Test the cloud environment obtained from a merger or acquisition

Provide test results to an interested buyer or investor

Provide test results to stakeholders, partners, customers, vendors, or other third parties

Provide test results to cybersecurity insurance companies

Test your cloud security posture after an attack or breach

Provide test results as part of a wider organizational audit

We are very transparent with the test process and provide clear steps so you can include the process in your planning and predict its completion. The steps of the Cloud Penetration Test are:

1

Free initial consultation

2

Agreement on scope, criteria, and timeline

3

Kickoff meeting and confirmation of test plan

4

Execution of cloud penetration tests

5

Delivery of reports of findings and recommendations

6

Closing meeting with testers to review findings and recommendations

Why choose us?

We are the obvious choice for cloud audits for two main reasons:

1

Our expertise

2

Our prices

You are guaranteed that your auditor has at least the following credentials:

  • Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK) from the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA)
  • Certificate of Cloud Auditing Knowledge (CCAK) from CSA and ISACA
  • The corresponding security certifications for your cloud vendor:
  • AWS Certified Security - Specialty
  • Microsoft Certified: Azure Security Engineer Associate
  • Google Professional Cloud Security Engineer
  • Additional certifications from your cloud vendor

Compare the credentials of our auditors to others available to you and the choice is clear that we have the expertise you need.

Because of our focus on providing independent audits, our prices are lower than expensive consulting companies that want to add multiple services and open-ended consulting engagements that never end. We have fast turn-around times, short timelines, up front pricing, and clear processes so you know what you can expect to keep your budget and schedules in check.

We already have the expertise ready to start, so you don't have to spend the time or money trying to find or recruit cloud security talent. Cloud skills, especially in cloud security, are in short supply and high demand. We provide you with highly valuable cloud security insights at the fraction of the cost of a full-time cloud engineer or consultant, if you can even find one.
