how it works
A Quick Guide to Cloud Vulnerability Scanning
Using a cloud provider has some differences from on-premises systems, but it is still essential to conduct relevant vulnerability scans. Vulnerability scanning will help to proactively find cybersecurity issues and meet compliance requirements, such as for ISO 27001 and SOC 2.
01
Review your cloud architecture
Some applications are as simple as a single cloud VM, while others may be complicated systems built on dozens of cloud services from multiple providers.
02
Pick your vulnerability scans
You will most likely need multiple types of vulnerability scanners to test your entire attack surface area. For example:
- Network vulnerability scanner
- Web application vulnerability scanner (DAST)
- Source code and dependency scanner (SAST)
- Container image scanner
03
Check your cloud provider's penetration testing policies
Most cloud providers allow vulnerability scanning and penetration testing of resources that are specific to your customer account, but do not allow testing of multitenant service endpoints. Denial of Service (DOS) testing is generally not allowed without prior authorization.
For example:
- The AWS penetration policy allows for testing Amazon EC2 instances, Amazon Lightsail instances, S3 hosted applications, and more.
- The Microsoft rules of engagement encourage customers to "Fuzz, port scan, or run vulnerability assessment tools against your own Azure Virtual Machines."

Mitigate security vulnerabilities
Discover CVEs, OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, and exploitable weaknesses across your entire infrastructure. Get prioritized remediation guidance with CVSS scoring and actionable risk classifications—fix what matters first.
Manage your risk exposure
With regulations such as GDPR and CCPA, failure to maintain reasonable security procedures is grounds for lawsuits and fines.
Meet compliance requirements
Vulnerability scanning is essential for your compliance with SOC 2, ISO 27001, cyber insurance, and more.
Detect misconfigurations
90% of cyber attacks exploit simple misconfigurations, not zero-days. Detect exposed ports, weak credentials, outdated software, and common security gaps before attackers do—automatically, every day.
Map your attack surface
Your infrastructure changes constantly. Automatically discover and monitor all websites, servers, networks, and APIs—maintaining complete visibility of your attack surface without manual tracking.
