This skill automates the validation of AWS environments against critical industry compliance benchmarks. It performs detailed checks for CIS AWS Foundations, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and SOC 2 standards, covering key areas like Identity and Access Management (IAM), logging, data protection, and network security. Essential for preparing for regulatory audits and maintaining continuous secure operations.

This comprehensive guide provides scripts and best practices for auditing, hardening, and enforcing AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies. It covers implementing least privilege, defense in depth, and auditing for overly permissive actions, unused roles, and outdated access keys, significantly enhancing cloud security posture.

This comprehensive skill provides a security posture assessment for AWS environments. It uses AWS CLI commands to audit critical security areas, including IAM policy review, network security groups, data encryption status (EBS, S3, RDS), and logging mechanisms (CloudTrail, VPC Flow Logs). Use this to proactively identify misconfigurations and ensure adherence to security best practices and compliance standards.

This guide details how to implement HashiCorp Vault's dynamic secrets engine. It automates the generation, lease management, and rotation of short-lived credentials for databases (e.g., PostgreSQL, MySQL), AWS IAM, and PKI certificates. This method eliminates the use of static, hardcoded secrets, enforcing zero-trust principles and meeting stringent compliance mandates like PCI-DSS.

Deploy SailPoint IdentityNow or IdentityIQ to establish robust identity governance and access administration. This comprehensive solution manages the entire identity lifecycle, facilitates access request workflows, conducts certification campaigns, performs role mining, and enforces Separation of Duties (SOD) policies, ensuring continuous compliance reporting for enterprise IAM environments.

Utilizes ScoutSuite, an open-source multi-cloud auditing tool, to perform comprehensive, agentless security posture assessments across AWS accounts. It queries various AWS APIs to enumerate all resources, identify misconfigurations (such as publicly exposed S3 buckets or weak IAM policies), and generate detailed, actionable HTML reports for compliance and security auditing.

This guide details the methodology and tools for conducting authorized privilege escalation assessments within AWS environments. It systematically utilizes specialized tools like Pacu and Principal Mapper (PMapper) to identify critical IAM misconfigurations, excessive permissions, and weak cross-account trust relationships. It is essential for validating the principle of least privilege and assessing the potential blast radius of compromised credentials during authorized penetration testing.

This skill guides comprehensive Google Cloud Platform (GCP) security auditing. It uses GCPBucketBrute for enumerating storage buckets and testing access permissions. Furthermore, it analyzes gcloud IAM bindings to detect overly permissive roles, identify service account key exposure, and map potential privilege escalation paths, ensuring robust security assessment for cloud environments.

Perform comprehensive security assessments for Google Cloud Platform environments. This tool audits critical security components—including IAM policies, firewall rules, and storage permissions—against industry benchmarks like the CIS GCP Foundations Benchmark. It helps organizations establish secure baselines and ensure continuous compliance across multiple GCP projects.

This skill provides comprehensive capability to discover and inventory all privileged accounts across an enterprise infrastructure. It covers domain admins, local admins, service accounts, database roles, and cloud IAM roles. It is essential for security assessments, incident response, and compliance auditing, helping to establish a complete baseline for Privileged Access Management (PAM).

This sophisticated tool automates the security review of serverless functions across major cloud providers, including AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, and GCP Cloud Functions. It systematically identifies critical misconfigurations such as overly permissive IAM execution roles (wildcard actions), hardcoded secrets in environment variables, and potential lack of runtime protections. Ideal for pre-production auditing and compliance checks.

This guide provides a deep dive into hardening AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) configurations. It teaches advanced security practices, including enforcing the principle of least privilege, defining granular policy scopes, implementing permission boundaries, and leveraging Access Analyzer to ensure continuous compliance and minimize the blast radius of security breaches.
