Frequently Asked Questions
What is a cloud storage misconfiguration?
It is a setting that exposes storage more widely than intended, such as a public bucket, overly broad policy or disabled access logging, often leading to data leaks.
How do you find public buckets?
Review access policies and ACLs, use account-level public access blocks and run posture tools that flag exposure. Attackers also search for bucket names, so naming should not reveal sensitive details.
How can public exposure be prevented?
Enable block-public-access settings, use least-privilege policies, turn on logging and scan regularly. This intermediate Codelivly room is free and shows how to identify and remediate these issues.
