Find risks before attackers do.

Cloud Misconfigurations

Continuously detect insecure cloud configurations across AWS, Azure, and GCP — from public buckets to overly permissive IAM roles — before they become breaches.

The problem

One wrong setting can expose everything.

Public S3 buckets, overly permissive IAM roles, open security groups, and unencrypted storage are still the leading causes of cloud breaches. These misconfigurations are easy to introduce and hard to catch manually — especially as infrastructure grows across multiple accounts and regions.
One operating picture

One platform. Every cloud risk.

MadStack continuously scans your cloud environments for misconfigurations, prioritizes real risk, and gives your team clear, actionable fixes — without the noise.

Focus on the misconfigurations that actually matter — based on exposure, blast radius, and business impact.

Fix with guidance

Fix with clear guidance

Every finding comes with context, severity, and step-by-step remediation so your team can fix issues fast.

✦ What gets detected

Findings, ranked by what matters.

Prioritized by exposure level, potential blast radius, and whether the resource is publicly accessible or holds sensitive data.

◈

Critical

Publicly exposed storage, open databases, or admin roles with excessive permissions that can lead to full account takeover.

◷ Fix immediately
!

High

Overly permissive security groups, missing encryption, or weak network controls that significantly increase attack surface.

◷ Remediate this week
↗

Medium

Logging disabled, outdated configurations, or non-critical resources with moderate exposure risk.

◷ Plan & monitor

FAQ

Questions, answered.

We currently support AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform. Multi-account and multi-region scanning is fully supported across all three.

You can run continuous monitoring or scheduled scans. Most teams enable continuous scanning so new misconfigurations are detected within minutes of being introduced.

No. We prioritize findings based on real exposure and business impact, and provide clear context so teams only act on issues that actually matter.
