1. Root account has no MFA or has access keys 2. S3 buckets with public ACLs 'just for testing' 3. Security groups with 0.0.0.0/0 on 22 or 5432 4. No CloudTrail in all regions 5. IAM users with AdministratorAccess for CI 6. No budget alerts None of these need a security team. Spend one afternoon on them.
