Cloud breaches frequently exploit transitive IAM role assumptions, over-privileged CI/CD service principals, and container runtime misconfigurations rather than simple public storage buckets.
The Complexity of Modern Multi-Cloud Identity
In enterprise AWS, Azure, and GCP environments, effective permissions are determined by the intersection of identity policies, resource policies, service control policies, and federated OIDC trusts. Evaluating these boundaries requires graph-based privilege path analysis rather than isolated checklist alerts.
Kubernetes, Workloads, and Secrets Hygiene
Nexa Cyber Security cloud assessments inspect container orchestration boundaries, pod security admission controls, instance metadata exposure, KMS key policies, and secrets injection pipelines to ensure a compromised container cannot pivot into the underlying cloud control plane.
Embedding Fixes into Infrastructure as Code
To prevent recurring drift, cloud assessment deliverables include least-privilege IAM policy diffs and Infrastructure-as-Code remediation patterns that engineering teams can commit directly into version control.
