Cloud security
Identity and access management, network controls, encryption, logging and posture management for AWS, Azure, Google Cloud and VPS environments.
Locked-down cloud accounts with visibility into what changes.
6 deliverables, a 4-stage approach and 6 related technologies.
Overview
Cloud misconfiguration — public storage buckets, over-privileged keys, open databases — is a leading cause of data exposure. The fix is a secure baseline enforced as code.
We review and harden cloud accounts: identity and roles, network exposure, encryption, logging, key rotation and alerting on risky changes.
What we deliver
- Account structure and IAM review
- Network exposure review
- Encryption at rest and in transit
- Centralised logging and alerts
- Secrets management setup
- Hardening as code
