03 — CLOUD SECURITY
Cloud environment security assessments.
Cloud platforms make it easy to build quickly — and just as easy to grant overly broad permissions. We review how your environment is configured and what an attacker could do with it.
WHAT WE ASSESS
The assessment combines configuration review with hands-on testing of how identities, resources and services interact.
Focus is placed on the parts of the environment that matter most to your business, not on generating long lists of deviations from benchmarks.
TYPICAL RISK AREAS
- Access policies
Overly broad roles, misdelegated permissions and privilege-escalation paths.
- Configuration
Storage, network rules, logging and encryption that do not match intent.
- Exposed services
Resources, functions and management interfaces reachable from outside.
- Trust boundaries and architecture
Relationships between accounts, environments, CI/CD pipelines and external integrations.
Scoping
- Which accounts, subscriptions or projects are included.
- Read access for configuration review and any test identities.
- Which workloads and services are most business-critical.
What you receive
- An overview of the environment’s most important risks.
- Verified findings with a description of impact.
- Concrete recommendations tailored to your architecture.
- Retesting when included in scope.

- 04
Report & Retest
Deliver prioritized findings, remediation guidance and follow-up validation where agreed.
FREQUENTLY ASKED
Which cloud platforms do you assess?
Platforms and services in scope are agreed per engagement. Tell us which environment you use and we will explain how we can help.
Do we need to notify the cloud provider?
Providers have their own rules for security testing. We go through what applies to your platform during scoping.
