Types and Techniques of Cloud Penetration Testing

Cloud penetration testing involves evaluating the security of cloud environments by simulating attacks, identifying vulnerabilities, and assessing operability and recovery capabilities. The different types of cloud penetration testing include:

Black Box Penetration Testing

Simulates real-world attacks where testers have no prior knowledge or access to your cloud systems. This method is ideal for assessing how an external attacker might penetrate the cloud infrastructure.

White Box Penetration Testing

Testers are provided with admin or root-level access to cloud systems. This comprehensive approach aims to uncover vulnerabilities that may not be visible in black or grey box testing, ensuring a thorough evaluation of the cloud infrastructure's security from an internal perspective.

Grey Box Penetration Testing

Testers have limited knowledge and access, typically simulating an insider threat or an attacker who has gained some initial foothold. This approach allows for a more focused assessment of specific vulnerabilities and attack vectors within the cloud environment.

Who Benefits from Cloud Penetration Testing?

Organizations Migrating to the Cloud

Businesses transitioning their infrastructure from on-premises to the cloud can ensure a secure migration by identifying and mitigating potential vulnerabilities.

Companies Seeking an Attacker's Perspective

Enterprises that want to understand how their cloud environment appears to potential attackers can gain valuable insights into their security posture and identify weaknesses before they are exploited

Businesses Aiming to Enhance Cloud Security and Compliance

Organizations focused on bolstering their cloud security, preventing breaches, and meeting regulatory compliance standards will benefit from comprehensive penetration testing to uncover and address security gaps.

Enterprises Needing a Thorough Understanding of Cloud Assets

Companies that wish to gain a deeper understanding of their cloud assets, assess the resilience of their current security measures, and identify existing vulnerabilities will find cloud penetration testing invaluable.

Rules of Engagement for Penetration Testing on Amazon, Azure, OCI, and Google Cloud

Amazon Web Services
Microsoft Azure
Oracle Cloud Infrastructure
Google Cloud Platform

Pre-Approval: AWS allows penetration testing without prior approval for certain services, such as EC2, RDS, CloudFront, and more. However, activities targeting AWS infrastructure are prohibited.

Allowed Tests: Includes testing on specific resource types like EC2 instances, NAT Gateways, and Elastic Load Balancers.

Reporting: Any findings that impact AWS infrastructure must be reported to AWS security.

The Stages of Cloud Penetration Testing

Cloud penetration testing is a comprehensive process typically conducted in three distinct stages: evaluation, exploitation, and remediation verification.

  • Objective

    This initial phase involves a thorough assessment of the cloud environment to identify security requirements, review existing Service Level Agreements (SLAs), and uncover potential risks and vulnerabilities.

    Activities

    Security experts engage in cloud security discovery activities, evaluating the current security posture, identifying exposure points, and understanding the specific needs of the cloud infrastructure.

  • Objective

    Leveraging the insights gained during the evaluation stage, penetration testers focus on identifying and exploiting vulnerabilities to assess the cloud environment’s defenses.

    Activities

    Using relevant penetration testing methodologies, experts attempt to exploit identified vulnerabilities. This stage assesses the resilience of the cloud environment to attacks, the effectiveness of security monitoring, and the capabilities of detection mechanisms.

  • Objective

    To ensure that identified vulnerabilities have been addressed, this stage involves a follow-up assessment to verify the implementation of remediation measures.

    Activities

    Penetration testers re-evaluate the cloud environment to confirm that mitigation steps have been properly executed and that the security posture aligns with industry best practices. This stage ensures the continuous improvement and robustness of cloud security measures.

By following these stages, cloud penetration testing provides a structured approach to identifying, exploiting, and mitigating vulnerabilities, ultimately enhancing the security and resilience of cloud infrastructures.

Cloud Security Testing Methodologies

Our penetration testers utilize standardized methodologies to simulate cloud hacking scenarios, evaluate the robustness of your cloud architecture, and assess associated systems. This systematic approach ensures a thorough evaluation of your security controls, pinpointing vulnerabilities and recommending actionable next steps.

Key Testing Methodologies:

OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project)

Focus: Provides comprehensive tools and resources for conducting rigorous security testing of web applications, including those hosted in the cloud.

Activities: Utilizes cloud penetration testing tools to identify vulnerabilities in online systems, ensuring robust cloud security measures are in place.

PTES (Penetration Testing Execution Standard)

Focus: Offers a structured framework for conducting penetration tests, covering seven key stages: Pre-engagement Interactions, Intelligence Gathering, Threat Modeling, Vulnerability Analysis, Exploitation, Post-Exploitation, and Reporting.

Activities: This methodology ensures a systematic and thorough assessment of cloud security, from initial planning to detailed reporting and remediation.

NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology)

Focus: Provides globally recognized guidelines, standards, and testing methods specifically for cloud computing security.

Activities: NIST’s methodologies help ensure compliance with industry standards and enhance the overall security posture of cloud environments through detailed assessments and best practice recommendations.

4. OSSTMM (Open Source Security Testing Methodology Manual)

Focus: Measures operational security across various domains, including information and data controls, personnel security awareness, social engineering susceptibility, network security, and physical access controls.

Activities: This methodology provides a comprehensive evaluation of an organization’s security measures, ensuring a holistic approach to cloud security testing.

By employing these methodologies, our penetration testers can deliver a thorough and standardized assessment of your cloud environment, identifying vulnerabilities and enhancing your overall security posture.
