The PPA not only helps to identify all security risks, it also provides detailed suggestions on how to prevent the risks and close the gaps. The assessment, guided by an experienced Palo Alto Networks sales engineer, helps determine the areas of greatest risk where you should focus prevention activities. You can run the PPA on firewalls and on Panorama."

B is correct, because the other 3 choices are describing the BPA (Best Practice Assessment), and the question is asking about PPA (Prevention Posture Assessment)
