CLOUD SECURITY TESTING/VAPT
CloudSecurity testing/VAPT stands for Cloud Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing. It is a comprehensive security assessment that combines vulnerability scanning with penetration testing to identify and exploit vulnerabilities in an organization’s cloud environment.
Cloud VAPT can be used to identify a wide range of vulnerabilities, including:
- Open ports :Open ports can be used by attackers to gain access to a cloud environment.
- Weak passwords : Weak passwords can be easily guessed or cracked by attackers.
- Outdated software:Outdated software often contains known vulnerabilities that can be exploited by attackers.
- Misconfigurations :Misconfigurations can leave cloud environments open to attack.
- Unpatched vulnerabilities :Unpatched vulnerabilities can be exploited by attackers.
Cloud VAPT can be conducted on a variety of cloud platforms, including:
- Amazon Web Services (AWS) : AWS is a cloud computing platform that offers a wide range of services, including computing, storage, networking, and databases.
- Microsoft Azure :Azure is a cloud computing platform that offers a wide range of services, including computing, storage, networking, and databases.
- Google Cloud Platform (GCP):GCP is a cloud computing platform that offers a wide range of services, including computing, storage, networking, and databases.
The specific scope of a Cloud VAPT will vary depending on the organization’s needs and the specific risks that it faces.
Cloud VAPT is an important part of any organization’s cloud security posture. By identifying and addressing vulnerabilities, organizations can reduce their risk of being attacked and protect their data.
