NAME

geearr-cloud — cloud security by George Rios

Cloud Security: Cloud security without the 4,000-item findings list.

SYNOPSIS

geearr cloud [--iam] [--exposure] [--detection] [--zero-trust] <account>…

DESCRIPTION

Most cloud breaches are not zero-days; they are an over-privileged role, a public bucket, a leaked key or a forgotten environment. George reviews your cloud the way an attacker would traverse it — from the internet, from a compromised workload, from a leaked credential — and turns the result into a short, prioritized list your engineers can actually close.

OPTIONS — WHAT GETS TESTED

--iam · Identity & access

  • IAM privilege-escalation path analysis
  • Least-privilege roles & permission boundaries
  • Workload identity & key-less CI via OIDC federation
  • Break-glass & root/owner account controls
  • Cross-account & third-party trust review

--exposure · Exposure & data

  • Public storage, snapshots & databases
  • Security groups, WAF & edge configuration
  • Secrets in env vars, images & state files
  • Encryption, KMS key policies & rotation
  • Backup integrity & restore testing

--detection · Detection & architecture

  • CloudTrail / Activity Log / audit-log coverage
  • Alerts on the events attackers actually trigger
  • Zero Trust access: Cloudflare One, IAP, Entra
  • Edge & serverless security: Workers, Lambda, Functions
  • IaC guardrails: Terraform, Pulumi

OUTPUT — WHAT YOU GET

  1. 01Attack-path map from the internet and from a compromised workload
  2. 02Prioritized findings mapped to CIS Benchmarks
  3. 03Least-privilege IAM policies ready to apply
  4. 04Logging & detection gap analysis with rule suggestions
  5. 05Remediation pairing sessions with your platform team

EXAMPLES

$ geearr cloud --iam aws:prod  path: ci-deployer → iam:PassRole → AdministratorAccess  fix: scoped PassRole + permission boundary (diff attached)
$ geearr cloud --exposure --detection aws:prod azure:corp  public: 2 snapshots · 1 storage container  alerting gaps: 5 high-signal events not monitored

FAQ

[+]

What does a cloud security assessment include?

A cloud security assessment reviews identity and access management, network exposure, data storage, secrets, encryption, logging and incident-detection coverage across your AWS, Azure, GCP or Cloudflare accounts. The goal is to identify realistic attack paths and fix the highest-impact misconfigurations first, not to produce thousands of low-value alerts.

[+]

Which cloud platforms do you cover?

Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Cloudflare — including Workers, Pages, R2, D1, Zero Trust and WAF. Hybrid environments and SaaS platforms such as GitHub, Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace are commonly included in scope.

EXIT STATUS

0 when every finding is closed and retested. Anything else means we keep going.
