Cloud Security Assessment
Identity, exposure and configuration review for AWS, Azure and GCP environments.
Cloud environments fail in predictable ways: over-privileged identities, resources exposed to the internet, secrets in the wrong places and network rules that no longer match the architecture. Most of these are invisible from the application itself.
A CyberZ cloud security assessment reviews the areas agreed during pre-engagement. It is not an automatic full configuration audit of every service in your account; scope is defined around the workloads and risks that matter to you.
Ideal for
- Cloud-native SaaS running on AWS, Azure or GCP
- Teams without a dedicated cloud security engineer
- Companies answering enterprise questions about cloud configuration
- Organizations combining application and infrastructure testing
Testing may include, depending on the agreed scope:
Depending on the agreed scope, the assessment may include the areas below. Cloud testing scope — accounts, subscriptions, projects, regions and services — is defined during pre-engagement.
Identity & access
- IAM users, roles, policies and trust relationships
- Privilege escalation paths within the account
- Service accounts and workload identity
- Console and API access controls, MFA coverage
Exposure & network
- Publicly exposed services and endpoints
- Security groups, firewalls and network ACLs
- Network configuration between environments
- Load balancers, gateways and edge configuration
Data & secrets
- Storage buckets and object access
- Database exposure and access control
- Secrets, keys and credential handling
- Logging and monitoring coverage of security-relevant events
Application architecture
- Cloud application architecture review
- Container and serverless configuration
- CI/CD and deployment credentials
- Common misconfigurations for AWS, Azure and GCP
How we work on this engagement.
Read-only where possible
Configuration review is performed with read-only credentials agreed in advance. Any active testing of exposed services follows the Rules of Engagement.
Findings tied to workloads
Each finding explains which workload or data it affects and how an attacker would use it, so remediation can be prioritized by impact rather than by count.
Pairs with application testing
Cloud assessments are often combined with a web or API test so that application-level and infrastructure-level findings are reported together.
What you receive.
Security assessments represent a point-in-time evaluation and do not constitute a guarantee that the assessed systems remain secure or free from vulnerabilities after the assessment.

Which access do you need?
Typically a read-only role or equivalent for configuration review, provisioned for the testing window and removed afterwards. Details are agreed during pre-engagement.
Is this a full audit against a benchmark?
No. The assessment can reference CIS benchmarks and provider best practices, but scope is defined around your workloads rather than every control in a benchmark.
