Cloud VAPT
Cloud penetration testing for AWS, Azure and GCP
Misconfiguration, not malware, is the leading cloud breach cause. We test IAM boundaries, storage exposure, network rules and workload vulnerabilities against your live cloud accounts.
Which cloud providers do you cover?
AWS, Azure and GCP. The scanner selects provider-appropriate checks for IAM, storage, network rules and workloads based on the account you connect.

How it works
- 01
Scope accounts and access
Agree which AWS, Azure or GCP accounts are in scope and provide read-only credentials or a role for configuration review. Live-account testing runs under written authorisation.
- 02
Audit configuration automatically
The cloud scanner reviews IAM, storage exposure, security groups and network ACLs; credentialed CIS checks and a secrets scanner look for benchmark drift and leaked keys in code, environment variables and images. Container and workload checks run where relevant.
- 03
Analyse attack paths (human-led)
Misconfiguration, not malware, is the leading cloud breach cause. A reviewer traces IAM privilege-escalation and internet-to-data attack paths that automated checks flag but cannot judge in context.
- 04
Report against CIS and re-test
Findings are mapped to CIS Benchmarks and provider guidance with CVSS scoring, then re-tested after remediation to confirm the gaps are closed.
A worked example
Say a 25-person startup faces its first enterprise security questionnaire with everything in one AWS account. Over a read-only role, the scanner surfaces a public-read S3 bucket, an IAM user with a wildcard policy and CloudTrail disabled in one region, while the secrets scanner catches an access key committed to a public repo. A reviewer chains the wildcard policy and the open bucket into a demonstrable internet-to-data path and puts it at the top of the report. The team scopes the policy down, rotates the key and enables CloudTrail — and a re-scan days later shows every CIS-mapped finding closed.
