Overkill Security

This part discusses the benefits and potential drawbacks of advisories issued by agencies like CISA and NSA, highlighting the importance of balancing security measures with operational needs.

This part outlines various mitigations and best practices recommended by CISA to strengthen cloud security, including the use of multi-factor authentication and continuous monitoring.

This part emphasizes the importance of basic cybersecurity practices, such as regular audits, secure password management, and timely patching, in defending against cloud attacks.

This part examines the sophistication and adaptability of cyber actors in their efforts to compromise cloud infrastructure.

This part explores the use of service and dormant accounts by cyber actors to gain access to cloud environments, highlighting the risks associated with these types of accounts.

This part discusses how cyber actors are expanding their targeting to include a broader range of cloud services and accounts, including service and dormant accounts.

This part emphasizes the critical role of initial access in cloud security, highlighting how cyber actors focus on gaining this initial foothold to launch further attacks.

This part explains how cyber actors use stolen access tokens and other authentication methods to bypass traditional password-based security measures in cloud environments.

This part provides a detailed look at the tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) used by cyber actors to gain initial access to cloud environments, including brute forcing, password spraying, and token authentication.

This part details how cyber actors are adapting their tactics to exploit cloud services, blending in with legitimate traffic to evade detection.
