Cloud penetration testing supports both security and compliance. Whether you use AWS, Azure, or GCP, testing ensures your environment meets the latest regulatory and risk management requirements.
Test the Security of Your Cloud Platforms and Services
Cloud penetration testing is a controlled security assessment that targets your cloud infrastructure—whether it’s AWS, Azure, GCP, or hybrid. We evaluate how attackers might abuse cloud services, misconfigured settings, or exposed assets.
This includes testing IAM (identity and access management), external interfaces, storage permissions, virtual machines, and APIs. In short, it’s a full-spectrum test of your cloud environment’s ability to withstand an attack.
The cloud makes deployment easy—but it also opens new paths for attackers. From leaked access keys to over-permissioned roles, one small mistake can cause a big problem. Cloud penetration testing helps you catch those issues before they’re exploited.
This test helps you:
Detect misconfigured S3 buckets, blob storage, or databases
Uncover exposed management interfaces
Evaluate access controls and IAM policies
Identify cloud metadata or API vulnerabilities
Check privilege escalation paths in cloud services
Test cloud-native logging, alerting, and detection
By mimicking real-world cloud threats, we help you secure your data, services, and cloud users.
We start by discovering public assets—such as domains, storage buckets, APIs, and cloud-hosted apps. This gives us the attack surface.
Next, we test cloud components for common security flaws like open storage, excessive permissions, outdated AMIs, or exposed keys.
We simulate how attackers could move from one resource to another or escalate privileges by abusing trust relationships or roles.
We evaluate IAM policies, group roles, and service permissions to see if users or systems have more access than they should.
Our final report details every issue, shows proof-of-concept attacks, and includes specific, prioritized fixes for each vulnerability.
Cloud penetration testing simulates real attacks on cloud environments to identify misconfigurations, weak IAM policies, and exposed resources.
Cloud platforms are flexible, but they also introduce risks. Testing helps detect flaws before attackers do, especially in growing or changing environments.
We test IAM roles, public assets, APIs, object storage, virtual machines, exposed secrets, and more—everything a cloud attacker would target.
Yes. We offer cloud testing across all major providers, including hybrid and multi-cloud setups.
Yes. Depending on the test scope, we may need read-only credentials or access to specific services. Tests can be scoped to internal or external-only.
Scans look for known issues. Our cloud penetration test simulates real attacks to test how those vulnerabilities could be chained or escalated.
No. We test safely and coordinate closely with your team. Tests are scheduled and scoped to avoid service disruption or data loss.
At least once a year, or after major changes to infrastructure, new services, or cloud provider configuration updates.
Yes. PCI DSS, HIPAA, GLBA, and SOC 2 all require regular testing of cloud-hosted systems that store or process sensitive data.
Absolutely. We provide remediation advice, IAM policy corrections, secure architecture recommendations, and even hands-on support if needed.
Cloud penetration testing supports both security and compliance. Whether you use AWS, Azure, or GCP, testing ensures your environment meets the latest regulatory and risk management requirements.
Testing validates security controls in cloud infrastructure—such as access control, auditing, and configuration management—required under NIST.
Banks and financial firms need to secure customer data across all platforms. Cloud testing ensures third-party services and infrastructure meet regulatory standards.
Cloud penetration testing helps meet HIPAA by validating access controls, encryption, and system configurations that protect PHI.
Cloud testing supports PCI by assessing cardholder environments hosted in the cloud. It ensures security controls are working as intended.
Casinos using cloud-based systems for loyalty, analytics, or operations must protect guest data. Cloud testing supports regulatory readiness and internal control effectiveness.
Cloud testing helps tribal casinos align with best practices for data security, ensuring they meet tribal and federal expectations for cloud-hosted services.
We simulate real-world cyberattacks against your public-facing systems to uncover vulnerabilities before attackers do. This helps identify exploitable weaknesses in firewalls, VPNs, email servers, and other internet-accessible assets.
This test mimics an attacker who has gained internal access, helping uncover insecure configurations, legacy systems, and lateral movement paths. It reveals how deep an intruder could go inside your network and what data might be compromised.
We assess the security of your Wi-Fi networks, identifying risks such as rogue access points, weak encryption, and insecure configurations. The goal is to prevent unauthorized access and protect sensitive data traveling over your wireless infrastructure.
We perform in-depth testing of your web applications using both automated tools and manual techniques to uncover flaws like injection, authentication bypass, and insecure direct object references. This ensures your apps are secure against OWASP Top 10 threats.
We conduct phishing, pretexting, and baiting campaigns to measure your employees’ resistance to real-world social engineering tactics. This service helps you identify human vulnerabilities and improve security awareness training.
We evaluate your cloud-hosted infrastructure and configurations for misconfigurations, privilege escalation paths, and insecure APIs. This ensures your AWS, Azure, or GCP environments align with cloud security best practices.
e attempt to breach your physical security controls by tailgating, badge cloning, or bypassing locks to test your facility’s resilience against intruders. This reveals gaps in physical access controls, alarm systems, and visitor management.
Our red team mimics real-world adversaries using stealth, persistence, and custom tooling to test your entire security ecosystem across digital, human, and physical layers. This provides a true test of your detection, response, and resilience capabilities.
Cloud services power loyalty systems, player apps, and data analytics. Cloud testing helps protect guest data and ensure regulatory compliance.
From cloud EHR systems to patient portals, cloud testing helps providers secure ePHI and comply with HIPAA and HITRUST frameworks.
Fintech platforms are born in the cloud. Penetration testing ensures secure transactions, API protections, and trusted access.
Hotels using cloud-based booking, mobile check-in, or property management tools rely on testing to keep guest data safe.
Cloud document management and case systems require protection. Cloud penetration testing keeps sensitive data private and secure.
Your platform is your product. Testing ensures multi-tenant environments, APIs, and dashboards are secure for customers.
Cloud-based learning platforms and student data storage must be protected. Testing helps meet FERPA, COPPA, and other requirements.
Cloud hosting powers modern stores. Testing ensures websites, payment systems, and inventory platforms are protected from cloud-based threats.
At Adversim, we’ve tested cloud infrastructure across every major platform. Our team knows how real attackers exploit identity, access, and automation gaps in cloud environments. More importantly, we translate what we find into plain-language steps your engineers can act on fast.
Whether you’re migrating to the cloud, running a SaaS product, or just want peace of mind, our cloud penetration testing gives you real results—not just a scan.
