// services / cloud security
Find the cloud settings quietly leaving you exposed.
Most cloud breaches don’t need a clever exploit, just one storage bucket left open, one over-permissioned role, one key in the wrong place. We map your AWS, GCP or Azure setup, review it against how attackers actually get in, and work with your team to close the gaps, then verify each one is shut.
// what a cloud assessment is
A hard look at how your cloud is really configured.
A cloud security assessment is a structured review of your cloud accounts, identities, storage, network and logging against security best practice. It surfaces the misconfigurations and excess access that scanners miss and attackers love, then ranks them by what an intruder could actually do, so you fix the exposures that matter first.
Configuration, not just CVEs
The risk in cloud is usually how it’s set up, not an unpatched box. That’s what we go after.
Ranked by blast radius
Findings are ordered by what an attacker could reach with them, not by a raw severity label.
// what we review
Every layer an attacker would poke at.
Identity & access (IAM)
Over-permissioned roles, stale keys, missing MFA and the paths to privilege escalation.
Storage exposure
Public buckets, open snapshots and data stores reachable from places they shouldn’t be.
Network & segmentation
Security groups, open ports, exposed services and flat networks with no blast-radius control.
Logging & detection
Whether you would actually see an intrusion: audit logs, alerting and coverage gaps.
Secrets & keys
Hardcoded credentials, unrotated keys and secrets sitting where they can be scraped.
Posture monitoring
Continuous checks so drift and new misconfigurations get caught, not just today’s snapshot.
// how the assessment runs
From full picture to closed gaps.
01
Map the environment
We inventory accounts, identities, services and data across your cloud.
02
Review against best practice
We check each layer against how attacks actually unfold, not a generic list.
03
Risk-rank the findings
Every issue rated by real blast radius, so priorities are obvious.
04
Fix with your team
We work through the changes with your engineers, in the right order.
05
Verify and monitor
We confirm each fix holds, and can set up posture monitoring so it stays that way.
// proof
What we found in a real cloud.
For a venture-backed technology company, we reviewed their AWS and GCP environments end to end, surfaced what mattered, and worked through the fixes with their team. Client name withheld and specifics anonymised at their request.
900+
AWS findings surfaced and triaged
580+
GCP findings surfaced and triaged
100%
endpoints brought under EDR
An active intrusion was also detected and contained during the engagement.
// where we work
AWS, GCP and Azure, reviewed on their own terms.
Each cloud fails in its own ways. We know the default traps in all three and review yours against how that specific platform actually gets breached.
AWS
IAM, S3, security groups, and the account structure most teams outgrow.
GCP
IAM bindings, buckets, service accounts and project-level exposure.
Azure
Entra ID, RBAC, storage and network security groups.
// frequently asked
Cloud security questions, answered straight.
What is a cloud security assessment?
A structured review of your cloud accounts, identities, storage, network and logging against best practice. It finds the misconfigurations and excess access that lead to breaches, and ranks them by real impact so you fix the right things first.
AWS or GCP, do you cover both?
