Our approach to Cloud Security Assessment

We at HackersEra believe in taking a wholesome approach to the cloud security assessment to ensure only the best results for you.

1

Pre-Engagement

Analyze service level agreements with cloud providers. Confirming the test scope, target IP addresses, URLs, APIs, login credentials and privileges, compliance requirements, testing times, points of contact, and engagement rules.

2

Identity and Access Management

This procedure involves auditing identity and access management controls. These typically include checks of the use of elevated privilege accounts, multi-factor authentication (MFA), password policies, identity and access management (IAM) policies, access keys, and credential usage policies.

3

Review Authentication Architectures

Issues with authentication and authorisation are pervasive security flaws. User authentication is a function that the majority of applications incorporate. Although the back end provider handles some authentication and state management logic, authentication is an integral part of most architectures that knowing how it is implemented is critical.

4

Network Security

This area is responsible for auditing network-security controls such as ingress and egress rulesets, flow logging, traffic limits, and least access rights.

5

Logging API Calls, Events

Each of the major cloud service providers provide web services that log tenant API calls. This data includes several parameters, such as the API source, call details, and request/response elements. This method consists of reviewing an account's API calls, log file validation, at-rest encryption, access checks to ensure that logs are restricted from public view, and access logging, configuration management, and monitoring options.

6

Monitoring

The monitoring process is a vital activity in charge of alerting appropriate contacts during an incident. This entails relying on logging and associated configuration parameters to ensure the proper metric filters are in place. These reviews include checking for real-time monitoring configuration and setting alarms for any changes to access control lists, security policies/groups, routing tables, and other relevant parameters.

7

Vulnerability Assessment & Analysis

Identifying the target environment's security configuration, logical security vulnerabilities and identifying false positives and verifying risk levels correlated with findings.

8

Report submission

Once the assessment is complete, a detailed written report outlining each observed and exploited vulnerabilities, along with the root cause analysis and categorisation along with mitigation and confirmatory re-test certificate if the need arrives.

9

What really makes us stand apart is our excellent and round the clock support, making sure our clients never have to witness hurdles in the business.

Why

Cloud Security Assessment?

While many businesses are leaning towards cloud computing, the ever-changing cloud environment is prone to multiple threats, which are extremely difficult to detect and act on in the early stages. This is where cloud security assessment comes into play for assessing and mitigating these risks in time.
