Our cloud security experts can deliver an assessment at any stage of your cloud journey; whether that’s before you start migrating over to the cloud, as your move is in progress, or even if you already have a cloud solution in place.
The Importance of a Cloud Infrastructure Assessment
While cloud infrastructure is increasingly common to modern organisations, it can create complexity.
- High Volumes of Data - Cloud workloads often produce high volumes of actionable data and detailed information that can lead to compromise if implemented or configured incorrectly.
- Vulnerabilities and Misconfigurations - Many organisations trust cloud providers to ensure appropriate cloud security, vulnerability management and data protection. However, this can lead to security teams underestimating the importance of their role during the implementation phase and result in environments that contain vulnerabilities or misconfigurations.
- Independent Assurance - For certain industries, consumers, customers, and regulators may also require independent assurance (i.e. cloud infrastructure testing) that their business’s systems are operating securely. This cannot be done internally and thus requires a trusted penetration testing partner.
What to Expect From a Cloud Infrastructure Assessment by Bridewell
By completing an assessment, you can ensure you have a well-implemented and closely-monitored cloud environment that is as secure as any other type of hosting environment.
A Modern Approach
Our engagements account for all types of cloud infrastructure including multi-cloud or hybrid environments, software as a service (SaaS), platforms as a service (PaaS), and infrastructure as code.
Penetration Testers with Industry Experience
Our team brings experience from previous roles as sysadmins, system architects, network engineers and developers.
Tailored Engagements for Any Goal
None of our assessments are ‘out-of-the-box’; we collaborate with our clients to develop a methodology that assesses specific areas of concern in line with business objectives.
Highly Accredited for Penetration Testing
We are accredited by CREST, the OSCP, Zeropoint Security CRTOs, are Tiger-certified, and possesses Certified Cyber Security Consultancy status with the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC).
Detailed Remediation Advice
Following our engagements, we will deliver a detailed report of the identified vulnerabilities with remedial actions that will strengthen your cyber defences.
Why is it Worth Conducting a Cloud Infrastructure Penetration Test?
Targeted and Prioritised Remediation Actions
We will ensure you implement the correct configurations and infrastructure in an order that provides the most security value in the shortest possible time.

Complete Evaluation of Your Cloud Infrastructure
The assessment provides a true validation of your current defensive practices and guidance on improving detection and response capabilities.
A Modular, Tailored Approach
We don’t have a one-size-fits-all approach to testing and will customise the engagement dependent on your specific objectives (e.g. active directory assessment, password reviews, firewall reviews, device reviews).
Improve Your Security Investment
Validate your current software configuration and work with us to optimise your configuration and streamline maintenance for the highest level of protection and best return on investment.

How we conduct a Cloud Infrastructure Assessment
Our cloud security assessments use a mix of manual and automated methods, covering:
- Management: We evaluate how your cloud services, such as AWS and Azure, are designed and managed. This includes reviewing account management, privilege allocation, and root account security to identify potential risks.
- Cloud Environment: We examine the security of cloud instances, virtual networking, and overall cloud security operations.
We offer expertise and tailored solutions to help clients maximise cloud benefits while ensuring robust data security, risk management, and cloud security posture against cyber threats
