Cloud Account Compromise

C

Cloud account compromise is when malicious actors gain unauthorized access to or use a person's or an organization's cloud-based services, such as cloud storage, email, or collaboration tools. This kind of assault can take place using several techniques, including phishing, malware, or brute-force attacks, and it may lead to the theft of sensitive information, the interruption of operations, or other detrimental effects. Attackers may be able to access and control the data stored in a cloud account and any related services or applications once the account has been compromised.

ThreatNG Security empowers organizations with identifying and tracking publicly accessible digital assets, potential vulnerabilities, and appropriate measures to mitigate them. Regular assessments can identify potential security issues and misconfigurations that can lead to compromise, allowing organizations to take corrective actions and strengthen their overall security posture. Security ratings can quickly assess an organization's cloud-based services and applications, identifying areas that need improvement and allowing them to prioritize their security efforts. Overall, ThreatNG helps organizations better understand their cloud-based security risks and take proactive measures to defend against cloud account compromise.
