Why do you need Cloud Penetration Testing Services?
An authorised cyber attack simulation exercise against cloud assets hosted on a cloud provider environment.
Gartner predicts that, through 2020, 95 percent of security failures in cloud environments will be the customer’s fault.
What can't be tested in the Cloud services?
Cloud technologies or cloud system that belongs to the cloud management such as underlying cloud infrastructure, cloud providers facilities, other partners or vendors cannot be tested in cloud penetration testing. Lets get this shared responsibility model right, it simply means:
Cloud providers are responsible for security of the cloud
The tenant or organisation client is responsible for security in the cloud
Vulnerabilities identified during cloud security testing
Frequently Asked Questions
When it comes to intellectual property theft, cloud pen testing can be a valuable service. By identifying vulnerabilities in the system, we can help organisations to better protect their data. Intellectual property theft often occurs when hackers gain access to sensitive information, such as trade secrets or customer data.
Our cloud pen-testing can help organisations identify compliance violations. By simulating an attack, we can determine how well data is protected and identify any potential weaknesses. In addition, our pen testing can also help to assess whether an organisation’s security policies are adequate.
Data breach vulnerability in cloud pentesting is becoming an increasingly important issue as more businesses rely on cloud-based services. There are a number of ways in which we find data breach vulnerability in cloud pentesting, but one of the most effective is to identify data sets that are potentially vulnerable to attack. While data breach vulnerability in cloud pentesting is a serious issue, it is important to remember that reputable cloud penetration test services can be used to effectively mitigate these risks.
Insider threats are one of the major concerns for many organisations. While most companies focus on protecting their data and applications from external attacks, insider threats can be just as damaging. After all, insiders already have access to sensitive information and systems, making it easier for them to wreak havoc. We find them during a cloud configuration review and let the oranisations know before attacks.
Credential attacks are a type of hacking where criminals try to gain access to your accounts by using your login information. These attacks can be very difficult to prevent, because they usually involve guessing or stealing passwords. However, they can be minimised by working on vulnerabilities found in cloud penetration testing.
In a cloud infrastructure review, Insecure APIs are found which may not follow the recommended security practices. This could lead to vulnerabilities in the system which could be exploited by a malicious individual. In order to mitigate this, we recommend that organisations follow the strategies put forward by our cloud penetration testers.
DDoS attacks are a type of security breach that can target any type of online service. DDoS attacks work by flooding the target with requests from multiple computers, overwhelming the server and preventing legitimate users from accessing the service. DDoS attacks can cause significant disruption and downtime for organisations, which is why it’s important to be aware of DDoS attack vulnerabilities by using our cloud testing services.

Benefits of Cloud Pentesting Services
Our approach to Cloud penetration testing
Public cloud providers have cloud penetration testing policies that define what activities are permitted and prohibited in their environment. These policies are similar to other policies such as network stress testing and DDoS simulation testing. Examples of cloud penetration test rules of engagement can be found on cloud provider portals.
Before conducting a cloud penetration test, businesses should work with security partners to create a plan that covers:
- Applications and data access to be tested.
- Network access and any relevant laws and regulations.
- The assessment approach (white, grey, or black box).
Constantly identifying vulnerabilities in cloud environments is very important. The right toolset, whether automated or manual, is crucial for effective cloud application security testing or security audits, both in the cloud and on-premises. A thorough requirements analysis is essential to determine the best approach.
Correct tooling and resource usage are essential for identifying and analysing vulnerabilities. Third-party led cloud penetration testing can reveal security gaps that in-house teams may miss due to familiarity with the environment.
Risk remediation is an essential part of the risk management program of an organisation. We provide risk advice in our deliverables for cloud pentesting services to help the security team analyse and develop remediation plans. Cyphere can provide additional remediation consultancy due to the complexity of risk and the specific skills needed for cloud penetration testing remediation.
