πŸ€– Lighthouse AI β€” Finding Skills

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
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 β€œAsk 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.Lighthouse AI Skills menu on a finding resourceRead more in the Lighthouse AI documentation.

☁️ Azure Management Group Onboarding

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
Azure subscriptions no longer onboard one at a time. Choose β€œAdd 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.Azure onboarding method selector with the Management Group optionRead more in the Azure Management Groups documentation.

βœ… Findings Triage β€” Verify MANUAL Findings as PASS

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
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.Triage status selector offering Resolved on a MANUAL findingManual Pass details showing evidence, author, and validityRead more in the Findings Triage documentation.

☁️ Prowler Cloud MCP β€” Organizations Management and Grouped Jira Dispatch

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
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.Read more in the Prowler MCP tools documentation and its Jira operations reference.

πŸ•ΈοΈ Attack Paths β€” Grouped Graph with Outcome Destinations

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
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.Attack Paths graph from the Internet to a public exposure outcome nodeExplore the full Attack Paths query catalog at Prowler Hub.Read more in the Attack Paths documentation.

πŸ“š New Compliance Framework β€” 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.Read more in the Compliance documentation.

πŸ” Checks

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.

πŸ“Œ Compliance Watchlist

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
Compliance Watchlist keeps the frameworks an organization tracks in one shared list. Pin frameworks from any compliance view, manage several at once through a searchable catalog, and filter the Compliance section to show only the pinned frameworks.The Overview page now reports the latest score for every pinned framework, while finding details highlight the watched frameworks associated with each check. Universal frameworks remain a single watchlist entry across provider views, keeping the organization’s priorities consistent everywhere.Compliance Watchlist editorRead more in the Compliance Watchlist documentation.

πŸ” SAML SSO - Multiple Email Domains

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
One SAML configuration can now authorize a primary email domain and up to 19 additional domains through the same Identity Provider. Every domain shares one stable Assertion Consumer Service (ACS) URL based on the primary domain, so subsidiaries, acquired companies, regional domains, and multiple brands no longer require separate tenants or duplicated SAML applications.Domain ownership remains tenant-bound throughout the authentication flow. During service provider-initiated sign-in, the discovery domain and the domain asserted by the Identity Provider must resolve to the same tenant before provisioning continues.SAML configuration with multiple email domainsRead more in the SAML SSO documentation.

πŸ‘₯ User Sign-In Methods

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
The Users table now shows each account’s sign-in methods as tags, including email/password, Google, GitHub, SAML with linked domains, and Partner SSO. Accounts without a reported method display a placeholder.Users table showing sign-in method tags

πŸ•ΈοΈ Attack Paths - Expanded AWS Privilege-Escalation Coverage

Attack Paths adds 20 AWS privilege-escalation queries from pathfinding.cloud, while iam_policy_allows_privilege_escalation gains 22 additional escalation combinations.The new coverage includes service iam:PassRole paths across AWS Batch, Braket, Cognito Identity, ECS, EMR, EMR Serverless, GameLift, Glue, EC2 Image Builder, Kinesis Analytics, HealthOmics, EventBridge Scheduler, Systems Manager, and Step Functions. It also covers existing-resource abuse, permissions-boundary removal, role assumption, and IAM Identity Center permission-set policy injection.The query catalog now exposes each AWS query’s outcome category, distinguishing code execution, privilege escalation, public exposure, and resource inventory.Explore the full Attack Paths query catalog at Prowler Hub.Read more in the Attack Paths documentation.

πŸ” Checks

Microsoft 365

Twelve new checks expand the coverage of CIS Microsoft 365 Foundations Benchmark v7.0.0:
  • Admin Center: Shared Bookings is disabled.
  • Defender: Priority account protection and strict preset security policies are enabled.
  • Entra ID: Six checks cover device registration restrictions, local administrator behavior, device limits, LAPS, and BitLocker key visibility.
  • Exchange Online: Personal accounts in Outlook on the web are disabled and Direct Send is rejected.
  • Microsoft Teams: External access from trial-only tenants is blocked.
Explore all Microsoft 365 checks at Prowler Hub.

πŸ” Security

  • Prowler API, UI, SDK, and MCP container images now publish per-architecture Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs) and build-provenance attestations. Prowler Cloud production and Prowler Private Cloud images carry the same attestations.
  • SDK and API container builds verify the checksums of downloaded PowerShell, Trivy, and zizmor binaries before installation.
  • Grype now complements Trivy across the container-image security gates, detecting components and vulnerabilities that manifest-based scanners can miss and blocking fixable high and critical findings.
  • aiohttp was upgraded to 3.14.3 to address CVE-2026-69244. cryptography was upgraded to 50.0.0 to address CVE-2026-69247 and CVE-2026-69249.

πŸ’¬ Lighthouse AI β€” Context-Aware Chat and a Bigger Toolbox

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
Lighthouse AI is now aware of your working context when in Prowler Cloud. Messages carry page-aware context β€” the page you are on, the finding or resource open in the side panel, and its metadata β€” so β€œexplain this” just works, and each page offers concise contextual suggestions to start from.Lighthouse AI answering "explain this finding" from the side panel, with the page context chip highlighted in the composerLighthouse also gained access to every tool family the Prowler MCP server advertises: scan configurations, scan scheduling, finding triage, alert rules and recipients, integrations, users, and roles. Every action remains gated by RBAC: Lighthouse AI can only do what the user asking could do themselves.Read more in the Lighthouse AI documentation.

πŸ”Œ Prowler MCP β€” Integrations, Users, and Roles

Prowler MCP gained three tool families, available on both the Cloud and the self-hosted Local MCP Server:
  • Integrations β€” manage where Prowler sends its results, with the full lifecycle for Amazon S3, AWS Security Hub, and Jira: create them, update credentials, configuration and attached providers, re-check connections, and delete them β€” plus turning findings into Jira work items directly from a conversation.
  • Users β€” read-only tools to list the tenant users with their emails and identify the authenticated user.
  • Roles β€” browse the RBAC roles defined in the tenant, inspect the capabilities each one grants, and set the role a user holds.

☁️ Prowler MCP β€” Cloud-Only Tools

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription. These tools are exposed only by the Cloud MCP Server at https://mcp.prowler.com/mcp; the self-hosted Local MCP Server does not include them.
A new prowler_cloud_* namespace adds 32 tools so your AI assistant can run Prowler Cloud workflows end to end instead of only reading from them:
  • Alerts β€” create and manage alert rules and email recipients, and browse the fired-alert history. Rule conditions can be dry-run before saving, so you can see what a rule would match without persisting anything.
  • Findings Triage β€” set a finding’s triage status and attach notes documenting the decision. Unlike muting, the finding stays visible.
  • Scan Scheduling β€” configure daily, interval, weekly, or monthly recurring scans, one provider at a time or applied across many at once.
  • Scan Configurations β€” build reusable check and compliance selections and attach them to providers.
Read more in the Prowler MCP tools reference.

🧭 Compliance β€” Grouped by provider of the same type

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
One framework, every provider, a single answer. Building on the cross-provider-type roll-up, the Compliance section now groups compliance for all providers of the same type: a single-provider framework β€” CIS AWS, CIS GCP, ENS for Azure β€” is aggregated across the latest completed scan of every provider of that type. Each framework card rolls up into a consolidated posture with a per-provider breakdown, a findings drill-down, and a combined executive PDF report. Requirement status follows the same strict precedence (FAIL over PASS over MANUAL), so one failing provider flags the requirement for the whole estate.Across providers compliance sectionThe Compliance tabs were also renamed to say what they aggregate: β€œPer Scan” is now Single Scan, β€œCross-Provider” is now Multiple Scans, and Compliance lands on Multiple Scans by default.Cross-provider compliance detail across providersRead more in the Cross-Provider Compliance documentation.

☁️ GCP Organization Onboarding

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
Onboarding an entire Google Cloud organization is now a single guided flow. Provide an organization-level credential and Prowler discovers the full hierarchy, every folder and project. Pick the folders and projects to onboard from a selection tree, set custom aliases, test the connection, and launch: each selected project is registered as a provider, with no need to add them one by one. Post-onboarding management is covered too, including credential replacement and organization-wide deletion.Read more in the GCP Organizations documentation.

πŸ•ΈοΈ Attack Paths β€” More Privilege Escalation Queries

Attack Paths adds four AWS privilege-escalation detection queries from pathfinding.cloud. Thanks to @paramanandmallik!
  • STS-002 β€” cross-account role trust
  • STS-003 β€” wildcard role trust
  • IAM-022 β€” user permissions-boundary removal
  • SSO-001 β€” IAM Identity Center permission-set escalation
The query info panel now links every query to its page on Prowler Hub, and the IAM privilege-escalation queries were reworked to run efficiently on accounts with many IAM roles, users, or groups, fixing runtime errors and timeouts on large graphs.Read more in the Attack Paths documentation.

πŸ›‘οΈ AWS Confidential Computing β€” Nitro Enclaves Checks

Prowler adds the first CSPM coverage for confidential computing workloads on AWS, with 11 new checks for Nitro Enclaves, developed together with Guillermo Ruiz from AWS.
  • Workload host environment (EC2) β€” five ec2_confidential_workload_host_* checks for the parent instance: IMDSv2 not enforced, public IP exposure, unrestricted ingress, exposed vsock proxy ports, and hosts not running.
  • KMS attestation policy β€” six kms_key_enclave_* checks for the key policies gating enclave secrets: attestation not enforced or bypassable, missing deployment binding, debug-mode attestations, PCR mismatches, and unknown enclave images.
All checks are fully passive, using AWS APIs and CloudTrail with no instance access or SSM agent required, and are mapped across 23 compliance frameworks, including NIST 800-53 Rev 5, PCI-DSS v4.0, ISO 27001:2022, SOC 2, HIPAA, and MITRE ATT&CK.Read more about it this blog post.Try them out now at cloud.prowler.com!

🏒 New Provider β€” Huawei Cloud

Prowler now scans Huawei Cloud, with 25 checks across ten services: CTS, ECS, ELB, EVS, IAM, KMS, OBS, RDS, VPC, and WAF, plus the CIS Huawei Cloud Foundations Benchmark 1.0 compliance framework. Thanks to @tomitobio for their 1st provider in Prowler!To scan a Huawei Cloud account, export the IAM user’s access key credentials and run Prowler CLI:

πŸ“€ OCSF Output β€” MITRE ATT&CK Enrichment

OCSF detection finding output now populates finding_info.analytic with the Prowler check rule and finding_info.attacks with MITRE ATT&CK technique and tactic objects for findings with MITRE ATT&CK compliance metadata. Thanks to @AlexanderSanin!

🐞 Fixed

  • AWS Security Hub integrations now persist successful recovery checks during finding delivery, keeping connection status and the last-checked time accurate.
  • Social sign-up now creates authentication, tenant, and membership records in a single transaction, fully rolling back failed provisioning to prevent incomplete accounts.
  • The SAML configuration form keeps the ACS URL field stable while generating the callback URL and exposes the copy action only after a valid URL is available.
  • SAML users without a userType attribute and without an existing role now receive a least-privilege read_only fallback role, so role-dependent operations continue to work without granting management permissions.

πŸ” Security

  • Provider deletion, connection checks, scan creation, provider secrets, provider groups, and daily schedules now respect role provider-group visibility.
  • HTML reports escape provider-originated finding fields, preventing stored cross-site scripting through malicious cloud resource tags. https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/security/advisories/GHSA-c2jg-2778-ggm4
  • Authentication with an API key whose owning user was deleted now returns 401, and user deletion revokes the user’s API keys across all their tenants.

πŸ•ΈοΈ Attack Paths - Queries

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
Prowler Cloud now records which built-in Attack Paths queries returned data at the end of each scan. The query selector hides confirmed-empty queries for the selected scan, so you can focus on paths that exist without opening blank graph views. Errored, unknown, and parameterized queries remain available when they still require investigation or input.All Attack Paths queries are now published on Prowler Hub, where you can browse the full catalog.Attack Paths query selectorRead more in the Attack Paths documentation.

πŸ§‘β€πŸ« New Tutorials: Connect Your AI Agents to Prowler Cloud

This feature needs a Prowler Cloud API key, so it is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
New tutorials walk you through connecting your own AI agents to Prowler Cloud, so they can query your security posture and act on it programmatically.Read more in the AI agents documentation.

☁️ Region-less Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Setup

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) provider credentials no longer require a region. Existing clients can still send the legacy region field for compatibility, but the API ignores it before storing credentials or starting a scan. This removes an unnecessary step from OCI onboarding.Read more in the OCI documentation.

πŸ” Security

  • Integration responses and operations now respect provider visibility, preventing hidden-provider disclosure and blocking unauthorized attachment, connection checks, Jira dispatches, edits, and deletion.
  • Next.js was updated from 16.2.9 to 16.2.11, patching four high-severity and five medium-severity vulnerabilities.
  • The unused npm CLI was removed from the UI container image, eliminating the bundled node-tar CVE-2026-59873 and reducing exposure to future bundled npm vulnerabilities.
  • Vitest and its browser packages were updated from 4.1.8 to 4.1.10, resolving the critical @vitest/browser file-access permission bypass. These are development dependencies and have no runtime impact.
  • Kubernetes kubeconfig validation now blocks legacy auth-provider.config.cmd-path command authentication, closing a command-execution bypass.
  • next-auth was updated from 5.0.0-beta.30 to 5.0.0-beta.32, patching two critical Auth.js advisories: existence-based authorization checks that could fail open when a provider is misconfigured, and a homoglyph @ bypass in email address normalization. The bump also pulls in the patched @auth/core 0.41.3 transitively.

πŸ’¬ Lighthouse AI - Side Chat

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
Lighthouse AI now lives in a side panel you can open from anywhere in the app. Ask about the findings you are looking at without leaving the page, and expand to the full-page chat at any time: your draft, messages, and streaming response come along. Finding and resource details share the same panel, with tabs to switch between Details and Lighthouse AI.Lighthouse AI side chatRead more in the Lighthouse AI documentation.

πŸ€– Lighthouse AI - Take Action

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
Lighthouse AI is no longer read-only. Ask it to do things and it will: connect or remove providers, trigger a scan, schedule daily scans, update scan settings, and manage your mutelist and mute rules, straight from the chat. Every action is gated by RBAC: Lighthouse can only do what the user asking could do themselves.Read more in the Lighthouse AI capabilities.

☁️ One-step AWS Organizations onboarding

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
Onboarding an entire AWS Organization is now a single step. One CloudFormation quick-create link deploys the management account role and a service-managed StackSet that rolls the role out to every member account, replacing the manual StackSet console setup. Target the whole organization or a specific Organizational Unit or Root ID, and deploy from the management account or a delegated administrator. The S3 integration quick-create link also pre-fills the bucket owner account ID, preventing a stack validation error.AWS Organizations onboarding wizardBuilt on the full-organization CloudFormation template contributed by @jchrisfarris β€” thanks!Read more in the AWS Organizations documentation.

🎯 Scan configurations: exclude checks and services

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
Scan configurations now accept excluded_checks and excluded_services to narrow the execution scope. Skip individual checks or entire services per provider, and the scan does not run them at all: less noise, faster scans, and no findings you would mute anyway.Read more in the Scan Configuration documentation.

🧭 Redesigned sidebar navigation

The sidebar was redesigned around how you actually work: grouped sections for security, settings, and help, a Home/Chat switch at the top, collapsible configuration entries, clearer active states, and a responsive mobile overlay.Redesigned sidebar

πŸ”Œ Prowler MCP tools renamed to prowler_*

Core Prowler tools in Prowler MCP moved from the prowler_app_* prefix to the shorter prowler_* namespace, and the MCP documentation was restructured around it. Legacy prowler_app_* names keep working in Lighthouse AI, so existing setups are not broken.Read more in the Prowler MCP tools reference.

πŸ” Security

  • Jira integration credentials now only accept bare Atlassian site names (letters, numbers, and hyphens), and Jira tenant information requests validate site names and no longer follow redirects.
  • Social account linking now requires a verified matching email from both the identity provider and the existing user account, and account connection notification emails are disabled.
  • 13 advisories reported by pnpm audit on the UI (3 high, 9 moderate, 1 low) are resolved with patched versions of hono, ws, vite, dompurify, js-yaml, @opentelemetry/core, and @babel/core, including hono CVE-2026-59896.

πŸ€– Lighthouse AI β€” The Agentic Cloud Defender

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
Lighthouse AI is now a full agentic assistant wired to the Prowler Cloud backend. Ask it about your findings, your compliance posture, or your riskiest resources, and watch it work: the agent discovers and runs the Prowler tools it needs to answer, with every tool call visible in the new agentic view. It reads your security data through read-only tools, so it can never touch secrets or modify your tenant.Lighthouse AI agentic viewThe chat experience is rebuilt around persistent sessions: conversations stream in real time, stay in your session history, can be archived, and a sidebar chat mode lets you ask questions from any page in the app without losing your place.Lighthouse AI sessionsYou control the brain behind it. Configure one or more LLM providers β€” OpenAI, Amazon Bedrock, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint (OpenRouter, Ollama) β€” with connection testing built into the setup and per-provider model selection. Add a shared business context (your security goals, compliance needs, organizational priorities) and every session uses it to give answers that fit your environment.Lighthouse AI LLM providersRead more in the Lighthouse AI documentation and the multiple LLM providers guide.

πŸ“„ Compliance PDF Reports Without Credentials

Compliance PDF reports no longer require the provider’s credentials to be present. Findings are now enriched from the provider metadata stored in the database, so a report still generates even after the provider secret has been deleted or its credentials have become invalid.Read more in the compliance documentation.

⏳ Scan Queueing

Overlapping scans for the same provider now queue behind the active one instead of dispatching concurrent scan workers. Launch a manual scan while a scheduled one is running and it waits its turn. No more duplicated work or racing scans.

πŸ” Security

The Kubernetes provider credentials now reject kubeconfigs using exec authentication in Prowler Cloud, at the API and in the credential form, preventing user-supplied commands from running on Cloud workers.Read more in the Kubernetes provider authentication documentation.

πŸ”Ž Findings Triage

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
Triage findings straight from the Findings view. Each finding gets a triage status you can move through its lifecycle:Open β†’ Under Review β†’ Remediating β†’ Risk Accepted β†’ False Positive β†’ ResolvedAdd a triage note to record the decision, mute a finding, all from the row’s actions menu. The current status shows inline on every finding row, so you keep track of what has been reviewed and stop re-checking the same issues scan after scan.Findings triage statusesThe status also follows the finding automatically across scans: when a finding flips from FAIL to PASS on the next scan it moves to Resolved, and when it flips from PASS back to FAIL it moves to Reopened. You always know whether an issue is genuinely fixed or has regressed, without touching it by hand.Findings triage lifecycleRead more in the Findings Triage documentation.

βš™οΈ Scan Configuration

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
Create named, reusable scan configurations from a dedicated Scans / Configuration page. Each configuration is YAML that follows the structure of prowler/config/config.yaml, so you only include the keys you want to override; the rest fall back to the built-in defaults. Values are validated on save against a per-provider, type-safe configuration schema that range-checks each field and rejects unknown keys, so a malformed config is caught before it ever reaches a scan. Attach a configuration to one or more providers so it applies on their next scan, or save it now and attach providers later.Scan configuration editorFrom the Providers view you can pick which configuration a provider uses (Default or any of your saved ones) without leaving the page. No more passing config files around by hand.Scan configuration per providerRead more in the Scan Configuration documentation.

βœ… Per-Requirement Configuration Validation

This feature is available exclusively in Prowler Cloud and Prowler Private Cloud with a subscription.
Compliance frameworks can now declare ConfigRequirements on a requirement, so it’s reported as FAIL when its mapped checks ran under a configuration too loose to satisfy it. Even if every individual finding PASSed. This applies across all compliance outputs: CSV, OCSF, and console tables, and is the engine behind Scan Configuration’s β€œmarked as FAIL” behavior described above.Per-requirement configuration validationRead more in the Configuration File documentation.

⏱️ Okta β€” Request Throttling & Retries

Prowler now proactively throttles Okta API requests to stay under rate limits, with reactive retries on HTTP 429 as a safety net. Both are set in the scan configuration (or their equivalent CLI flags):
  • okta_requests_per_second (config file) / --okta-requests-per-second (CLI) β€” cap the request rate. Default: 4 req/s.
  • okta_max_retries (config file) / --okta-retries-max-attempts (CLI) β€” bound retry attempts. Default: 5.
This makes large Okta scans more reliable and less likely to be rate-limited.Read more in the Okta rate limit documentation.

πŸ“‰ AWS β€” Cap Resources Scanned per Service

Large AWS accounts can now cap how many resources Prowler analyzes for the highest-volume services, keeping scan time and cost under control. Set a global limit with max_scanned_resources_per_service, or override it per service:
  • EBS snapshots (max_ebs_snapshots)
  • Backup recovery points (max_backup_recovery_points)
  • CloudWatch log groups (max_cloudwatch_log_groups)
  • Lambda functions (max_lambda_functions)
  • ECS task definitions (max_ecs_task_definitions)
  • CodeArtifact packages (max_codeartifact_packages)
Limits are disabled by default (0 = unlimited); only positive values cap the analyzed resources.
When a positive limit is set, compliance results reflect only the sampled resources, not every matching resource in the account.
Read more in the configuration file documentation.

🏷️ Azure β€” Filter by Resource Group

Azure scans can now be scoped to one or more resource groups with the new --azure-resource-group / --azure-resource-groups option. This lets you run focused assessments against specific environments, teams, or workloads instead of scanning every accessible resource in the subscription. Thanks to @Legin-ML for contributing this feature!
Read more in the Azure Resource Groups documentation.

🧭 Provider Group Filter

Filter the Overview, Findings, Resources, Scans, and Providers views by provider group. Scope the whole app to a team, an environment, or a business unit in one click instead of filtering provider by provider.Provider group filterRead more about managing provider groups in the RBAC documentation.

πŸ”¬ API β€” Timestamp Precision in Findings Filters

The /api/v1/findings endpoint now accepts full timestamps on the inserted_at and updated_at filters (filter[inserted_at__gte], filter[inserted_at__lte], and the updated_at variants), so you can query narrow time windows instead of whole days. Date-only filtering keeps working, so existing integrations are unaffected.

πŸ•ΈοΈ Attack Paths β€” Neptune as a persistent sink

Attack Paths can now persist its graph in AWS Neptune in addition to Neo4j, selectable via ATTACK_PATHS_SINK_DATABASE=neptune (default neo4j). Cartography’s per-scan ingest database stays on Neo4j. The scan task preflights the ingest database and the configured sink before ingestion, and provider graph cleanup now deletes relationships in directed batches before deleting nodes.This is the groundwork for scale: a managed graph database lets Attack Paths hold much larger graphs, extend coverage to more providers, and link resources across them so an attack path can cross provider boundaries instead of stopping at one cloud’s edge.Read more in the Attack Paths documentation.

πŸ” New Secret-Scanning Engine β€” Kingfisher

Prowler’s secret-scanning checks now run on Kingfisher instead of detect-secrets. Scans run fully offline by default, and obvious placeholder values (e.g. password123, changeme) are no longer reported, cutting down false positives.Opt in to live validation with the new --scan-secrets-validate flag (or the aws.secrets_validate config option): Prowler checks discovered secrets against the provider APIs, and any secret confirmed to be live is reported as critical, so you can prioritize the credentials that actually work.
The detect_secrets_plugins configuration option has been removed, as it is no longer used by the new engine.
Read more in the secret detection documentation.

πŸ—“οΈ Flexible Scan Scheduling

Available exclusively in Prowler Cloud. Prowler Local Server supports daily scans only.
Scan scheduling from the Providers pageYou can now set a per-provider scan schedule from the Providers page. Pick a scan time and a repeat cadence: Daily, Every 48 hours, Weekly (with a day-of-week selector), or Monthly. Schedules can be edited or removed at any time, and a new scan never interrupts access to existing data.Schedule editorAll schedules are listed in one place under the Scheduled tab in Scan Jobs, showing each provider’s cadence, next scan, and last scan at a glance.Scheduled tab in Scan JobsRead more in the scan scheduling documentation.

πŸ“š DORA β€” Expanded Provider Coverage

Prowler extends DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act, Regulation (EU) 2022/2554) coverage to Azure, GCP, Cloudflare, and Alibaba Cloud, mapping each provider’s existing checks across the five DORA pillars.DORA compliance for Alibaba Cloud
The framework follows the <name>_<version> naming convention as DORA_2022_2554.

πŸš€ Guided Onboarding

Available exclusively in Prowler Cloud.
New accounts now get a guided first-run experience. The Overview greets you with an β€œAdd your first provider” prompt: connect a provider so Prowler has something to scan and assess, then get started in one click (or skip for now).Guided onboarding promptFrom there, contextual empty states across the product point you to the next action rather than leaving you stuck. Attack Paths, for example, explains that you need a completed scan before it can build a graph and links straight to Scan Jobs, with a β€œSee how it works” affordance for first-timers.Contextual empty states

πŸ” Optional SAML SSO userType

The SAML userType attribute is now optional. If your IdP does not send it, or sends it blank, Prowler keeps the user’s existing roles unchanged instead of replacing them with a fallback role.When userType is provided, Prowler still maps the user to the matching role. If that role does not exist yet, Prowler creates it with read-only access: visibility over all providers, with no management permissions.Read more in the SAML SSO documentation.

🏒 New Provider β€” Linode

Prowler now scans Linode (Akamai Cloud), covering its administration, compute, and networking services. Thanks to @varunmamillapalli for their 1st provider in Prowler!
