ABCD

Azure Attack Path Mapping

A single misconfigured role assignment is not a finding, but a starting point. This assessment maps where it ends.

A structured, read-only assessment of your Azure and Entra ID environment built around how threat actors actually chain permissions into access to critical assets.


Who this is for

Organizations with Azure or Entra ID infrastructure that need to understand their actual attack surface before a red team exercise, regulatory assessment, or board-level risk review. Typically engaged when the question is not whether risks exist, but which ones the current configuration actually makes viable.

The engagement

The engagement runs under the name Assumed Breach Cloud Diagnostic. Read-only access is used to map the permission graph across the Microsoft Cloud environment, covering Azure resources, Entra ID identities, and the trust relationships between them. Attack paths are modeled analytically from the collected configuration data. No active exploitation is performed and no changes are made to your environment.

Coverage areas

Tier-0 Compromise

From realistic attacker footholds, the assessment maps permission sequences that lead to core infrastructure, privileged roles, or high-value data. The starting position could be a user account, a service principal, a guest, or any identity with some degree of access.

Workload Identity Exposure

Service principals and Managed Identities are enumerated for what they can reach, what they can be used to reach through other identities, and where they appear in escalation chains.

External Trust Abuse

Guest accounts, B2B collaborations, external vendor integrations, and federated credentials are evaluated for how far they can move once a foothold is established.

How it works

01

Scope agreement

A read-only account is provisioned for the engagement. Nothing is installed. The exact access required is agreed before the engagement begins.

02

Structured enumeration

The full resource and identity landscape is mapped across Azure and Entra ID. Resources, role assignments, workload identities, and trust configuration are collected from the environment as-is.

03

Attack path analysis

Realistic paths from observed starting positions to high-value targets are modeled from the collected data. Paths are grounded in actual configuration, not theoretical assumptions.

04

Findings and context

Each identified path is documented with the supporting configuration evidence and assessed for technical severity.

05

Report walkthrough

Findings are presented in a live session with your team. Each path is walked through with supporting evidence and remediation guidance.

What you receive

Executive summary. One-page business risk overview written for non-technical stakeholders.
Technical findings report. Each path documented with the reconstructed attack chain, supporting configuration evidence, and remediation guidance.
Attack path diagrams. Purpose-built visuals generated directly from the engagement data, not generic screenshots.
Prioritized remediation list. Each path with the configuration changes required to break the chain and a technical effort and impact assessment as a starting point for prioritization.

A brief call to discuss your environment, what you need to understand, and whether the engagement is the right fit.
