Cybersecurity and Infrastructure

Cloud, Container and Configuration Security

Most cloud incidents are not clever attacks - they are settings left open. This closes them.

How We Work, Step by Step
  1. 1Review configuration
  2. 2Set guardrails
  3. 3Scan before deploy
  4. 4Monitor drift
  5. 5Test restore

What We Do for You

  • Review your cloud accounts against the benchmark and report gaps.
  • Design the landing zone, guardrails and account structure.
  • Add configuration scanning before deployment, not after.
  • Replace long-lived keys with short-lived workload identity.
  • Design backup isolation and test the restore.

How this is bought: Bought as an assessment first, then a project priced from what the assessment finds. Build an estimate for your case.

Our Approaches Explained

Shared responsibility model

Knowing precisely which parts the cloud provider secures and which parts remain yours.

Cloud security posture management (CSPM)

Continuous checking for public storage, over-broad permissions and missing encryption.

Infrastructure as code scanning

Reviewing Terraform or CloudFormation before it is applied, so a misconfiguration never reaches production.

Identity federation and workload identity

Machines authenticate with short-lived credentials instead of long-lived keys.

Key management and encryption

Keys held in a managed KMS or HSM, with rotation and separation of duties.

Container and Kubernetes hardening

Image scanning, non-root runtime, admission control, and network policy between pods.

Landing zone design

Accounts, environments and guardrails structured before workloads arrive, so control does not depend on memory.

Backup isolation

Copies held where an attacker with production access cannot reach or encrypt them.

The Standards We Work To

CIS Cloud Benchmarks (AWS, Azure, GCP)NIST SP 800-190 container securityCloud Security Alliance CCMKubernetes CIS Benchmark

We follow the structure and controls these standards describe. We do not claim to be certified against them - where you need a formal certificate, we prepare the evidence and an accredited body performs the audit.

What You Get

  • Cloud configuration review
  • Landing zone and guardrail design
  • Key management standard
  • Container hardening plan
  • Backup and restore design
Where We Usually Focus
Configurations checked continuously92%
Long-lived keys replaced78%
Restores tested74%

These are the areas clients most often ask us to improve. Your project sets its own targets, measured and agreed with you.
