About Cloud Security Validation
Cloud Security Validation features
Comprehensive AWS service audits
Picus Cloud Security Validation scans key AWS services, automatically detecting misconfigurations such as exposed S3 buckets, excessive privileges, and cryptographic weaknesses to ensure your cloud environment is secure.
Privilege escalation detection
The solution simulates potential privilege escalation scenarios by identifying vulnerable IAM policies, helping you spot risks before attackers can exploit them to access critical systems.
Attack simulations for impact assessment
Picus Cloud Security Validation takes it a step further by simulating real-world attacks on identified vulnerabilities, allowing you to evaluate the potential impact of security gaps without any risk to your operations.
Cloud Security Validation benefits
-
Uncover critical cloud misconfigurations
Proactively identify and prioritize risks to stay ahead of potential threats.
-
Prevent overly permissive policies
Ensure your cloud policies follow the principle of least privilege (PoLP), simulating attacks to detect overly permissive access and preventing attackers from escalating privileges to critical systems.
-
Turn vulnerabilities into actionable insights
Go beyond detection — Picus CSV provides actionable insights to address security gaps. With intuitive dashboards, track improvements, strengthen your cloud security posture, and demonstrate your organization’s security maturity.
