§ 01Overview
Application & Cloud Security

Detailed assessments of applications and infrastructure: web, mobile, and API testing, source code review, and cloud configuration assessments across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes.

§ 02What's included

What the service covers.

Engage any item on its own, or combine them into a single engagement.
01
Web, mobile, and API penetration testing
We test against the OWASP methodology, including the business-logic flaws that automated tools do not detect.
02
Source code review
We combine static analysis with manual code review to find vulnerabilities that are only visible at the source level.
03
Cloud configuration assessment
Assessment of your AWS, Azure, or GCP environment: IAM, networking, data storage, logging, and the dependencies between them.
04
Containers and Kubernetes
Review of images, registries, and clusters: RBAC, network policies, secrets management, and runtime exposure.
05
Threat modeling
A design-stage review that identifies architectural risk before it reaches production.
06
Secure development support (SSDLC)
We integrate into your development process: code review, security checks in CI/CD, and developer training.
07
Identity and access security
Review and improvement of identity management, IAM configuration, and privileged access across cloud and applications.
§ 03How we approach it

A clear methodology, every time.

1
Application analysis
We learn what the application does and establish where the most valuable data and the highest risks sit.
2
In-depth testing
We combine testing with code review. Every finding is tied to a concrete method of exploitation.
3
Impact verification
For every finding we demonstrate exploitability and assess the business impact.
4
Remediation support
Remediation guidance written for development engineers, with the option of working together during fixes.
§ 04What you get

Results you can act on.

Every engagement ends with documented findings and evidence, written for the technical team and for the board.
01Prioritized findings with proof of exploitability
02Code-level remediation guidance
03Cloud environment hardening recommendations
04Threat model and architecture recommendations
05Retest of remediated findings

Cloud Security Assessment
Most cloud breaches come from configuration and identity, not clever exploits. That is exactly what we assess.

FAQ

Questions, answered

What does an application and cloud security assessment cover?
Web, mobile, and API testing against the OWASP methodology, source code review, and cloud configuration assessment for AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes, including IAM.
Why is cloud IAM so important?
Most breaches in cloud environments happen through identity and access management. Over-broad permissions that are never reviewed allow an attacker to escalate from limited access to control of the environment.
Can you work inside our development cycle?
Yes. We run point-in-time assessments and embedded engagements, and we can integrate with your CI/CD so findings reach development engineers during development rather than after release.
Do you test the code or the running application?
Both, depending on the goal of the assessment. We combine dynamic testing of the running application with source code review, because some vulnerabilities can only be identified at the source level.
