What does AWS stand for?
AWS stands for Amazon Web Services.
-
Who needs AWS penetration testing?
Any business that stores its infrastructure in the cloud environment should consider AWS penetration testing. Threats from a cyber attack or data breach can happen through the cloud, just as with on-site infrastructures.
-
Can anyone perform AWS penetration testing?
Yes, AWS users can perform penetration testing on their applications or systems. However, for penetration testers, AWS has set specific boundaries that need to be followed.
-
Why is AWS penetration testing important?
Every organization should share complete responsibility in validating their AWS configuration and implementation as a part of their cyber security plan and policy. AWS penetration testing is important to:
- Make sure multifactor authentication mechanisms are implemented properly.
- To remain compliant.
- Identify vulnerabilities to help protect from malware and data breaches.
-
AWS penetration testing vs. traditional penetration testing?
The main difference is who takes ownership of the asset whose testing is being done. Since AWS is a subsidiary of Amazon, the ownership difference holds that a traditional AWS pentest can be replicated without violating the AWS acceptable use policy.
