Unit 42 Cloud Threat Report, 2H 2020

A new study

Did you know the majority of cloud security incidents are easily avoidable? In fact, our research team found that 65% of all such incidents were the result of customer misconfigurations.

In the new Unit 42 Cloud Threat Report, 2H 2020, our researchers detail their latest findings from an expansive look into identity security. What they discovered was shocking: One simple IAM misconfiguration allowed them to compromise an entire cloud environment and bypass all security controls.

Given the severity of this compromise, along with its ease of execution, they then set out to measure just how pervasive IAM misconfigurations were across all major cloud platforms.
