What cloud attacks can a pentest uncover?

Testing can uncover privilege escalation, credential compromise, exposed resources, lateral movement, container escape, insecure APIs, and attack chains across connected cloud services.

Does cloud security testing cover Kubernetes?

Yes. Cloud pentesting can assess Kubernetes configurations, workload isolation, exposed services, permissions, secrets, container security, and potential paths to underlying cloud resources.

Does Medysec test AWS, Azure, and GCP?

Yes. Medysec has named analysts certified across AWS, Azure, and GCP, with testing scoped to the cloud services and accounts under assessment.

Can Medysec test cloud-native architectures?

Yes. Testing can cover containers, Kubernetes, serverless functions, managed databases, messaging services, APIs, identity controls, and service-to-service permissions.

Does Medysec include retesting after remediation?

Yes. Medysec retests identified findings after remediation to confirm fixes are effective and provides final evidence documenting the retest results and remaining risks.

Cloud Penetration Testing

Cloud Penetration Testing for Connected Medical Devices

We test the cloud infrastructure and configuration behind connected medical devices and healthcare platforms, finding misconfigurations and vulnerabilities before they expose patient data.

What We Test Across Your Cloud Environment

Medysec evaluates the cloud services, identity controls, network paths, storage, containers, APIs, serverless workloads, and device-to-cloud connections supporting your environment.

Cloud Identity & Access Management
Assess IAM roles, permissions, MFA, federation, and privilege escalation risks.
Network & Infrastructure Security
Assess network configurations, firewalls, routing, VPNs, ports, and segmentation.
Cloud Storage & Data Security
Identify exposed storage, insecure access controls, and sensitive data leakage.
Compute, Containers & Kubernetes
Assess VMs, containers, Kubernetes, serverless workloads, and isolation controls.
Secrets, Keys & Cryptography
Identify exposed secrets, insecure credentials, and encryption weaknesses.
Cloud Configuration & Security Controls
Identify misconfigurations, insecure defaults, logging, monitoring, and policy weaknesses.

Our Process

Our Cloud Penetration Testing Process Workflow

We define the authorised boundary, review the architecture, test meaningful paths, validate findings, and document remediation.

01
Scope & Cloud Attack Surface Mapping
Map cloud accounts, resources, identities, workloads, applications, boundaries, and exposed attack surfaces.
02
Cloud Architecture, IAM & Network Assessment
Assess IAM, authentication, network architecture, security controls, exposed services, and privilege escalation paths.
03
Automated & Manual Security Testing
Perform automated and manual testing across compute, storage, databases, containers, APIs, applications, secrets, and cloud services.

Penetration Testing Types

Testing That Goes Beyond the Device Surface

We choose the testing approach according to the product, available access, technical evidence, risks, and assessment objective.

Gray Box Testing
Uses limited cloud information, credentials, service details, or access to simulate a partially informed attacker.
White Box Testing
Provides extensive cloud architecture, configuration, identity, and infrastructure information for deeper security analysis.

Step-by-Step Workflow

How to Begin Securing Your MedTech Cybersecurity with Medysec

We analyze your device architecture, build complete cybersecurity evidence, and hand your team an audit-ready submission package.

01
Discovery & Artifact Plan
Our senior Medysec expert reads device architecture, intended use, regulatory pathway, and existing cybersecurity evidence then delivers a written artifact plan and fixed-fee quote inside 5 business days.
02
Authoring & Testing
Medysec runs hands-on threat modeling, SBOM authoring, security risk assessment, and penetration testing on the named device, using the agreed artifact plan as the work contract.
03
Internal Reviewer Simulation
Two named Medysec experts review the package against FDA 2026 guidance check-by-check before handoff. Findings are flagged, retested, and closed.
04
Submission Hand-off
You get a one-hour walk-through with your regulatory lead, a Letter of Attestation, and a fixed-fee retest commitment if FDA raises cybersecurity deficiencies.
