Deep-dive security assessment and regulatory audit of your Amazon Web Services infrastructure — from IAM policy review to offensive privilege escalation testing.
AWS provides powerful security primitives, but shared responsibility means misconfiguration is your risk to own. Overly permissive IAM policies, public S3 buckets, unrestricted security groups and missing CloudTrail coverage are among the most common findings in our AWS assessments.
Our team delivers both compliance-focused audits against CIS AWS Foundations Benchmark, SOC 2 and PCI DSS, and offensive security testing that attempts real privilege escalation, cross-account pivoting and data exfiltration within your AWS environment.
Testing for the 20+ known IAM privilege escalation paths in AWS — from iam:PassRole abuse to Lambda function code injection — that can turn a low-privilege user into an administrator.
Comprehensive S3 bucket policy analysis, EBS snapshot sharing review, RDS public accessibility checks and secrets management audit across SSM Parameter Store and Secrets Manager.
VPC architecture review, security group rule analysis, NACL assessment and Transit Gateway configuration audit to validate network isolation and least-privilege connectivity.
Our regulatory audit service maps your AWS configuration against the CIS AWS Foundations Benchmark — the industry-standard baseline for cloud security. We assess every control across identity, logging, monitoring and networking, providing a clear compliance scorecard with prioritised remediation guidance.
For regulated industries (banking, insurance, gambling), we extend the assessment to cover FCA/PRA operational resilience requirements, PCI DSS cloud-specific controls and GDPR data residency obligations.
