Cloud Misconfiguration Testing

Test your cloud infrastructure for security misconfigurations with simulations that identify exposure risks across AWS, Azure, GCP, and other cloud providers.

Cloud Testing Features​

Multi-Cloud Support​

Test across providers:

  • Amazon Web Services (AWS)
  • Microsoft Azure
  • Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
  • Other cloud providers

Configuration Assessment​

Check for misconfigurations:

  • Public exposure
  • Excessive permissions
  • Missing encryption
  • Insecure defaults

Compliance Checking​

Validate against standards:

  • CIS Benchmarks
  • Cloud provider best practices
  • Industry regulations
  • Custom policies

Common Misconfigurations​

Storage Issues​

  • Public S3 buckets
  • Unencrypted storage
  • Open Azure Blob containers
  • Accessible GCS buckets

Network Exposure​

  • Open security groups
  • Public instances
  • Missing network ACLs
  • Unrestricted egress

Identity & Access​

  • Overly permissive IAM
  • Missing MFA
  • Unused credentials
  • Cross-account access

Encryption Gaps​

  • Unencrypted databases
  • Missing KMS
  • Weak encryption settings
  • Exposed keys

Logging & Monitoring​

  • Disabled logging
  • Missing CloudTrail
  • Incomplete monitoring
  • No alerting

Running Cloud Tests​

Setting Up Tests​

  1. Navigate to Attack Simulation → Cloud Misconfigurations
  2. Click New Test
  3. Configure:
    • Cloud accounts
    • Services to test
    • Compliance frameworks
    • Scope limitations
  4. Execute test

Scope Configuration​

Define test boundaries:

  • Specific accounts
  • Regions
  • Services
  • Resource types

Test Depth​

Choose coverage level:

  • Quick scan (critical issues)
  • Standard scan (common issues)
  • Deep scan (comprehensive)
  • Custom selection

Test Results​

Findings Overview​

  • How to fix
  • Prevention steps

Automation​

  • Auto-remediation options
  • Infrastructure as Code fixes
  • Policy enforcement
  • Drift detection

Verification​

Confirm remediation:

  • Re-scan affected resources
  • Verify configuration
  • Check compliance
  • Document changes

Continuous Monitoring​

Ongoing Protection​

After testing:

  • Enable continuous scanning
  • Set up alerts
  • Monitor for drift
  • Regular re-assessment

Integration​

Connect with:

  • SIEM systems
  • Ticketing systems
  • Notification channels
  • Compliance tools

Best Practices​

  1. Scan all accounts - Complete coverage
  2. Test regularly - Weekly or continuous
  3. Prioritize exposure - Public issues first
  4. Use frameworks - CIS benchmarks
  5. Automate fixes - Where possible
  6. Prevent drift - Continuous monitoring
