Cloud Audit FAQs

Question 1

What is Cloud Audit and what does it do?

Accepted Answer

Cloud Audit is an open-source command-line tool designed to quickly scan AWS accounts for security vulnerabilities. It goes beyond simple findings by correlating them into exploitable attack paths, estimating breach costs, and providing instant, copy-paste remediation commands.

Question 2

Can Cloud Audit track security posture changes over time?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Cloud Audit includes built-in scan diff functionality, allowing users to compare current scans against previous ones. This helps track what vulnerabilities have been fixed, what new issues have emerged, and detect regressions without needing a separate dashboard or paid SaaS platform.

Question 3

What is the MCP Server for AI agents feature?

Accepted Answer

Cloud Audit offers the first free, standalone MCP Server for AI agent integration. This allows AI agents like Claude Code or VS Code Copilot to directly interact with Cloud Audit to scan AWS, retrieve findings, get remediations, and understand risk, all locally without external services.

Question 4

Does Cloud Audit provide remediation steps for findings?

Accepted Answer

Yes, for every detected finding, Cloud Audit provides direct, copy-paste remediation commands. This includes AWS CLI commands, Terraform HCL snippets, or links to official AWS documentation, enabling immediate fixes.

Question 5

How does Cloud Audit identify exploitable attack paths?

Accepted Answer

Unlike other scanners that provide flat lists of findings, Cloud Audit utilizes 16 attack chain rules, based on MITRE ATT&CK Cloud and Datadog research, to correlate individual vulnerabilities into realistic, exploitable attack paths an attacker would use.
