CLOUD PENETRATION TESTING
Cloud penetration testing for AWS, Azure and GCP
We show how an attacker could abuse your cloud, and how to close the gaps.
What is cloud penetration testing?
Cloud penetration testing is an attack-based test of your cloud environment. Testers try to exploit weak identity and access settings, exposed storage, open services and container or Kubernetes flaws in AWS, Azure or GCP, then show the real impact and how to fix it.
Audits show settings. Pentests show impact.
A cloud audit lists misconfigurations. A cloud pentest proves which ones an attacker can actually use.
