IaaS Cloud Security

Cloud Security Review for AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud

Your cloud provider secures its data centers. Your accounts, access rights, network rules, and data are your responsibility. We review your IaaS environment line by line and hand you a prioritized hardening plan, backed by doctoral research in cloud security.

Why review

In the cloud, most incidents start with a configuration, not a hacker genius

Cloud platforms are secure by design, but they are easy to misconfigure: one public storage bucket or one over-privileged account is enough.

The shared responsibility model

AWS, Microsoft, and Google are responsible for the security of the cloud. You remain responsible for security in the cloud: identities, permissions, network rules, data, and configuration.

AWS · Microsoft Azure shared responsibility

Identity is the new perimeter

Unused admin accounts, access keys that never expire, and accounts without multi-factor authentication are the most common ways into a cloud environment.

Research-backed expertise

Our founder's doctoral research focuses on cloud security in IaaS environments and on post-quantum cryptography, so your review goes beyond a generic checklist.

What we review

What we review in your cloud accounts

  • Identity and access: admin accounts, MFA, roles, unused users and access keys
  • Public exposure: storage buckets, snapshots, databases, and services open to the internet
  • Network: security groups, firewall rules, open ports, and segmentation
  • Logging and monitoring: audit trails enabled, retained, and actually reviewed
  • Encryption of data at rest and in transit, and key management
  • Backups and recovery: snapshots, cross-account copies, and restore tests
  • Quick wins that cost nothing, and a plan for the longer-term fixes

FAQ

Cloud security: questions from business owners

Isn't security the cloud provider's job?

Partly. Under the shared responsibility model, AWS, Microsoft, and Google secure their infrastructure. Your accounts, permissions, network rules, and data remain your responsibility, and that is where most cloud incidents start.

Which platforms do you review?

Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud infrastructure services, including virtual machines, storage, networking, and identity.

Do you need administrator access?

No. We work with a temporary read-only role that you create and remove yourself. We never change anything in your environment.

Will the review affect our applications?

No. A configuration review reads settings; it does not run attacks against your workloads. If you also want active testing, we scope a penetration test separately.

How much does a cloud review cost?

It depends on the number of accounts and workloads. After the free call you receive a fixed-price quote before any work starts.

Can you help us fix the findings?

Yes. The hardening plan tells your team or provider exactly what to change, and we can help with implementation at our hourly consulting rate.
