Cloud penetration testing
Identify and validate cloud vulnerabilities with expert-led precision.
Your cloud perimeter is dynamic and constantly evolving. Rhymetec’s Cloud Penetration Testing provides a structured evaluation of your AWS, Azure, and GCP environments to identify and validate vulnerabilities. Our methodology aligns with the OWASP Cloud-Native Application Security Top 10 (CNAS), ensuring your testing reflects the latest standards in modern cloud security.

A premium process for confident cloud security
We combine automation, manual validation, and contextual reporting for clear results.
Planning and preparation
Define your cloud assets, services, and perimeter boundaries to ensure proper coverage.
Discovery & Enumeration
Map public endpoints, APIs, and services to understand your real attack surface.
Exploitation & Validation
Leverage automated tooling and expert-led manual testing to identify and validate vulnerabilities such as privilege escalation, API abuse, and misconfigurations.
Reporting & Remediation Guidance
Deliver a detailed report with validated findings, severity ratings, and prescriptive remediation steps.
Comprehensive testing for cloud-native environments
Validate vulnerabilities across cloud services, containers, and orchestration layers.
Rhymetec’s testing approach evaluates risks across all layers of your cloud infrastructure. We assess:
- Public-facing endpoints, APIs, and load balancers
- Cloud storage (e.g., S3, Azure Blob, GCS) for insecure access or data leakage
- Misconfigured containers, serverless functions, and IAM roles
- Application-layer vulnerabilities in web interfaces and microservice
All testing is performed within cloud provider guidelines to ensure compliance and operational stability

What is Cloud Penetration Testing?
Cloud penetration testing is a controlled, expert-led simulation of real-world attacks against your cloud environment—such as APIs, storage, and compute services—to identify exploitable vulnerabilities. Rhymetec’s approach combines automated and manual testing aligned with the OWASP Cloud-Native Application Security Top 10 (CNAS), helping organizations validate security controls across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
What’s the difference between a Cloud Penetration Test and a Cloud Configuration Review?
A Cloud Penetration Test actively simulates attacks to identify vulnerabilities that could be exploited, while a Cloud Configuration Review evaluates how your environment is set up—focusing on misconfigurations, IAM roles, and policy gaps.
How often should Cloud Penetration Testing be performed?
Most organizations conduct cloud penetration tests annually or after significant architectural changes—such as adding new APIs, containers, or regions. For high-velocity teams, quarterly or bi-annual testing provides continuous assurance as the environment evolves. Rhymetec tailors testing cadence to your compliance frameworks, business priorities, and rate of change.
How long does a Cloud Penetration Test take?
A standard cloud penetration test with Rhymetec typically takes one week from kickoff to initial report delivery. The exact timeline may vary based on the size and complexity of your environment, the number of assets in scope, and whether credentialed testing is included.
