Use Case

Cloud Penetration Testing

Continuous, automated penetration testing that validates your cloud security posture without the cost and delays of manual assessments and goes beyond CSPM assessments.

Challenge

Manual penetration testing in cloud environments is costly, time-consuming, and often misses ongoing exposure due to the rapid pace of cloud changes. This creates significant windows of opportunity for attackers, leading to successful cloud attacks. Traditional pentests typically cost €15,000- €50,000 and take 3-6 months from decision to execution, leaving months of unattended security blindspots.

How Mitigant Helps

Mitigant automates penetration testing by continuously running attack emulations against the cloud attack surface. Our approach goes beyond CSPM/CNAPP scans, which do not validate exploitability. Mitigant CAE validates security findings, tests for exploitability, and provides evidence-based, AI-powered remediation steps that are contextually prioritized. Validation tests are passive and require READ-ONLY permissions; therefore, they have no impact on the cloud environment. Proof of exploitation is an optional, advanced step for organizations.

Customer Outcomes

Customers achieve continuous cloud penetration testing, accelerating risk reduction and hardening cloud defenses. No need to wait for months in the queue of external penetration testing firms, run penetration tests anytime and anyhow, and never leave windows of opportunity to attackers. Organizations using Mitigant achieve 85% reduction in time spent investigating non-exploitable CSPM alerts while validating preventive, detective, and recovery security controls.

Why Mitigant Cloud Pentesting

Key capabilities that differentiate Mitigant from traditional penetration testing and CSPM/CNAPP.

250+ Attacks

Execute real-world cloud attack techniques mapped to MITRE ATT&CK and ATLAS frameworks across AWS and Azure.

Exploitability Validation

Prove which CSPM findings are actually exploitable. Get evidence-based validations, not just theoritical findings with severity scores.

Attack Builder

Create custom penetration testing scenarios in minutes without scripting. Model your specific threat landscape if not already covered in our attack library.

AI-Powered Attack Analytics

AI models are leveraged for intelligent attack analytics to provide contextual, actionable insights including impact, risks and appropriate countermeasures and remediation.

On-Demand Execution

Launch pentests before deployments, after changes, or continuously. No waiting for external consultants. Run your security strategy without any hindrances.

Compliance Ready

Generate detailed pentest report mapped to compliance frameworks including ISO 27001, DORA, SOC 2, PCI DSS, CIS, NIS2 etc

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this replace manual penetration testing?

Yes for routine validation, but annual deep-dive manual pentests still provide value for comprehensive assessments. Mitigant eliminates the need for quarterly external cloud pentests while maintaining continuous security validation. We also offer a combination of human-led and automated with our partners if required.

Is this safe to run in production environments?

Yes. Mitigant uses read-only operations by default with safe modes for production. All attack scenarios validate exploitability without causing service disruption. You control which attacks run and when.

How is this different from CSPM/CNAPP tools like Wiz or Orca?

CSPM/CNAPP tools scan for misconfigurations but can't prove exploitability. Mitigant validates which findings are actually exploitable by executing real attack scenarios, eliminating false positives. Think: posture assessments finds issues, Mitigant proves which ones attackers can exploit (posture validation)

How quickly can we get started?

Most customers run their first attack scenarios within 30 minutes. Setup requires only read-only cloud permissions. No agents, no code changes, no infrastructure modifications.
