What is a Cloud Security Review?
Today’s technology is rapidly adopting cloud technology to assist organisations in moving to a cloud-based or hybrid infrastructure to provide flexible, redundant and cost-effective computing on an enterprise level.
Pentest People’s Microsoft (MS) Cloud Security Review audits your Azure and Office 365 instances to identify misconfigurations, lack of best practices and secure configurations from a ‘Blue Team’ perspective, allowing you to remediate the vulnerabilities before they are exploited. This testing is performed remotely from Pentest People’s office and data center locations using credentials to your Azure and Office 365 Portals.

The Fundamentals
Overview of Cloud Methodology
Scoping & Intelligence Gathering
Our experts will listen to you and your needs to develop a tailored testing strategy. From here our consultants will use a wide variety of penetration testing tools and resources to gather information on your organisation.
Reporting & Remediation
Now the test is complete our consultants will fill out a detailed report of their findings, broken down by category and type, adding any remediation advice to the exploits and vulnerabilities they discovered. This data will be accessible via SecurePortal and follow up calls will be made to walkthrough the test and the steps required to remove the risks found.
Office 365 Configuration Review
Office 365 and all connected apps, both first and third-party are reviewed to identify various issues. This can include (but not limited to) app misconfigurations, weak security configurations and ‘low hanging fruit’ issues that could be utilised by an attacker to escalate their access or access sensitive information.
Azure Configuration Review
The configuration of the Azure environment(s) are systematically investigated to establish a secure baseline that conforms with best practices. This assessment will cover all entities based in your environment(s) to highlight misconfigurations and bad practices. Pentest People understand that there are requirements and external factors that need to be satisfied — the consultant will take these into consideration when completing the post assessment report.
Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT)
The Microsoft Cloud Security Review has a strong focus on publicly available information that could be leveraged in targeted attacks. Information such as links to cloud resources, document metadata, email addresses, and leaked credentials, are gathered to identify common and applicable attacks from unauthenticated attackers.
