Cloud penetration testing services

Cloud penetration testing. For AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes.

A misconfigured role or an exposed bucket is rarely the whole story. We test how those small gaps chain into real access across your cloud, then hand you the fixes and the evidence your auditor needs.

Four cloud lanes, AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, each annotated with one named bug class actually exploited in real engagements.

Four providers

AWS · Azure · GCP · Kubernetes, one method, four control planes.

Evidence

Working proof-of-exploit and code-level fix guidance on every finding.

Re-test included

We verify your fixes at no extra cost. One engagement, closed loop.

Why now

The window from vulnerability discovery to exploitation has gone from weeks to hours.

Cloud depth.

One misconfiguration is never just one finding. It's the first step into your account.

A single over-permissive role or an exposed key is rarely the whole risk. We chain those small gaps the way an attacker would, from one weak setting to real access across your account, and show you exactly where the path breaks. For Amazon-specific depth, see AWS penetration testing.

What we test

Four cloud surfaces. One engagement.

Each provider gets a manual, threat-modelled review against its real attack surface, control plane, identity, network, and workload. Intensity tunes per scope.

Amazon AWS

IMDSv1 SSRF, IAM role chaining, public S3 enumeration, Lambda over-privilege, EKS cluster-role abuse, KMS key-policy misuse, Cognito user-pool misconfig, Secrets Manager exposure.

Microsoft Azure

Managed identity over-scope, Storage Account SAS leak, Function App env exposure, AKS pod-identity abuse, Key Vault access policy bypass, Azure AD application consent, Logic App secret reuse.

Google Cloud Platform

Workload-identity confusion, service-account impersonation, Cloud Run scope abuse, GKE node pool escape, Secret Manager IAM gaps, Cloud Storage bucket policy bypass, Cloud Functions trigger replay.

Kubernetes

Pod escape via privileged container, RBAC bypass, etcd exposure, kubelet API abuse, sidecar/init container attack paths, NetworkPolicy gaps, admission-controller bypass, ServiceAccount token theft.

CLOUD PENTEST METHODOLOGY.

Eight phases. Control plane to workload.

Threat-modelled to your control plane, identity model, and workload topology. Not a template we run against every cloud.

  • Compliance scoping

    APP 8 cross-border data-flow register

Questions Australian cloud architects ask first.

  • Do you align to ACSC cloud tenant guidance?

    Yes. Findings reference the ACSC Cloud Computing Security for Tenants document chapter and control number. PSPF-aligned tenants get the OFFICIAL: Sensitive overlay.

  • How do findings sit against CPS 234?

    Cloud control gaps cite CPS 234 ¶21 capability and ¶33 third-party clauses. Material service provider risk feeds the CPS 230 register.

  • Will reports help an IRAP assessment?

    Yes. Findings format to IRAP control statement language. Useful as input to a stage-1 IRAP gap assessment.

  • Do you test data residency under APP 8?

    Yes. Every data-flow finding lists the destination region. APP 8 cross-border disclosure risk is flagged when data leaves AU.
