AWS attack path analysis & CSPM

Find the AWS security risks that actually matter.

KloudLytics maps how AWS exposures can chain together, identifies attack paths to sensitive resources, and tells your team exactly what to fix.

  • 200+ checks
  • 36+ AWS services
  • Agentless
  • Read-only

No agents. No long-lived AWS credentials. Connect your account using a read-only cross-account role.

Critical attack path4 hops
  1. InternetAnyone
  2. Public load balancerPort 443 open to 0.0.0.0/0
  3. EC2 instanceweb-01, reachable from the load balancer
  4. Instance IAM roleAllows s3:* on every bucket
  5. Sensitive S3 bucketcustomer-exports

An internet-accessible workload can reach sensitive data through an over-permissive IAM role.

Break this path: Remove s3:* from the workload role.

The problem

AWS security produces too many findings. Not enough answers.

A public security group, an over-permissive IAM role and an exposed workload may each look like separate findings. The real risk is what happens when they connect.

A findings list

Seven separate problems. Which one first?

  • HighSecurity group allows 0.0.0.0/0 on 443
  • MediumLoad balancer is internet-facing
  • MediumEC2 instance has an instance profile
  • HighIAM role allows s3:*
  • LowS3 bucket has no access logging
  • MediumS3 bucket is not tagged
  • LowCloudWatch alarm missing

The path they form

One route from the internet to your data.

  1. Internet
  2. Public load balancer
  3. EC2 instance
  4. Instance IAM role
  5. Sensitive S3 bucket

KloudLytics correlates configuration, identity and network relationships to show how individual weaknesses combine into a real attack path. Stop fixing findings in isolation. Fix the paths that matter.

How it works

From finding to attack path to fix.

  1. 01

    Discover

    Connect your AWS account using a read-only cross-account role. Nothing is installed, and no access keys are stored.

  2. 02

    Analyse

    KloudLytics evaluates AWS configuration, IAM relationships, network exposure and how resources depend on one another.

  3. 03

    Prioritise

    See which findings combine into attack paths, how reachable the entry point is, and how much sits at the end.

  4. 04

    Remediate

    Every finding carries its evidence. Paid plans add AI-written fixes as console steps, AWS CLI and Terraform.

Attack paths

See how an attacker could move through your AWS environment.

A critical finding is not always a critical risk. KloudLytics connects related findings to reveal attack paths across your AWS environment, so your team can see which weaknesses can actually be chained together.

  • Trace exposure across load balancers, compute, roles and data stores.
  • Understand identity and permission relationships.
  • See the blast radius at the end of each path.
  • Prioritise paths instead of isolated findings.
  • Inspect the configuration evidence behind every hop.
High-risk attack path4 hops
  1. InternetAnyone
  2. Public API GatewayRoute with no authoriser
  3. Lambda functionorders-api, invoked by the route
  4. Execution IAM roleAllows secretsmanager:GetSecretValue on *
  5. Database credentialsSecrets Manager: prod/db/master

An unauthenticated API route invokes a function whose role can read every secret in the account.

Break this path: Scope the role to the one secret the function needs.

Why KloudLytics

Security findings are easy. Knowing what to fix first is harder.

Attack-path analysis

Individual findings are connected into the paths they form, instead of each being treated as its own problem.

Risk prioritisation

Engineering time goes to the exposures with the greatest potential impact, not the longest list.

Actionable remediation

Engineers get concrete steps that resolve the underlying configuration problem, not a link to documentation.

Continuous posture

Track your posture as infrastructure changes. Scheduled scans on paid plans catch new exposures as they appear.

Security & trust

You trust us with security data. We take that seriously.

Agentless

No software is deployed into your AWS account. Scans run from outside through the AWS API.

Read-only access

KloudLytics reads configuration to assess it. It never writes to, or changes, your environment.

A role you create

You create a cross-account IAM role with a unique external ID, and you can delete it at any time.

No long-lived credentials

Access uses temporary STS credentials that expire on their own. We hold no AWS access keys.

FAQ

Answers to the questions teams ask

What is KloudLytics?

KloudLytics is an agentless AWS Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) platform. It connects to your AWS account through a read-only IAM role, runs 200+ security checks across 36+ services, produces a live 0–100 posture score, maps your attack surface, and gives AI-written remediation steps for every finding — with setup in under five minutes.

What is attack surface mapping and how does it work?

Attack surface mapping builds a graph of your AWS resources and traces the real paths an attacker could take — from an internet-exposed resource, through your network and IAM, to a sensitive target like an admin role or database. Each path is ranked by exploitability and blast radius, and AI explains the attacker's story and the one fix that breaks the chain. Every hop is a verified fact from your live configuration, not an inference.

Does KloudLytics install agents in my AWS account?

No. KloudLytics is fully agentless. Nothing is installed or deployed in your environment. Scans run from outside via the AWS API using temporary STS credentials from a read-only cross-account IAM role.

What AWS permissions does KloudLytics need?

Only read-only permissions. KloudLytics never writes to your account. Cross-account access uses AWS STS AssumeRole with a unique external ID per customer, protecting against confused-deputy attacks. No long-lived credentials are stored.

How does KloudLytics secure AI/ML services like Bedrock and SageMaker?

KloudLytics includes dedicated checks for Amazon Bedrock and SageMaker — detecting missing guardrails, internet-accessible notebooks, over-permissioned agent roles, and unencrypted knowledge bases. This is AI/ML security coverage most CSPM tools still lack.

Who is KloudLytics for?

Startups and mid-market security teams managing one or more AWS accounts — DevSecOps engineers, CISOs, and compliance owners preparing for CIS, SOC 2, or PCI-DSS audits who want enterprise-grade coverage without the enterprise setup and cost.

How is KloudLytics different from enterprise CSPMs?

KloudLytics delivers the coverage that matters — posture scoring, attack surface mapping, AI-guided remediation, and AI/ML security — in minutes rather than weeks, at a price built for growing teams. Enterprise CSPMs are powerful but priced, staffed, and scoped for large enterprises.

Is there a free plan?

Yes — a Free plan, not a time-limited trial. It covers one AWS account and one repository with five scans a month, attack surface mapping and CIS AWS compliance, and needs no credit card. Pro and Business add more accounts, scheduled scans, every compliance framework and AI-written remediation.
