As organizations connect more IoT devices to cloud platforms, the attack surface expands well beyond the device itself. APIs, cloud identities, storage services, and backend management platforms all become potential entry points for attackers. A single misconfigured permission or exposed API can allow an attacker to escalate privileges, access sensitive data, or pivot between cloud resources and connected devices.
At Suzu Labs, we test cloud environments the way real attackers do. Rather than stopping at vulnerability scans, we evaluate how APIs, identity controls, cloud permissions, and IoT management platforms interact. We look for privilege escalation opportunities, insecure trust relationships, overly permissive IAM roles, and lateral movement paths that could allow a compromise of one device or service to spread throughout an environment.
Modern cloud security isn't just about protecting infrastructure, it's about understanding how every connected component can be abused together. By validating real attack paths across cloud platforms and IoT ecosystems, organizations gain a clear understanding of the risks that matter most and the remediation steps that will have the greatest security impact.
