PUT YOUR CLOUD TO THE ULTIMATE TEST

DON'T LET SIMULATION BECOME REALITY

Bishop Fox's Cloud Penetration Testing combines best-in-class technology and deep cloud expertise to test your cloud environment and its weaknesses against the most common attack pathways. Starting with an objective-based approach, we put you in the driver’s seat with complete control of the outcome of your test. You define the scenario to achieve a true depiction of what would happen if a skilled adversary took aim at your protected assets.

Peeling back the complex layers of your cloud environment, we put your environment to the test against the same tactics, techniques, and procedures you’re likely to face in a real-world encounter. Extending analysis beyond simple misconfigurations and vulnerabilities, our assessors will uncover a variety of weaknesses and gaps - from unguarded entry points to overprivileged access and vulnerable internal pathways. Cutting through the noise that plagues baseline testing, we focus your security team where it makes the biggest impact.

Delivering actionable insights and prescriptive recommendations based on the issues attackers are most likely to exploit, your team can focus their time and efforts on findings that ultimately improves resiliency to shut future attackers out before they even have a chance.

TEST BEYOND THE BASELINE

Test Your Cloud Environment Against the Latest Attacker Techniques

Our Cloud Penetration Testing engagement tests your cloud ecosystem against todays most advanced adversary tradecraft. As a result, we deliver valuable, focused insights into tactical and strategic mitigations that make the most impact.

We know how cloud environments work and how they break.

Cloud Threat Expertise
Uses the brightest minds in cloud security and their decades of proven experience to unravel the complexity of your cloud environments and uncover exposed attack paths.

Cloud Attack Ingenuity
Applies creative tactics, techniques, and procedures mimicking the persistence of a skilled adversary determined to accomplish their objectives.

Cutting-edge Automation and Toolsets
Puts defenses to the ultimate test applying an arsenal of open-source and proprietary offensive capabilities purpose-built to emulate the modern threat actor.

Determine your objectives and targets. We’ll execute regardless of the environment.

Complete Attack Scenario Flexibility
Adapts testing to accommodate any cloud environment, system, and target, including execution of attack scenarios that concern you most.

Objective-focused Testing
Gives you complete control to set the outcomes of your engagement - whether it’s a compromised cloud application or service, compromised or malicious user or completely customized objectives – you’re in control.

Realistic Exploitation Simulation
Captures the realism of how a skilled adversary would abuse cloud misconfigurations, compromise systems, escalate privileges, and jeopardize sensitive information in a real-world attack scenario.

Identify critical cloud attack paths and surface the highest-risk vulnerabilities.

Rogue Cloud Access Identification
 Uncover users, accounts, and groups with unintended or over privileged access to sensitive areas and information within your cloud environment.   

Cloud-Access Entry Point
 Illuminates the different ways an adversary could capitalize on unintended entry points including exploitation of applications, trusted relationships, and valid accounts.    

Internal Risk Analysis
 Pinpoints vulnerable applications, services, and pathways that adversaries could use to move within your environment and reach their intended targets. 

Don’t let simulation become reality. Strengthen cloud defenses where you need it most.

Contextual Cloud Attack Insights
 Provides an in-depth review of how assessors compromised your trophy targets, pivoted to restricted portions of the cloud environment, gathered customer data, and/or accessed privileged credentials. 

Exploit Likelihood Analysis 
 Determines the likelihood of discovered exposures being exercised by an attacker including details on threat-source motivation, nature of the vulnerability, and efficacy of mitigating controls.   

Impact Severity Scoring
 Measures the potential impact that security gaps have on your organization and its customers using a proprietary scoring method based on real-world observations and industry-standard methodologies such as OWASP and CVSS.   

Executive and Detailed Finding Breakdowns
 Tailors reporting to executive and technical audiences detailing the engagement process, findings, and recommendations aligned to business and operational objectives.

CUSTOMER STORY

Reltio Trusts Bishop Fox for Cloud Security Testing and Validation

"Pen testing identity and access management for Kubernetes is a pretty novel approach. Many pen testing companies are still just doing traditional web app pen testing and calling it done for Kubernetes, not considering other avenues of attack. We'd rather do advanced testing in a more controlled manner with people we trust than be on the defensive. "

— Terence Runge, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at Reltio
