Cloud security: see exposures before the incident
Cloud security often starts with basics: forgotten public storage, an open RDP/SSH port, an overly privileged account “just for troubleshooting”.
Cloud Inspector runs these checks read-only and prioritises them in the same report as FinOps — for any IT team that must decide fast.
Most cloud incidents exploit mundane open configurations. A regular audit does not replace a SOC, but it shrinks the visible surface before someone else finds it.
On a multi-cloud estate, consistency matters: same severity, same vocabulary, same action plan — whether Azure, AWS, GCP, OVHcloud or Scaleway.
Security controls at launch
- Publicly accessible storage or services
- Overly permissive network rules
- Identities with excessive privileges
- Stale application keys

Missing backups and soon-to-expire certificates are part of the same cloud audit — because exposure without backup is compounded risk. Cloud audit
What Cloud Inspector is not
It is not an ISO 27001, NIS2 or CIS certification. It is technical help: findings, justifications, action plan — useful to prepare compliance, not replace it. FAQ
Least privilege
If the connected identity has write rights, the audit will not start. Customer security beats scan convenience.
