Let professional pen testers simulate cyber attacks on the AWS cloud to identify and address security vulnerabilities before real hackers do. This approach enables organizations to strengthen their defenses against potential cyber threats and ensure compliance with data protection regulations. AWS penetration testing is one of our team's specialties. Experienced security engineers use the best practices and only proven methodologies to conduct testing.
We provide:
comprehensive vulnerability coverage,
business logic problem discovery,
account hardening recommendations,
and detailed reports about identifying misconfigurations, cloud security gaps, and other issues.
AWS External Penetration Test helps to find and fix vulnerabilities in public services such as RDS databases, API Gateway endpoints, S3 buckets, protecting your project from external cyberattacks. We use this type of testing to ensure that your organization's perimeter defenses are robust and effective, protecting against data leaks and unauthorized access.
By simulating attacks from authenticated users or internal breaches, AWS pentest identifies flaws in internal configurations, authorization settings, and other threat vectors. By remediating vulnerabilities we found, you can prevent insider threats and protect your cloud environments from attacks that exploit existing access levels.

Get in touchBy identifying vulnerabilities in the cloud environment, an AWS pentest helps to evaluate the effectiveness of your implemented infrastructure security measures and reveal previously unknown security weaknesses, allowing for timely remediation.
Numerous regulations (HIPAA, PCI DSS, GDPR, NIST) and industry standards (SOC 2, ISO 27001) require organizations to regularly perform security assessments. An AWS penetration test can help organizations meet these requirements.
By proactively identifying and addressing vulnerabilities, organizations show customers their privacy is a top priority, fostering trust and loyalty. Also, by conducting pentesting to avoid costly data breaches and reputational damage, companies can increase the trust of stakeholders who value demonstrating responsible risk management.
An AWS pentest can be a cost-effective way to identify potential security weaknesses and reduce the risk of a data breach compared to the potential breach cost.

AWS penetration testing is a method of simulating a hacker attack by a security engineer. It is not only scanning your system for vulnerabilities or potential backdoors for hackers. Tests help you discover how attackers can exploit gaps in your security. A penetration test provides a comprehensive and expert security assessment of potential risks to AWS services, as well as a step-by-step plan for removing them and strengthening your security infrastructure.
Amazon Web Services (AWS) does not provide penetration testing services. However, they follow the shared responsibility model. AWS takes responsibility for the security of the cloud infrastructure. At the same time, you are responsible for the security of sensitive information and configuration settings in your applications. Therefore, you are able to conduct your penetration tests using both Amazon's services and reliable third-party programs.
They strongly prohibit any action that may have a negative impact on the AWS cloud environment. AWS customers are not permitted to conduct DoS simulation operations or test anything outside of their scope of ownership and competence. You can request penetration testing for any services you or your company has built with AWS. Companies can conduct penetration tests on their AWS services: EC2 instances, S3 buckets, Lambda functions, and more. Also, you can check whether other services, such as email services or cloud storage, are properly connected to your AWS infrastructure. Testers do not have access to evaluate the infrastructure of third-party services, but they are able to check whether such connections compromise your security.
Amazon Inspector is AWS's automatic service that detects potential risks and weaknesses in your resources. A penetration test is a more comprehensive method to safeguard your AWS security. During the test, specialists use a variety of services and manual testing methods. This comprehensive approach allows for a deeper exploration of your existing services, uncovering potential threats and their real-world consequences.
