What is a Cloud Penetration Test?
Cloud Penetration Testing is a real-world security assessment designed to identify vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and access control weaknesses within cloud environments like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. Unlike traditional penetration testing, it focuses on cloud-specific risks, such as insecure APIs, overly permissive IAM roles, and misconfigured storage buckets, which could leave sensitive data exposed.
By simulating real cyber attacks, our cloud security specialists help you understand where your defences may fail and provide actionable insights to strengthen your cloud security posture while ensuring compliance with industry regulations.

AWS
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a common target for cyber threats due to its widespread adoption. Our AWS Penetration Testing identifies misconfigured S3 buckets, overly permissive IAM roles, insecure APIs, and exposed cloud assets, ensuring your AWS environment is secure against attacks.
Microsoft 365 & Azure
As businesses rely on Microsoft 365 and Azure for cloud productivity and infrastructure, securing these environments is critical. We assess Exchange, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Azure Active Directory for vulnerabilities, weak authentication settings, and improper access controls to prevent data breaches and account takeovers.
Google Cloud
Misconfigurations in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) can expose sensitive data and services to unauthorised access. Our GCP Penetration Testing evaluates Cloud IAM, storage permissions, API security, and network configurations to ensure your Google Cloud environment is resilient against cyber threats.
