Cloud Security
Your cloud, configured the way the auditor wishes it were.
Cloud Security covers posture, identity, and workload protection across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud — including the accounts that were spun up for a demo three years ago and never closed. We find what is exposed, fix the configuration that exposes it, and put guardrails in place so it stays fixed.
What it does
Cloud providers secure the infrastructure. Everything above it — who can reach a bucket, which roles can assume which, whether a database has a public endpoint, what a container is allowed to do — is the customer's responsibility, and it is where nearly every cloud breach begins. The failure is rarely a sophisticated exploit. It is a permission that was too broad, a port that was open for a test, a log that was never turned on.
We treat configuration as the attack surface it is. An initial assessment maps every account, role, network path, and workload against hardening benchmarks and your own risk appetite. The fixes are made as code, so they are reviewable and repeatable. Then continuous monitoring watches for drift, identity review keeps privilege from creeping back, and detection is tuned so that the alerts your team sees are the ones that matter.
Capabilities
Posture assessment and drift detection
Every account and subscription is measured against hardening benchmarks and your policies. After remediation, continuous checks catch a setting drifting back within minutes, not at the next audit.
Identity and privilege review
Roles, service accounts, cross-account trusts, and standing permissions are mapped and pruned to what is actually used. Privilege escalation paths are closed before someone finds them.
Segmentation and egress control
Virtual networks, security groups, private endpoints, and egress rules are redesigned so workloads reach only what they need — and data cannot leave by a path nobody is watching.
Workload and container hardening
Compute images, Kubernetes clusters, serverless functions, and container registries are locked down: minimal base images, admission controls, runtime policies, and vulnerability scanning in the build.
Logging, detection, and alert tuning
Control-plane and data-plane logging is switched on everywhere it should be, centralised, and wired to detections that are tuned against your environment so a real signal is not buried in noise.
Landing zones and guardrails as code
Account structure, baseline policies, and preventive controls are written in Terraform or native policy languages, so a new account is compliant on creation and a bad change is blocked, not just reported.
Frameworks we work against
Assessments are scored against the benchmarks your auditors and customers recognise, so the same finding means the same thing to everyone.
- CIS Benchmarks
- The provider-specific hardening baselines for AWS, Azure, GCP, and Kubernetes that our posture checks are built on.
- CSA Cloud Controls Matrix
- The Cloud Security Alliance control framework used to map findings across providers and to your compliance programme.
- NIST SP 800-53
- Control families for organisations that need to demonstrate alignment with US federal security requirements.
- ISO/IEC 27017
- Cloud-specific guidance layered on ISO 27001, covering shared-responsibility controls between you and the provider.
- SOC 2
- Evidence for the security, availability, and confidentiality criteria that customer due-diligence teams ask for.
- Well-Architected
- The security pillars of the AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud architecture frameworks, applied as review checklists.
Why teams bring us in
— Misconfiguration is the breach, so we fix the config
The work is not a report about what could go wrong. It is pull requests that change the settings, with the reasoning attached, reviewed by your team and merged.
— Guardrails in code, not in a PDF
Policies live in the same repositories as your infrastructure. A new engineer cannot create a public bucket because the platform will not let them, not because a document says not to.
— One view across every cloud you actually use
Most organisations run more than one provider whether they planned to or not. Posture, identity, and detection are reported in one place, in one severity scale, across all of them.
