Security Assessment

Secure Configuration Review

To assess the security efficacy of the IT environment, a secure configuration review examines and verifies in detail the configuration settings of systems, network devices, and applications that make up the IT infrastructure.

Typically, the required secure configuration settings may not be applied or may be overlooked while implementing, maintaining, or upgrading computer systems, networks, or network security devices. Therefore, it's essential to regularly assess the IT environment's secure setup in order to maintain organization-wide security.

Cloud Security Assessment

Cloud Security Assessments are focused around identifying vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, control gaps in the cloud environment, provide recommendations and help to improve the cloud security posture. Our Technical Assessments for Cloud Security include:
• Vulnerability Assessment and Penetration Testing
• Cloud Configuration Review
• Security Architecture Review

Cloud Configuration Review

The fast rise of cloud computing in recent years has altered worldwide commercial activity by delivering efficient business-supporting technology, but it has also introduced various cloud security concerns and risks. The expanding use of the public cloud, which involves massive amounts of data, is creating new cloud security challenges and vulnerabilities.

Cloud Configuration Review help to identify risks specific to the cloud infrastructure and corresponding applications and processes. It helps organizations assess the effectiveness of controls implemented and remediations required. Such assessments focus on key security elements such as data segmentation, access and authentication, availability, regulatory practices and compliance.

Why is Cloud Configuration review important?

Identifying all the components in the cloud environment from a security perspective and mapping

Review of all user/group roles and privileges
Document all the Identify and Access management configurations with user management capabilities
Review the security configurations of all the implemented services
Review logging configurations, incident response capabilities, backup, and disaster recovery implementations of all the components
Review the secure cloud architecture and strategy for security visibility, management, and compliance needs, and to protect the assets from known and unknown threats

Benefits of Cloud Configuration Review

Cloud Configuration Reviews give you an idea as to how effective the deployed cloud application is at using a cloud provider’s controls to ensure security.
Assures the organization that the infrastructure has been properly configured to follow the best practices, compliance, and regulatory standards.
Some of the utilized standards are:

CSA STAR
ISO/IEC 27017:2015
ISO/IEC 27018:2019

Cloud Security Architecture Review

Cloud Security Architecture helps the businesses to review and secure the cloud workloads across IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, FaaS cloud offering. Cloud security architecture helps to review the business, implementation and configuration threats that could arise from the implemented cloud services and helps to mitigate the identified threats and helps in strengthening the security. It helps to reduce the attack surface and exposure of the threats at every implemented layer and cloud component. It enables the organizations to implement security monitoring with standardized and centralized logging, automated alerting and notifications, incident response and review capabilities.
