Cloud security solutions often focus on alerting and misconfiguration monitoring, but rarely demonstrate if your defenses can withstand a real attack. Security teams trust their tools-until a breach exposes critical gaps. Without proof, confidence in your cloud security is just an assumption.
CloudArk puts your cloud defenses to the test by safely simulating real-world threats in your actual AWS, Azure, or GCP environments. With agentless, one-click deployment, CloudArk reveals unseen vulnerabilities and detection gaps-giving you actionable evidence before attackers find them.
- Reveal cloud detection blind spots across identity, configuration, and workload layers
- Validate IR playbooks with real-world attack timelines and mapped telemetry
- Optimize CNAPP and SIEM output using true-to-life threat behavior
- Align with MITRE ATT&CK and the world's largest catalog of cloud-native TTPs
- No risk to production – All simulations are scoped, observable, and safe
- Purpose-built for the cloud – not retrofitted red teaming
- One-click deployment – no code or production changes
- Full MITRE ATT&CK coverage for cloud threats
- Backed by elite operators – ex-8200, offensive security researchers, and veterans who've broken the world's top platforms
- CISOs who want evidence their cloud stack works under real-world pressure
- Cloud security teams validating detection & response
- IR/SOC leaders tuning real-time workflows
How CloudArk Works
1. Cloud Integration
CloudArk connects seamlessly to your public cloud environments (AWS, Azure, GCP) using secure access. No agents or disruptive deployments required.
2. Threat Simulation Engine
Our platform continuously emulates the latest attacker tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) from real-world threat intelligence and the MITRE ATT&CK framework.
3. Exposure Discovery
CloudArk identifies hidden vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and privilege escalations that could be exploited by attackers, prioritizing findings by business risk.
4. Actionable Remediation
Receive clear, prioritized recommendations to remediate exposures, close security gaps, and harden your cloud environment-before attackers can exploit them.
5. Continuous Validation
CloudArk validates remediation effectiveness and adapts to new threats, ensuring your cloud security posture remains robust as your environment evolves.
Critical Cloud Threats & Vulnerabilities (MITRE ATT&CK Evidence)
The MITRE ATT&CK Cloud Matrix documents real-world adversary tactics and techniques targeting cloud environments. Here are some of the most critical threats organizations face:
| Tactic | Technique | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Initial Access | Compromised Credentials | Attackers use stolen or weak credentials to gain unauthorized access to cloud resources, often bypassing perimeter defenses. (e.g., phishing, credential stuffing) |
| Persistence | Creation of Rogue Accounts | Adversaries maintain long-term access by creating hidden or backdoor accounts in identity management systems like Azure AD or AWS IAM. |
| Collection | Data from Cloud Storage | Attackers access and exfiltrate sensitive data from misconfigured or unprotected cloud storage buckets and databases. |
| Privilege Escalation | Abuse of IAM Roles/Policies | Exploiting misconfigured permissions or roles to escalate privileges and gain broader access within the cloud environment. |
| Defense Evasion | Disabling Logging/Monitoring | Attackers turn off or tamper with cloud logging and monitoring to hide their tracks and avoid detection. |
| Exfiltration | Data Transfer to External Accounts | Moving sensitive data out of the organization's cloud environment to attacker-controlled destinations. |
| Impact | Resource Hijacking | Abusing cloud resources for unauthorized purposes, such as cryptomining or launching further attacks. |
CloudArk's BAS platform continuously simulates these real-world threats, helping you identify exposures before attackers do and ensuring your cloud defenses are always up to date.
