Cloud Security Configuration

Prevent cloud missteps before they become incidents

Cloud platforms move fast - and so do attackers. A single misconfigured setting can expose data, create attack paths or break compliance. We help you spot and fix those issues early - aligning your environment with best practice and your business needs.

Identify security gaps in your cloud config
Align with AWS, Azure and GCP best practices
Strengthen compliance without blocking delivery

Service detail

What does a Cloud Security Configuration review include?

This service includes a cloud environment scoping session, technical review of key configuration areas, and a prioritised findings report. We deliver results in 3–5 days depending on scope. Reviews are based on exported config data or secure read-only access - whichever works best for you.
