transilienceai Cloud Defense
The blue-team counterpart to cloud-containers. For each attacker move — lateral movement, privilege escalation, data exfiltration, defense evasion — this skill gives the log event to alert on and the single control that removes the technique. Use it to turn an offensive cloud finding into a concrete detection and remediation.
When to use
- Writing the remediation / hardening section of a cloud pentest report.
- Cloud detection engineering: deciding which control-plane events to alert on.
- Reviewing an AWS / Azure / GCP account's posture against the post-compromise chain.
Workflow
- Confirm the logging prerequisites are in place (org-wide trail, data events, threat detection on) — without them the signals below are invisible.
- Map each attacker stage to its detection signal — see reference/detection-signals.md.
- Apply the preventive control that breaks each stage — see reference/hardening-controls.md.
- Re-run the matching offensive technique from
cloud-containersto confirm the control holds or the alert fires.
