Description
VAPT – Cloud Only
By Nipto LLP – Cybersecurity & Risk Advisory Specialists
Full Service Description
Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing (VAPT) – Cloud Only is a specialized security assessment focused exclusively on evaluating the resilience and configuration posture of cloud environments.
Nipto LLP delivers independent, risk-based Cloud VAPT services through the Make Audit Easy platform, covering public, private, and hybrid cloud deployments across IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS models.
Our testing approach aligns with internationally recognized frameworks and security standards, including:
-
National Institute of Standards and Technology SP 800-115
-
OWASP cloud security best practices
The engagement combines automated configuration analysis with advanced manual validation techniques to uncover cloud misconfigurations, identity-based attack paths, insecure storage exposure, weak access controls, and monitoring gaps.
All findings are validated to remove false positives and are risk-ranked based on exploitability, operational risk, and compliance impact. The objective is to identify real-world cloud attack paths and provide a practical remediation roadmap aligned with governance and risk management objectives.
The engagement concludes with a comprehensive technical report and executive summary, including proof-of-concept validation and prioritized remediation guidance for cloud, DevOps, and security teams.
