π NSAuditor AI Enterprise Edition v0.18.0 is here β a deep GCP false-negative hardening release.
π οΈ 5 detection-gap fixes that stop "silent cleans":
1οΈβ£ Legacy GCS bucket ACL tracking (catches allUsers:READER when UBLA is off)
2οΈβ£ Project-scope SA key creation flagging
3οΈβ£ Transitive impersonation graph mapping (BFS up to 4 hops)
4οΈβ£ Pure ADC auth support β no key file needed
5οΈβ£ Fail-closed evidence routing (AccessDenied = FAILED, not clean)
π One Scan, Six Frameworks: SOC 2, HIPAA, NIST CSF 2.0, PCI DSS v4.0.1, ISO 27001:2022 & CIS Controls v8 β 62 signed evidence artifacts per run with RFC 3161 timestamps + SHA-256 sidecars.
π Now native in Claude Desktop via MCP: start_assessment, prioritize_risks, compliance_check, export_report & more β turning your AI assistant into an autonomous cloud compliance auditor.

NSAuditor AI EE 0.18.0 is live: GCP false-negative hardening.
A cloud audit that reads "clean" can still be wrong. This release closes five real GCP detection gaps β no new controls, all six compliance matrices unchanged. 28 plugins.
What we fixed π§΅
4/ Both were caught by a new mandatory pre-publish validation gate β pack β global-install β real scan β live run β before they shipped.
A false negative is the worst defect an audit tool can ship. We hunt them.

3/ Fail-closed, not silently clean.
A denied GCP enumeration now routes into findings and fails its own controls. Plus two pre-existing bugs β a project-IAM check on the wrong client (never ran) and an IAM-admin client unauthenticated under pure ADC β both fixed + live-validated.
2/ IAM impersonation completeness.
A project-scope serviceAccountKeyAdmin can mint a long-lived key for ANY service account = offline impersonation of the whole project. And a custom role can grant actAs admin-equivalence. Both are now detected instead of reading clean.
1/ Legacy-ACL public buckets.
A GCS bucket made public via a legacy ACL (allUsers / allAuthenticatedUsers) while Uniform Bucket-Level Access is off was reading clean β we only checked IAM-policy exposure. Now we scan the bucket ACL + a sampled object-ACL surface.

Until now an NSAuditor AI cloud audit looked at ONE AWS region β whichever your account was set to. A public bucket in eu-west-1, a wide-open SG in ap-southeast-2: invisible if you happened to scan us-east-1.
EE 0.17.0 adds --aws-region. π§΅
Plugin count unchanged at 28; all six compliance matrices unchanged. This is reach, not new claims.

Until now an NSAuditor AI cloud audit looked at ONE AWS region β whichever your account was set to. A public bucket in eu-west-1, a wide-open SG in ap-southeast-2: invisible if you happened to scan us-east-1.
EE 0.17.0 adds --aws-region. π§΅
Safe by default. No flag = single region (behaviour-preserving), and it discloses the regions it didn't scan. An unknown region code fails fast β a scan never silently mis-scopes.
In Claude Desktop, "all regions" is covered automatically in small batches: full reach, no timeouts.
The part we care about most: a region it genuinely can't reach is an explicit evidence gap β the CloudTrail verdict fails closed over it, never a silent "all clear." Confirmed live in Claude Desktop.
npm i -g @nsasoft/nsauditor-ai-ee@latest
We shipped NSAuditor AI EE 0.16.7 β and it came straight from a real bug report. An operator asked Claude Desktop to "audit my AWS account" and the CloudTrail auditor came back oddly thin. π§΅
0.16.7: a short per-region connect/request timeout + wider fan-out β a dead region fails in ~2s, not 30. And an errored region is now recorded and skipped, not fatal. 234 seconds β ~13 seconds, fully multi-region.
