TruffleHog AWS Analyze reduces remediation time on leaked AWS credentials

Truffle Security launched TruffleHog AWS Analyze, which maps leaked AWS keys' permissions and role assumptions; research found 88% of 64,024 leaked keys still active.

Truffle Security announced TruffleHog AWS Analyze, a TruffleHog Enterprise feature that enriches leaked AWS credentials with identity, effective permissions, and role-assumption context to help teams assess blast radius and prioritize remediation, extending earlier coverage of SaaS and Google Cloud to AWS. Truffle Security research on 64,024 unique leaked AWS keys found 88% still active, a median exposure of five years, only 14% rotated, 84% with full administrator access, and 1 in 6 being root keys, including 929 keys AWS had flagged via its compromised-key quarantine policy that still authenticated. A scan of 7.6 petabytes of public AI training data on Hugging Face found 3,343 live AWS keys, over 900 of which could list S3 buckets holding at least 51.7 TB of private data.

Your Cloud Security Checklist Doesn't Work the Way You Think It Does

Intruder's 2026 Cloud Security Index found misconfiguration risk profiles differ sharply across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud across 3,000 organizations.

Intruder analyzed misconfiguration data from 3,000 organizations across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud for its 2026 Cloud Security Index. Weak IAM controls and missing logging affected 80-98% of accounts regardless of provider, while exposed services ranged from 76% on AWS to just 8% on Google Cloud. Top issues included S3 buckets without HTTPS enforcement (87% of AWS accounts), Entra ID users without MFA (55% of Azure accounts), and missing OS Login MFA (77% of Google Cloud accounts). Weak IAM prevalence rose with organization size, from 87% at SMEs to 98% at large enterprises, and midmarket organizations took the longest to remediate at 35 days on average.

Unmasking Cloud Identities: From Behavioral Clustering to Automated Detection

Unit 42 clusters behavior of 40,000+ AWS identities from 125 cloud environments to map functional roles and enable lightweight SQL-based detection.

Palo Alto Unit 42 built an unsupervised behavioral clustering model using UMAP and HDBSCAN on AWS CloudTrail logs to map cloud identities to functional roles such as administrators, backup services, security tooling and DevOps. The study analyzed over 40,000 identities across 125 cloud environments over two months. The researchers show that heuristics extracted from the clustering map can be implemented in standard SQL, enabling role classification at scale without running a continuous ML pipeline. The methodology extends to audit logs from other cloud providers, SaaS and Kubernetes.
