Cybersecurity services: Azure pentest

Azure penetration testing is a safe simulation of cyberattacks on the Microsoft Azure cloud platform to identify vulnerabilities in configurations, services, accounts, and access.
This security assessment helps evaluate and improve the level of protection against internal and external threats.

  • We will check all critical components
    We focus on assessing the security of applications, infrastructure, and services operating in the Microsoft Azure environment.
  • We will help strengthen your protection
    We provide clients with a report containing actionable, prioritized recommendations for remediating identified security issues.
  • Our services are for all companies
    Azure pentest is relevant for any business that uses cloud infrastructure, regardless of its size or industry.

Features of Azure penetration testing

During Azure penetration testing, we take into account the specifics of cloud services and the provider’s mechanisms. Unlike other types, this pentest is more complex because it requires compliance with the client’s internal business rules and Microsoft policies.

Vulnerabilities in Azure cloud services are often related not to code errors but to misconfigurations. Therefore, Datami experts, simulating an attack, focus particularly on assessing configurations.

  • Procedural requirements of Microsoft Azure. Mandatory coordination of the testing scope, access, and restrictions with the provider.
  • Identity-access approach. Assessment of Entra ID and permissions to identify account risks and privilege escalation.
  • Testing specifics. Focus on testing configurations (roles, NSG/Firewall rules, endpoints, etc.).

Advantages of Azure penetration testing
Advantages of Azure penetration testing

Azure pentesting provides insight into how well your cloud resources are protected against external and internal threats. Early detection of vulnerabilities allows you to address them before they can be exploited by attackers.

Through penetration testing, you can protect your business from attacks, achieve compliance with standards, and reduce the risks of financial and reputational losses.

By ordering our service, you will receive:

  • Reduced the likelihood of incidents. Timely identification of vulnerabilities lowers hackers’ chances of successful attacks.
  • Cost savings. Preventive measures are significantly less expensive than eliminating the consequences of an attack and help avoid penalties.
  • Increased trust from clients and partners. A reliable security system strengthens your reputation and ensures data protection.
  • Readiness for audits. The Azure pentest report helps you prepare for audits.
Azure penetration testing report
The final Azure pentest report includes an executive summary, a description of the goals and methodology, a list of identified vulnerabilities with their severity level and potential impact, detailed remediation recommendations, a prioritized action plan, and appendices containing technical details.

We provide a sample report for our clients to review.
Our approach to Azure pentesting

We conduct testing in a controlled environment in compliance with Microsoft Azure policies - before starting, we always coordinate the testing scope, access level, and rules.

To thoroughly assess cloud resources, we combine automated scanning with manual testing methods. The scenarios are selected based on the provided access level: black-box, grey-box, or white-box.

Black-box
Black-box

A “from scratch” test, where the pentester has no access to internal information. This is the most realistic simulation of a hacker’s actions.

Gray-box
Grey-box
A combination of Black-box and White-box strategies – testers receive limited information for conducting the pentest.
White-box
White-box

The client provides all the necessary information for the most in-depth security assessment and detection of hidden issues.

Most common Azure vulnerabilities
01.
Excessive user privileges
Roles such as Contributor or Owner grant unnecessary permissions that provide access to confidential resources.
example_1
02.
Uncontrolled storage access
Incorrect configurations or leakage of SAS-URL links allow unauthorized individuals to access files in Blob Storage.
example_2
03.
Open ports and IPs
Critical systems have public access due to misconfigured NSG or Azure Firewall settings, creating a risk of scanning and exploitation.
example_3
04.
Key Vault issues
Secrets are stored in insecure locations (e.g., in code or pipelines) or are accessible from untrusted contexts.
example_4
05.
Unsecured endpoints
Lack of authorization or protection, weak CORS configurations, or outdated dependencies create a risk of attacks through public APIs.
example_5
06.
CI/CD pipeline risks
Tokens or keys are stored in plain text, and pipelines (CI/CD) have direct access to production resources.
example_6
07.
Insufficient monitoring
Azure Monitor or Log Analytics is not configured or functions improperly, making it difficult to detect and investigate incidents.
example_7
08.
Weak authentication policies
Lack of multi-factor protection, misconfigurations in trust/consent settings, or excessive permissions for applications.
example_8
09.
Lack of microsegmentation
No separation of network segments, allowing an attacker to move laterally through the infrastructure after compromising a single point.

Frequently asked question

The duration depends on the scope: from a few days for a small stack to 2–4 weeks in large multi-tenant environments.

For standard tests, special permission from Microsoft is usually not required, but approval from the account owner is mandatory. We follow the provider’s policy and are ready to coordinate all actions.

No, we organize testing to avoid downtime and minimize risks. All critical actions are performed exclusively in a controlled mode.

It is generally recommended to perform Azure penetration testing at least once a year or after significant changes in the infrastructure (new services, migration, integration). For critical systems, it is advisable to conduct assessments more frequently – once a quarter or every six months.

Yes, at the client’s request, we can conduct a free repeat of Azure penetration testing to verify the effectiveness of the fixes and confirm that the risks have been eliminated.

Azure pentesting is suitable for businesses of any size because the threats are the same for everyone: data leaks, service disruptions, and financial and reputational losses. For startups, security vulnerabilities can be critical, while for corporations, they can cost millions.
