Why It Matters

Misconfiguration, not malware, is the leading cause of cloud breaches.

As environments grow across multiple accounts, teams, and services, permission sprawl and configuration drift happen quietly — until an attacker (or a researcher) finds the one exposed resource or overly broad IAM role that opens everything up.

Where It's Useful

Anywhere your infrastructure lives in someone else's data center.

AWS, Azure, and GCP production environments
Multi-account and multi-team cloud organizations
Kubernetes and containerized workloads
CI/CD pipelines and deployment automation
Cloud migrations and re-architecture projects
Periodic cloud security posture reviews
Our Methodology

We validate attack paths — not just flag misconfigurations.

A configuration scanner will hand you a list of hundreds of "findings." We go further: tracing which of those actually chain together into a real path to your data, and which are just noise.

01

Cloud Architecture & IAM Review

Mapping accounts, roles, and trust relationships across your cloud environment.

02

Configuration & Exposure Review

Manual review of storage, network, and service configurations — going past automated scan output.

03

Privilege Escalation Path Mapping

Identifying specific IAM misconfigurations that let a low-privilege identity escalate to broad account control.

04

Cross-Service Attack Path Validation

Testing how a weakness in one service can be used to pivot into another — the way a real intruder would.

05

Pipeline & Secrets Exposure Review

Checking CI/CD pipelines and deployment tooling for exposed credentials and insecure automation.

06

Reporting & Hardening Plan

A prioritized hardening roadmap focused on the paths that actually matter, not a raw configuration dump.
