Vulnerable Components
Identify software components with known vulnerabilities and weaknesses that can be exploited by attackers to compromise your systems and data.
As organizations increasingly adopt public, hybrid, and multi-cloud environments, the risk of misconfigured cloud services and assets grows significantly. Developers, along with cloud and network engineers, often work under tight deadlines to deliver production applications or maintain infrastructure. This pressure can lead to prioritizing speed over security, resulting in practices such as weak secrets management or failing to enforce the principle of least privilege. Compounding this issue, many organizations mistakenly assume that securing cloud services is solely the responsibility of their Cloud Service Providers (CSPs).
While CSPs offer security tools to their customers, these controls are rarely one-size-fits-all and often require customization to meet the unique data protection needs of each organization. This is especially true for fully managed services (PaaS), where security features are included but may still require proper configuration to be effective.
wizlynx’s Cloud Penetration Testing utilizes leading-edge technology and extensive cloud knowledge to thoroughly assess your cloud infrastructure and pinpoint its susceptibilities to common attack vectors. With our goal-oriented strategy, you steer the testing process, choosing the scenarios that best represent the real-life challenges your cloud defenses might face from a skilled adversary.
We methodically expose the complex components of your cloud infrastructure to the strategies, techniques, and procedures that are typical in actual attack scenarios. Our analysis goes beyond mere misconfigurations and vulnerabilities, identifying a variety of security flaws—from exposed entry points to excessive user permissions and compromised internal pathways. By moving past the superficial checks of standard tests, we help focus your security efforts where they can have the most substantial impact.
By offering clear insights and targeted recommendations based on the potential exploits attackers are most likely to use, your security team can prioritize their work on improvements that significantly enhance your system's resilience and prevent future breaches.

Internal network layer testing of virtual machines and services allows Wizlynx to simulate an attacker who has established a presence within a virtual network. This approach helps us identify and address potential vulnerabilities from the perspective of an insider threat.
External cloud security testing solutions from Wizlynx include vulnerability scans and manual penetration testing of your AWS, Azure, or GCP infrastructure. Our comprehensive approach targets public-facing services such as web applications, network interfaces, and storage buckets to identify vulnerabilities in these critical areas. This thorough testing helps uncover a range of security issues related to both web and network environments.
Our expert cloud penetration testers meticulously review the configurations of your AWS, Azure, or GCP services, as well as the identity and access management policies applied to them. We consistently employ CIS benchmarks as the standard for our evaluations. Misconfigurations in these cloud environments—whether AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud Platform—can lead to significant security vulnerabilities.
Identify software components with known vulnerabilities and weaknesses that can be exploited by attackers to compromise your systems and data.
Evaluate authentication mechanisms for weaknesses such as weak credentials or misconfigurations that could allow unauthorized access.
Assess gaps in encryption, backup strategies, and other measures critical to ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your data.
Detect and rectify network configuration issues that may expose your infrastructure to threats or hinder secure communications.
Evaluate cloud and third-party service configurations to uncover misconfigurations that could expose sensitive data or create vulnerabilities.
Analyze Identity and Access Management (IAM) configurations to detect over-privileged accounts, improper roles, and misaligned permissions.
