Cloud Security
As organisations migrate workloads to the cloud, the attack surface expands and the shared responsibility model introduces new categories of risk. Cyse provides specialist cloud security services across AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform, helping you design, implement, and validate security controls that protect your data, applications, and infrastructure while enabling the agility and scale the cloud promises.
Multi-Cloud Expertise
Our cloud security specialists hold platform-native certifications and have hands-on experience securing production environments across all three major cloud providers, as well as hybrid and multi-cloud architectures.
Amazon Web Services
IAM policies, VPC architecture, GuardDuty, Security Hub, S3 bucket controls, Lambda security, EKS hardening, and CloudTrail audit configuration.
Microsoft Azure
Entra ID, Conditional Access, NSG and Firewall design, Defender for Cloud, Key Vault, AKS security, Azure Policy, and Sentinel integration.
Google Cloud Platform
IAM and Org Policies, VPC Service Controls, Security Command Center, GKE hardening, Cloud KMS, Chronicle SIEM, and BeyondCorp Zero Trust.
Our Cloud Security Services
We deliver cloud security services across the full lifecycle, from initial architecture design through to ongoing monitoring and incident response. Every engagement is tailored to your platform, workload profile, and regulatory requirements.
Cloud Security Architecture
Design and review of secure cloud architectures including network segmentation, identity federation, encryption strategies, and defence-in-depth controls aligned to your threat model.
Cloud Security Posture Assessment
Comprehensive review of your cloud environment against CIS Benchmarks, cloud-native best practices, and your organisational security policies to identify misconfigurations and control gaps.
Identity & Access Management
Review and hardening of IAM configurations including least-privilege policies, role-based access, service account hygiene, MFA enforcement, and federation trust relationships.
Container & Kubernetes Security
Security assessment of containerised workloads including image scanning, registry hardening, Kubernetes RBAC, pod security standards, network policies, and runtime protection.
DevSecOps & Pipeline Security
Integration of security controls into CI/CD pipelines including SAST, DAST, SCA, infrastructure-as-code scanning, secrets management, and automated compliance gates.
Cloud Penetration Testing
Authorised penetration testing of cloud environments targeting IAM privilege escalation, storage exposure, serverless abuse, metadata service attacks, and cross-account compromise.
Cloud Migration Security
Security advisory embedded within cloud migration programmes, ensuring that workloads are assessed, controls are mapped, and security is designed in from day one rather than bolted on after.
Cloud Monitoring & Detection
Design and implementation of cloud-native logging, monitoring, and alerting using services such as CloudTrail, Azure Monitor, and Security Command Center, integrated into your SIEM.
Cloud Compliance & Governance
Assessment and implementation of cloud governance frameworks, automated compliance tooling, tagging strategies, and policy-as-code to meet ISO 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, and NIS2 requirements.
The Shared Responsibility Model
Cloud providers secure the infrastructure, but securing what you build on top of it is your responsibility. Understanding where the provider's obligations end and yours begin is critical to avoiding dangerous gaps.
- Physical data centre security
- Hardware and hypervisor management
- Network infrastructure
- Platform availability and patching
- Global compliance certifications
- Identity and access management
- Data classification and encryption
- Network and firewall configuration
- Application security and patching
- Logging, monitoring, and response
Our Approach
We follow a structured approach to cloud security that balances rapid value delivery with long-term maturity improvement, adapting to your pace of cloud adoption.
Discover & Baseline
Inventory all cloud accounts, subscriptions, and projects. Assess current configurations against CIS Benchmarks and establish a security baseline with risk-scored findings.
Design & Harden
Develop a target-state architecture and remediation plan. Implement foundational controls across identity, networking, encryption, and logging using infrastructure-as-code where possible.
Validate & Test
Penetration testing and adversary simulation against the hardened environment to confirm that controls are effective and that no exploitable paths remain.
Monitor & Evolve
Continuous posture management through automated scanning, drift detection, and periodic reassessment as your cloud environment grows and new services are adopted.
Frameworks & Standards
Our cloud security engagements are aligned to industry-recognised frameworks and benchmarks, giving you confidence that controls are comprehensive and audit-ready.
Secure Your Cloud with Confidence
Whether you are planning a migration, hardening an existing environment, or need continuous cloud security assurance, our specialists are ready to help.
