🐐 CloudGoat Scenario

CloudGoat is a vulnerable AWS lab environment created by Rhino Security Labs. It lets you practice real cloud security attacks by deploying AWS setups that contain intentional weaknesses.

Each scenario works like a capture-the-flag challenge where you:

• Explore the AWS environment
• Find misconfigurations
• Exploit them to reach the final goal

Some scenarios are easy, some are difficult, and many can be completed in multiple ways - just like real-world cloud attacks.

This section of the blog will include write-ups for different CloudGoat scenarios, showing:

• How the attack was discovered
• How the exploitation was done
• What could be done to fix or prevent it

If you’re learning cloud penetration testing, these walkthroughs will help you build hands-on AWS security skills.
