Cloud Security Pentest
Cloud environments provide agility and scalability—but misconfigurations, excessive permissions, insecure APIs, and exposed services are now among the leading causes of modern data breaches.
Whether you're on AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud, attackers exploit small weaknesses to gain unauthorized access, escalate privileges, and compromise sensitive data.
Our Cloud Security Assessment evaluates the security of your cloud workloads, configurations, identities, and networking components. We identify risks across your cloud infrastructure and provide actionable remediation guidance mapped to industry standards such as CIS Benchmarks, NIST CSF, and cloud-native security best practices.
Our Service Methodology
- 1
Scoping & Planning
We define the assessment goals, identify the cloud platforms and services in scope, review your architecture and access requirements, and coordinate with your cloud and security teams to ensure a safe and efficient engagement.
- 2
Architecture Review & Information Gathering
We analyze your cloud environment's design, including identity structures, networking, data storage, and deployed services, to understand how the components interact and where potential security gaps may exist.
- 3
Threat Modeling & Attack Surface Analysis
We map out high-risk areas such as IAM permissions, exposed services, misconfigurations, trust relationships, and critical workloads to prioritize paths attackers are most likely to exploit.
- 4
Vulnerability Discovery & Exploitation
We perform targeted testing for misconfigurations, excessive privileges, insecure storage, weak access controls, unprotected services, and cloud workload risks using a combination of automated tools and manual validation.
- 5
Post-Exploitation & Risk Assessment
We evaluate the potential impact of identified weaknesses—including unauthorized access, privilege escalation, data exposure, and attack pivoting—while maintaining strict safety controls and non-intrusive testing practices.
- 6
Reporting & Remediation Support
You receive a comprehensive report with an executive summary, technical details, screenshots, risk ratings, and prioritized remediation steps. We also provide a complimentary retest and ongoing support to help your teams validate fixes.
