Kim Crawley has done a great job of organizing a very complex subject for the average engineer to consume. She provides the necessary details the seasoned Cyber Professional that is looking to start working on Cloud use cases for their skillset.Often we get lost in our engineering mind trying to make everything perfect before approaching a new skillset that we know we need to move forward in our career. Kim's approach makes each lesson bite sized and easy for a time-boxed learning session.I highly recommend buying the book for any semi-technical business leader as she gives you the crash course in what are the security personnel talking about in this meeting. If nothing else, buy the book to identify what you need to learn about cloud security.Her approach to the "Purple Team" is something I highly welcomed in the book. Read it to find out what I'm talking about.Thank you Kim for your great work. I enjoyed my time with your book!

If you are getting started with penetration testing, more specifically cloud penetration testing, this book has everything you need to get started - it starts with penetration testing basics, which prepare you for more specific tasks and tools of penetration testing across the three major clouds. It discusses fundamentals, tools, and techniques, but not in a very deep sense - ideal for beginners. Seems that this book is not meant for the more experienced audience, although even this type of audience can find a thing or two for themselves (mostly in additional references). Would recommend this book as an entry point into penetration testing and multi-cloud penetration testing, to get acquainted with the basic procedures and tools.

Honestly, this is one of my favorite subjects, and I learned a LOT with this one. If you are interested in upping your pentest or red team game.... dont think, just buy this. Like now. Thorough, explained well, to the point, and very informative.

Not too technical. Not too theoretical. A good blend of theory and practical examples that give the cloud pentesting beginner a great idea of where to start in this pentesting space. Tools used are clearly identified and explained. This book is definitely for cloud pentesting beginners like me. I am happy with my purchase of the book. Thanks Kim!
