| Sumario: | This Master's thesis focuses on the increasing need for organizations to prioritize and maintain continuous security reviews for applications deployed in cloud environments. As more businesses embrace cloud computing, AWS has emerged as a leading provider offering a wide range of services. However, this growing reliance on AWS also increases the vulnerability to security threats. This thesis aims to highlight the potential risks associated with AWS deployments and emphasize the significance of conducting ongoing security reviews to ensure the integrity, confidentiality, and availability of applications and data. To accomplish this, the main objective of this project is to develop an automated tool that highlights potentially weak security configurations in AWS environments, which would help organizations be aware of the risks they are being exposed to. |
