An organization plans to adopt ScoutSuite for a wide range of cloud services. Which of the following uses of this tool would be the best fit for its capabilities?
Auditing storage buckets, identity settings, and network group configurations
Scanning for insecure file system privileges in persistent containers
Gathering data on third-party exploit payloads for container images
Reviewing network traffic logs from developer laptops
The utility is most effective when auditing and detecting insecure permissions across major providers. It inspects settings such as Identity and Access Management (IAM) controls, storage access levels, and security group configurations. Some of the other scenarios in the options are partially related to cloud analysis, but they focus on end-user workstations or container images in ways that do not align closely with the tool’s emphasis on cloud configuration and permissions.
