Cloud Security Review
Cloud breaches are rarely exotic. They are an over-permissive role, a storage bucket that was public for a week, a management interface reachable from anywhere. Astra reviews your cloud estate the way an attacker enumerates it — from identity outward — and reports the paths that actually lead somewhere.
What you get
Outcomes, not activity.
- Identity and access firstRoles, trust relationships, key material and privilege escalation paths are examined before anything else, because that is where cloud compromise usually starts.
- Benchmark-aligned configuration reviewCompute, storage, network, logging and encryption settings assessed against CIS benchmarks and provider best practice.
- Network exposureWhat is reachable from the internet, what is reachable between workloads, and whether the segmentation you designed is the segmentation you have.
- Detection coverageWhether the logs that would evidence an incident are being generated, retained and monitored — most estates discover the gap during the incident.
How it runs
A defined sequence, agreed up front.
You know what happens in each stage, who is involved, and what lands at the end of it before the engagement starts.
- 01
Inventory
Accounts, subscriptions, regions and workloads are enumerated so the review covers the whole estate rather than the parts anyone remembered.
- 02
Configuration assessment
Automated benchmark checks establish a baseline, then manual review examines the findings that matter in your architecture.
- 03
Attack path analysis
We chain the individual misconfigurations into the paths an attacker would follow, and rank them by what they reach.
- 04
Remediation planning
Fixes are sequenced by risk reduction per unit of effort, with infrastructure-as-code guidance where it applies.
Deliverables

Written for two audiences: the engineers who have to fix it and the executives who have to fund it.
