Cloud Security

Cloud Security Posture Assessment

Find out exactly how exposed your cloud environment is. We review configuration, identity, network and data controls across your accounts and subscriptions, then hand you a risk-ranked plan your engineers can execute.

The challenge

Cloud environments change hundreds of times a day. Accounts multiply, permissions accumulate, and a single misconfigured bucket or role can expose an entire organisation. Native tools generate thousands of alerts but rarely tell you which ones matter.

Typical risks we uncover

  1. 01Over-privileged identities and long-lived access keys
  2. 02Publicly exposed storage, databases and management interfaces
  3. 03Incomplete logging that leaves incidents invisible

Cloud Security

What we do

An evidence-based review of your AWS, Azure or Google Cloud estate, with a prioritised remediation plan.

01

Configuration review

Automated and manual review against CIS Benchmarks and provider best practice, across every account, subscription and project.

02

Identity & permissions analysis

Map effective permissions, privilege-escalation paths and cross-account trust to find the identities attackers would target first.

03

Network exposure mapping

Identify internet-facing assets, permissive security groups, flat networks and unprotected management planes.

04

Data protection review

Check encryption, key management, backups and access controls for your most sensitive data stores.

05

Logging & detection coverage

Verify that audit logs, flow logs and alerts would actually reveal an attacker, and that someone would see them.

06

Attack-path analysis

Chain individual findings into realistic attack paths to show which fixes remove the most risk.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Talk to a consultant about your environment. The first call is free and under NDA if you need it.

Talk to an expert
01Do you need administrator access?

No. We work with a read-only, time-limited role that you create and control, and every action is recorded in your own audit trail.

02Which cloud providers do you cover?

AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud, including multi-cloud and hybrid estates. We also review Kubernetes clusters running on those platforms.

03How is this different from a CSPM tool?

Tools find misconfigurations; we determine which ones matter. We validate findings, chain them into attack paths and turn them into a realistic plan, and we can help you tune the tools you already own.
