Cloud Security & Compliance for AWS and GCP
We help organizations strengthen cloud security posture with practical controls across identity, logging, encryption, governance, and network design — aligned with the needs of HIPAA, SOC 2, PCI, and other security-sensitive environments.
What we help secure
Strong cloud security is not just about enabling tools. We look at how access is controlled, how systems are segmented, how events are logged, how secrets are protected, and how governance is enforced across AWS and GCP environments. The goal is a cloud foundation that is secure, operationally practical, and ready for customer, compliance, and internal scrutiny.
- IAM hardening and least-privilege access design
- Role and permission boundary reviews
- CloudTrail, Config, GuardDuty, Security Hub, and audit visibility improvements
- Encryption at rest and in transit across cloud services
- Secrets management and credential exposure reduction
- WAF, network segmentation, security groups, and attack surface reduction
- Multi-account / project security architecture and governance guardrails
- Compliance-aligned implementation support for HIPAA, SOC 2, and PCI-sensitive workloads
Typical outcomes
- Improve visibility, control, and auditability across cloud environments
- Reduce identity, access, and configuration risk
- Strengthen operational readiness for regulated or security-sensitive workloads
- Build a more defensible cloud foundation without slowing down engineering teams
Who this is for
- Healthcare and HealthTech platforms handling sensitive data
- SaaS companies preparing for SOC 2 or customer security reviews
- Teams with broad IAM access and weak cloud governance
- Organizations that need security improvements without overengineering
A practical cloud security process
Assess IAM, logging, network controls, encryption, secrets handling, and governance gaps.
Highlight the most important access, visibility, and exposure issues to address first.
Harden access, enable auditability, improve segmentation, and reduce exposure across services.
Establish patterns and controls that support operational discipline and compliance readiness.
We help teams apply cloud security best practices in ways that support regulated workloads, customer trust, and audit readiness without unnecessary complexity.
Request a cloud security assessment
We’ll review your AWS or GCP environment and identify where you can improve security, governance, compliance readiness, and operational visibility.
