Cloud & SaaS
The misconfigurations attackers rely on — found and proven.
Cloud environments fail silently. Privout reviews identity, storage, compute, and deployment posture across AWS, Azure, and GCP to find the configuration gaps that lead to data exposure, lateral movement, and privilege escalation — before an attacker chains them together.
What We Test
Targeted coverage, not a generic scan.
Identity & Access Management
Over-permissioned roles, stale credentials, cross-account trust chains, and federation misconfigurations that grant unintended access.
Storage & Data Exposure
Public buckets, unencrypted volumes, snapshot sharing, and backup policies that leave sensitive data reachable from the internet.
Compute & Container Security
Instance metadata abuse, container escape paths, serverless misconfigurations, and exposed management interfaces.
Network & Segmentation
Security group sprawl, overly permissive VPC peering, missing flow logs, and unmonitored egress paths.
Logging & Detection Gaps
Disabled CloudTrail regions, missing GuardDuty coverage, alert fatigue patterns, and blind spots an attacker would exploit.
CI/CD & Deployment Pipeline
Secret leakage in build logs, overprivileged service accounts, and deployment paths that bypass change control.
Methodology
How the engagement runs.
Configuration Review
Policy documents, IAM graphs, and resource inventories are analyzed against known attack patterns — not just compliance benchmarks.
Attack Path Mapping
Individual misconfigurations are chained into realistic attack scenarios that demonstrate lateral movement and data access.
Privilege Escalation Testing
Every role and service account is tested for escalation paths — from read-only to admin, from one account to another.
Hardening Guidance
Findings include specific remediation steps with least-privilege alternatives, not generic best-practice references.
Deliverables
What you walk away with.
Every engagement closes with clear, actionable output — not a data dump.
