"Clouditor: Continuous Assurance of Cloud Services"

Christian Banse

Head of Department "Service & Application Security (SAS)" at Fraunhofer AISEC

In this talk, we will present the open-source project Clouditor, developed at Fraunhofer AISEC. Its main goal is to continuously evaluate if a cloud-based application (built using either a hyperscaler, such as AWS, or based on open source approaches like OpenStack/Kubernetes) is configured in a secure way and thus complies with security requirements.

These requirements can stem from various sources that define the state-of-the art in cloud security. Examples include the Cloud Computing Compliance Controls Catalogue (C5) issued by BSI or the upcoming European Cybersecurity Certification Scheme for Cloud Services (EUCS) by ENISA. Using an ontology-based approach that maps vendor-specific properties to a generic representation, new cloud services from other vendors can easily be added to the open-source project.
