Who usually engages us

Security and cloud platform leaders who want to understand how identity, access, and misconfigurations in their cloud environment could actually be abused.

We typically work with organizations running AWS, Azure, or GCP that need a clear picture of IAM risk, exposed keys and secrets, and how service configurations could be chained together to gain access to sensitive data or take control of cloud resources.

Questions we get often

  • If an attacker gains access to a single account or key, how far could they move across our cloud environment?
  • Are our IAM roles, permissions, and trust relationships exposing us to privilege escalation or cross-account compromise?
  • How do you assess cloud risk safely in production without impacting live workloads?
