Cloud security VAPT is a process that involves a comprehensive evaluation of cloud-based infrastructures, systems, data, and applications to identify potential security risks and vulnerabilities.
Ensuring cloud security helps keep your virtual machines, cloud-based systems, and other applications secure and reliable.

Security risks in a cloud environment can arise from various sources, including misconfigured systems, data breaches, and insider threats. With cloud security testing, you can rely on experts to identify & categorise your cloud assets, determine the attack surface, and assess potential weaknesses.
To ensure that your organisation’s cloud-based systems provide a strong defense against cyber threats, RankSecure performs various types of cloud security VAPT services:
Configuration Management Assessment
It involves reviewing the configuration of your cloud infrastructure components, such as virtual machines, storage, and network devices, to identify potential security weaknesses. It is followed by testing the security controls related to the configuration of these components, to ensure effectiveness.
Virtual Machine Testing
This type of assessment focuses on identifying vulnerabilities in the virtual machines that run in your organisation’s cloud environment. It includes testing for vulnerabilities in the operating system, application software, and other components of the virtual machine.
Identity and Access Management (IAM) Assessment
I am assessment evaluates the security of the IAM policies and controls used in a cloud environment. It involves testing for vulnerabilities in the authentication and authorisation mechanisms used to access cloud-based resources.
API Testing
This type of cloud security VAPT service involves testing the security of cloud-based APIs (Application Programming Interfaces), which are used to integrate cloud services with other applications and systems, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Microsoft 365. It involves testing for API vulnerabilities, such as input validation errors, authentication and authorization issues, and other API-related security errors.
Apart from providing traditional cloud security VAPT services using regular assessment techniques, RankSecure’s experts are also well-equipped to offer cloud configuration reviews, and give a detailed analysis of misconfigurations & password errors that could be exploited by attackers.
Protect your virtual assets & maintain cloud security with RankSecure
We follow a unique, systematic approach towards cloud security VAPT, that not only involves discovering and classifying vulnerabilities in your cloud infrastructure, but also helping you understand the ways in which they can be mitigated.
Our approach towards providing reliable, complete Cloud Security VAPT services
Here is an overview of our approach to VAPT:
1. Planning
The first step in the process is developing a plan for cloud infrastructure assessment.
We define the scope of the assessment by identifying all your cloud-based systems and applications to be tested and determining the best testing methodology based on that.
2. Investigation
Next, we investigate the listed systems and applications. This involves gathering information about the target environment, such as IP addresses, domain names, and other identifiers.
3. Vulnerability Assessment
Following the investigation, our expert VAPT service providers use automated tools to scan the cloud-based systems and applications for known vulnerabilities. This can include testing for software flaws, configuration weaknesses, and other potential breach points.
4. Manual Testing
Our assessment process is extremely thorough. After the vulnerability assessment, the next step is to perform manual testing, which involves using advanced techniques to identify weaknesses that may have been overlooked by automated tools.
5. Penetration Testing
At this stage, we place simulated attacks on your cloud environment in a controlled, ethical manner and try to exploit the listed weaknesses. This allows us to determine whether these vulnerabilities can be used by an attacker and evaluate the effectiveness of existing security controls.
6. Reporting & Remediation
Our final step in the process is to create a report summarising the assessment findings. This actionable report includes a detailed description of the vulnerabilities identified, the potential impact of these vulnerabilities, and recommendations for remediation.
