How much does a cloud penetration test cost in Malaysia?

Cloud pentests in Malaysia range RM 12,000-25,000 for a single AWS/Azure/GCP account configuration review and RM 40,000-150,000 for multi-account enterprise estates with IAM, container, and serverless coverage. nCrypt scopes by account count, region count, and depth — including CIS benchmarks, attack-path mapping, and breach simulation.

Do you test AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud?

Yes — nCrypt covers AWS (IAM, S3, Lambda, EKS, Cognito), Azure (Entra ID, AKS, Functions, Storage), and GCP (IAM, GKE, Cloud Run, Cloud Functions). Multi-cloud and hybrid pentests are common for Malaysian FIs running BNM-approved primary + DR providers. Reports map findings to CIS Benchmarks and CSA STAR.

What is the difference between a cloud configuration review and a cloud pentest?

Configuration review is read-only — we audit IAM policies, network rules, encryption, and logging against CIS Benchmarks. Pentest goes further: we actively exploit misconfigurations to demonstrate real attack paths — privilege escalation, cross-account pivot, exfiltration via misconfigured S3/Storage, and Kubernetes container escape. BNM RMiT-aligned engagements typically require both.

Does BNM allow public-cloud hosting for Malaysian financial institutions?

Yes — BNM's RMiT and the 2023 Cloud Policy permit public-cloud hosting subject to material risk assessment, data residency controls, and prior notification or approval depending on the workload classification. nCrypt's cloud pentests include the RMiT clause-by-clause cloud-control checklist that BNM examiners use during technology risk audits.

Cloud pentest procurement guide

Separate configuration assurance from an authorized cloud attack simulation

Cloud security work should state exactly which accounts, subscriptions, projects, identities and workloads are included. nCrypt combines a read-only control review with approved attack-path testing when the customer needs evidence of exploitability. The rules of engagement distinguish safe validation from actions that could interrupt production, change persistent resources or access regulated data.

Identity and privilege paths

We review human, workload and federated identities; role assignments; permission boundaries; trust policies; secrets; access keys and privilege-escalation paths. Testing follows an approved starting identity so the report shows what that identity could actually reach.

Network and data exposure

Coverage includes public services, security groups and firewall rules, private connectivity, storage permissions, encryption, logging and cross-account sharing. Findings distinguish internet exposure from risk that requires an existing foothold.

Workloads and delivery pipelines

Where included, we assess virtual machines, serverless functions, containers, Kubernetes, registries, metadata services and CI/CD trust. Active container escape or persistence techniques require explicit approval and a suitable non-production environment.

Detection and evidence

CloudTrail, Azure Activity Logs, Google Cloud audit logs and security-platform alerts are reviewed against the agreed test actions. This lets security teams verify both preventive controls and whether meaningful activity reached monitoring and response workflows.

What we need before kickoff

Account/subscription/project inventory, architecture diagram and named business owners.
Read-only audit access plus separate constrained test identities for approved exploitation.
Provider pentest-policy review, maintenance window, emergency contacts and rollback ownership.
Data classification and explicit exclusions for regulated workloads, backups and shared services.

What you receive

Control and attack-path findings separated by cloud account, identity and affected asset.
Reproducible evidence with sensitive identifiers and customer data masked.
Remediation guidance for IAM, network, workload, logging and organization-level guardrails.
Executive risk narrative plus a verification report for retested fixes.

Boundaries and assumptions

No resource deletion, denial-of-service, cryptomining, persistence or unapproved data extraction.
SaaS platforms and third-party managed services are excluded without their written authorization.
A configuration review does not claim exploitability unless an attack path is safely validated.
Kubernetes, application and source-code testing are separate scopes unless named in the proposal.
