
||||
|
||||
## How Attack Paths Scans Work
|
||||
|
||||
Attack Paths scans are generated automatically when a security scan runs on an AWS provider. Each completed scan produces graph data that maps relationships between IAM principals, policies, trust configurations, and other resources.
|
||||
Attack Paths scans are generated automatically when a security scan runs on an AWS provider. When a scan produces graph data, it maps relationships between IAM principals, policies, trust configurations, and other resources. A scan can complete without producing graph data.
|
||||
|
||||
Once the scan finishes and graph data is ready, the scan appears in the Attack Paths scan table with a **Completed** status and a check in the **Graph** column. Scans that are still queued or running remain visible, but they cannot be selected until graph data is ready.
|
||||
When graph data is ready, the scan appears in the Attack Paths scan table with a check in the **Graph** column and can be selected regardless of its current status. Scans without graph data remain visible but cannot be selected. If a new scan cycle starts after graph data is available, the previous cycle remains available while the new scan runs.

Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud group resources of the same class and graph level into expandable nodes. Built-in query graphs also end with a query outcome, which states the result that the path can lead to.
|
||||
|
||||
Prowler Local Server keeps the flat graph view, including the provider root. Custom openCypher queries do not have a catalog outcome, so their graphs do not include an outcome node.
|
||||
|
||||
### Node Types
|
||||
|
||||
- **Provider root nodes:** Represent the AWS account or provider root for the selected scan.
|
||||
- **Resource nodes:** Represent cloud resources such as IAM roles, policies, EC2 instances, security groups, and S3 buckets.
|
||||
- **Grouped resource nodes:** Represent multiple resources of the same class in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud. A number in the upper-right corner shows how many resources the node contains. A red outline indicates that one or more resources in the group have findings.
|
||||
- **Resource nodes:** Represent individual cloud resources such as IAM roles, policies, EC2 instances, security groups, and S3 buckets. A class with one resource remains an individual node.
|
||||
- **Internet nodes:** Represent exposure from the public internet.
|
||||
- **Finding nodes:** Represent Prowler findings linked to resources. Finding colors indicate risk level, such as critical, high, medium, or low.
|
||||
- **Outcome nodes:** Mark the terminal result of a built-in query in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud. The orange node displays outcomes such as **Code execution**, **Privilege escalation**, **Public exposure**, or **Resource inventory**. A dashed ring and the label **Latent outcome** indicate an inventory or another partial outcome.
|
||||
- **Provider root nodes:** Represent the AWS account or provider root in the Prowler Local Server flat graph.

### Expanding Resource Groups
|
||||
|
||||
In Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud, a node with a number in its upper-right corner represents a resource group. The number is the total number of resources in the group.

|
||||
- Double-click any resource revealed from a group to collapse that group.

||||
- Click **Collapse all groups** in the graph toolbar to close every expanded group. This control appears only while at least one group is expanded.
