• Review IAM policies and roles
• Analyze cloud resource configurations
• Test cloud-native security controls
• Use Prowler and ScoutSuite

3. Kubernetes Security

• Audit Kubernetes clusters
• Implement Pod security standards
• Review network policies
• Analyze RBAC configurations
• Test container escape scenarios
• Use Kube-bench and Kube-hunter

4. Advanced Penetration Testing

• Conduct red team operations
• Exploit logic flaws and business risks
• Test API security comprehensively
• Bypass WAF and security controls
• Conduct social engineering tests
• Document exploitation chains

5. Cryptographic Security

• Use interactive testing (IAST)
• Implement runtime protection (RASP)
• Test for business logic flaws
• Use fuzzing for input validation

9. Malware & Supply Chain Security

• Analyze software supply chain risks
• Test for dependency confusion
• Audit CI/CD pipeline security
