Cloud & Platform

Cloud Security. Close the gaps, and keep them closed.

Cloud moves faster than the controls around it. A bucket goes public, a role gets too much access, an account drifts from policy. We harden your cloud across identity, configuration, and workloads, then hold the line as it changes.

Why cloud is different

In the cloud, a single setting can expose everything, and it can change in seconds without anyone noticing. Cloud security is a continuous discipline, because the cloud never stops moving.

We secure your cloud the way it actually runs: we assess the posture across every account, fix the gaps in identity, configuration, and data exposure, then keep it hardened with policy as code and continuous checks. The aim is a cloud that ships secure by default and stays that way as your teams build.

Coverage

Hardened across every layer

Cloud risk spreads across identity, configuration, data, and workloads. We cover all four, because attackers chain them together.

Identity & access

Least privilege across Human and Machine identities, with standing access reviewed and reduced.

Configuration & drift

Continuous posture checks against benchmarks, with drift caught and closed at the source.

Data exposure

Public storage, open services, and unencrypted data found and locked down.

Workload protection

Containers, functions, and hosts secured at build and watched at runtime.

What you get

From snapshot to standing guard

The same estate, two moments. Day 0 is what assessment finds. Day 90 is what guarded looks like, and what stays that way.

Day 90: drift closes in minutes, the one open item has an owner and a date. Guarded does not mean perfect. It means nothing is silently wrong.

Cloud Security is the Guard and Implement motions of VIGILE. We harden the cloud and enforce the controls as code, so the posture you set holds as the environment changes.

Top 10 questions, frequently asked

No. Posture tooling is part of it, but we deliver the outcome: we assess, fix the gaps, and keep the cloud hardened with policy as code and continuous checks. Tools find problems; we close them and stop them coming back.

AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud, with one consistent approach across them. Coverage works across accounts and providers, so a risk that spans a boundary is still seen and handled as one.

Cloud Security hardens the posture, and Cloud Detection and Response watches the cloud as it runs to catch the attacker who finds a gap anyway. Together they cover both the build and the runtime, which is why most clients run them as a pair.

The opposite, when done well. Guardrails in the pipeline catch issues early, where they are cheap to fix, instead of in a late security review. Developers get fast feedback and a clear path, and security stops being the team that says no at the end.

Assessment of posture across accounts and regions, prioritized hardening of the riskiest findings, guardrails as code so fixes stay fixed, and runtime protection where workloads need it.

A first assessment across connected accounts typically lands within weeks. The picture sharpens as more accounts and pipelines connect.

Changes ship in priority order with owners in the loop, rollback paths documented, and high-confidence fixes first. Ambiguous changes are reviewed with your team rather than forced.

Principal Engineers who build cloud platforms, working in your accounts with scoped, time-boxed access. The same people who find the issues write the fixes.

By cloud footprint: accounts, regions, and workload volume. Most clients start with a fixed-scope posture assessment, then move to managed hardening and monitoring.

Assessment runs in Validate, discovery in Identify, hardening and guardrails in Guard, and continuous posture monitoring in Implement, with evidence flowing to Enhance.
