Overview
Cloud engagements in the Cye Exposure Management Platform assess your organization's cloud environments — like AWS or Azure — to identify potential attack paths, misconfigurations, and security gaps. These are automated, ongoing assessments that require integration with your cloud platform. Once connected, the Cye Exposure Management Platform scans the environment daily to provide updated findings and risk insights.
What is a Cloud Engagement?
A cloud engagement is a type of assessment focused on your organization’s cloud infrastructure. It analyzes cloud-specific risks, including:
Misconfigured permissions
Exposed services
Weak identity or access controls
Potential lateral movement routes
The results are integrated into your Org. Attack Graph, Findings, and Maturity dashboards, just like with other engagements.
Available Cloud Engagement Types
AWS Engagement — Integrates with Amazon Web Services
Azure Engagement — Integrates with Microsoft Azure
Each engagement pulls configuration and security data directly from your cloud provider.
Note: Setup is typically performed with support from the CYE services team.
Important notes
Cloud assessments require initial integration — reach out to your CYE account manager for support
Only authorized users with proper roles can manage integration and engagement setup
These scans are automatic once the engagement is active — no manual triggering required
Wrap-up / Next Steps
Cloud environments evolve quickly — and so do their risks. By defining cloud engagements in the Cye platform, you gain continuous visibility into misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and exposure across your AWS or Azure infrastructure.
