Vulnerability Identification
Detect security vulnerabilities and misconfigurations within cloud environments.
Compliance Verification
Ensure that cloud services adhere to relevant security standards and regulations, such as GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS, depending on the organization's requirements.
Risk Assessment
Evaluate the potential impact of identified vulnerabilities and misconfigurations to prioritize remediation efforts.
Security Best Practices Implementation
Provide recommendations for adopting cloud security best practices and enhancing the overall security posture.
Methodologies
The methodology for Cloud Security Assessments is aligned with industry best practices and standards and includes:
- Configuration Review:Assess cloud service configurations against security best practices and compliance requirements.
- Identity and Access Management (IAM) Review: Evaluate policies and practices related to user access, permissions, and authentication mechanisms.
- Data Protection Assessment: Analyse data encryption, storage, and transfer mechanisms to ensure the protection of sensitive data.
- Network Security Analysis:Review network configurations, including firewalls, security groups, and virtual private networks (VPNs), for potential vulnerabilities.
- Threat Modelling: Perform threat modelling to identify potential security threats and vulnerabilities based on the cloud architecture and services used.
Testing Scope
The testing scope of Cloud Security Assessments includes but is not limited to:
Cloud Service Provider (CSP) Configuration
Evaluation of security settings and configurations of services provided by CSPs such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform.
Application Security in the Cloud:
Assessment of the security of applications hosted in the cloud, including their deployment and interaction with cloud resources.
Compliance and Governance:
Review of compliance with regulatory requirements and governance policies related to cloud usage.
Incident Response and Monitoring:
Evaluation of the capability to detect, respond to, and recover from security incidents within the cloud environment.
