## Lessons Learned
- Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) is critical for preventing initial access.
- Misconfigurations in cloud-native environments present significant avenues for advanced attacks like supply chain compromise.
## Recommendations
- Conduct immediate, comprehensive audits of all cloud configurations (e.g., IAM policies, storage buckets, network settings) to identify and remediate misconfigurations.
- Implement automated tooling (CSPM) to continuously monitor the cloud environment for insecure configurations that could facilitate initial access.
- Review and harden the process for deploying updates or code into the production environment to mitigate supply chain risks.
