AWS Security Testing

Amazon Web Services as an Attack Surface

AWS powers a significant portion of the world's digital infrastructure making it an attractive and frequently targeted environment for attackers. Misconfigured S3 buckets, over-privileged IAM roles, and exposed services have been at the centre of some of the most high-profile cloud breaches in recent years.

Our AWS security testing examines your environment for the misconfigurations, privilege escalation paths, and exploitable attack vectors that put your data and workloads at risk — delivering findings aligned to AWS best practices and MITRE ATT&CK for Cloud.

The Process

A Methodical Approach to a Complex Environment

AWS environments are rarely simple, and assessing them effectively requires a process that handles that complexity well. Our methodology begins with a thorough scoping conversation that maps your account structure, identifies the services and regions of greatest risk, and agrees the access arrangements that allow testing to proceed without disruption to live workloads.

From there, each stage is managed with clear communication, professional access controls, and a focus on producing findings that are relevant to your specific environment — not generic outputs that require significant interpretation before they can be acted upon.

Benefits of AWS Security Testing

One Misconfiguration Away From A Critical Breach.

AWS powers a significant proportion of the world's digital infrastructure and it's one of the most complex environments to secure correctly. The breadth of AWS services, the flexibility of IAM, and the speed at which cloud environments evolve mean that misconfigurations and overlooked permissions are common, even in well-managed estates.

Our AWS security testing gives you expert, independent assurance that your environment is configured securely and your risks are clearly understood.

Why Daemon Labs?

AWS Security Testing Rooted in Platform Knowledge

AWS's scale and flexibility are precisely what make it challenging to secure. A broad feature set, a powerful but complex IAM system, and an environment that changes constantly mean that security gaps emerge frequently, even in experienced, well-resourced teams.

Our consultants have deep experience assessing AWS environments across a wide range of industries. We assess IAM configurations, network architecture, storage permissions, logging and alerting, and the full range of AWS-specific risks using attacker-led techniques that go well beyond automated scanning.

We translate findings clearly for every audience. Your cloud and security engineers receive the technical detail they need to remediate confidently; your CISO and leadership team receive the business risk context they need to make informed decisions. Prioritised remediation guidance is provided for every finding, referencing AWS native controls wherever possible.We support your remediation effort throughout and verify fixes before providing the documented assurance your compliance and governance requirements demand.
