✓WAF rule configuration for OWASP Top 10 protection and rate limiting
✓Secrets Manager and Parameter Store for secure credentials management
✓KMS encryption at rest for all data stores with customer-managed keys
✓VPC Flow Logs, CloudTrail, and centralised SIEM integration
Key Benefits

Why It Matters

The measurable outcomes our clients achieve with Cloud Security & Compliance.

Proactive Threat Detection

GuardDuty and Security Hub surface threats in real time — incidents detected in minutes, not months after the fact.

Audit-Ready Evidence

Structured, centralised security findings and CloudTrail logs satisfy NCA ECC, PDPL, and SOC 2 audit requirements.

Defence in Depth

Multiple security layers — WAF, network ACLs, security groups, encryption, and IAM — contain breaches at every tier.

Automated Remediation

EventBridge rules and Lambda functions automatically remediate common misconfigurations before they become incidents.

Delivery Lifecycle

How We Deliver

A structured, transparent process from kick-off to launch and beyond.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Cloud Security & Compliance.

Security Hub aggregates security findings from GuardDuty, Inspector, Macie, IAM Access Analyzer, and partner tools into a single console. It automatically runs CIS Benchmark and AWS Foundational Security Best Practices checks against your resources and produces a security score. We configure finding routing to your team via Slack or PagerDuty.

NCA ECC Section 4 (Third-Party and Cloud Cybersecurity) requires: encryption of data at rest and in transit, access controls with least privilege, activity logging and monitoring, incident response capability, and vendor security assessments. We implement all these controls and produce documented evidence packages for the NCA assessment.

We never store credentials in code, environment files, or EC2 user data. All secrets are stored in AWS Secrets Manager with automatic rotation enabled. Applications access secrets via IAM roles (no static credentials). For CI/CD pipelines, secrets are fetched at runtime via OIDC-based assume-role — no long-lived access keys.

All public-facing infrastructure is protected by AWS Shield Standard (always-on DDoS protection at no additional cost). For critical workloads, we recommend AWS Shield Advanced with dedicated DDoS response team access. WAF rules filter malicious traffic before it reaches your application — we configure rules for OWASP Top 10 and rate limiting.

We configure AWS Config rules to detect and alert on drift from security baselines, use Security Hub continuous compliance checks, and automate remediation for common misconfigurations (e.g. publicly exposed S3 buckets). Monthly security reports show your compliance posture over time and highlight any new findings.
