AWS penetration testing services

Prices starting at $7,500.

AWS penetration testing is a manual security assessment in which ethical hackers simulate real-world cyberattacks against your Amazon Web Services environment - IAM, EC2, S3, RDS, Lambda, EKS, API Gateway, Cognito, VPC and more - to uncover the misconfigurations, over-permissive identities and exploitable services that drive cloud breaches.

A modern AWS pentest goes beyond a CSPM scan. Tools like AWS Security Hub, Prowler and ScoutSuite catalogue findings; an AWS penetration test chains those findings into realistic attack paths - SSRF to IMDS to instance role, S3 bucket policy abuse, IAM privilege escalation, lateral movement across accounts, and data exfiltration via CloudTrail-friendly APIs - so you see what an attacker would actually do once a foothold is gained.

Blaze 's AWS penetration testing operates within the AWS Customer Support Policy for Penetration Testing  and is delivered by CREST-accredited offensive security engineers certified OSCP, OSWE, OSCE and CRTO. We follow PTES, OSSTMM, NIST SP 800-115, the AWS Well-Architected Security Pillar (SEC11-BP03), the CIS AWS Foundations Benchmark and the MITRE ATT&CK Cloud matrix.

Our AWS penetration testing, also known as AWS pentest, AWS cloud pentest or AWS security assessment, can be hired individually or together:

• IAM, identity and privilege escalation - over-permissive policies, role chaining, IAM Access Analyzer gaps, condition-key bypass, AssumeRole abuse, attribute-based access control (ABAC) flaws
• EC2 and instance metadata - IMDSv1/IMDSv2 exfiltration via SSRF, instance role abuse, AMI and snapshot exposure, unsafe user-data scripts
• S3 and storage - bucket policy and ACL misconfigurations, presigned URL abuse, ransomware exposure, KMS key policy review
• RDS, DynamoDB, Aurora and data services - public exposure, weak auth, unencrypted snapshots, IAM database authentication review
• Lambda and serverless - function-level IAM, environment variable secrets, event-trigger abuse, API Gateway authorizers, Step Functions logic flaws
• EKS, ECS and ECR - container security, IRSA misconfiguration, privileged pods, image supply-chain checks
• Cognito - user pool, identity pool, OIDC and federation security
• VPC and network - segmentation testing, security groups, NACLs, VPC endpoints, exposed services, Transit Gateway and PrivateLink review
• AWS-hosted application pentest - SaaS, web, mobile and API apps deployed on AWS
• CloudTrail, GuardDuty, Config and Security Hub - detection coverage and logging gap analysis

We also test for AWS-specific privilege escalation paths catalogued in Pacu, CloudGoat and CloudFox, and confirm the configuration findings surfaced by Prowler and ScoutSuite are actually exploitable.

Average duration is 7 to 25 person-days, depending on account count, region count and service surface.

You will receive a detailed report from a motivated adversary's perspective, with countermeasures to remediate the issues:

• Executive summary explaining issues, attack scenarios and business impact in non-technical language
• Vulnerability descriptions, attack demonstrations and remediation guidance
• Remediation prioritization matrix
• Mapping of findings to MITRE ATT&CK Cloud, CIS AWS Foundations Benchmark, AWS Well-Architected Security Pillar and the relevant compliance framework (SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI DSS 4.0, HIPAA, GDPR)
• Signed letter of attestation suitable for auditors and enterprise vendor security questionnaires
• Free re-test if performed within 90 days from the final report

Reports arrive within five business days of assessment completion. The same AWS penetration testing report supports vendor risk assessments and audits including SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001:2022, PCI DSS 4.0, HIPAA, GDPR and CCPA/CPRA.
