Cloud Security Research and Advisory
Most cloud security incidents arise from identity and configuration weaknesses rather than provider failures. We help security and platform teams prioritise controls, evaluate tools and define responsibilities with their cloud providers.
Coverage includes cloud identity and entitlement management, posture management (CSPM), workload protection, the CNAPP market, Kubernetes and container security, SaaS security posture, and the shared responsibility terms in provider contracts.
Questions we help answer
- Where are the most significant gaps in our cloud security posture?
- Do we need a CNAPP platform, or separate posture and workload tools?
- How should machine identities and privileged roles be controlled across multiple clouds?
- How should responsibility for security incidents be defined in our contracts?
Common questions
Is cloud security covered by your cybersecurity practice?
The two practices work together. Cybersecurity and digital risk covers enterprise-wide security strategy; this practice goes deep on the controls, tools and operating model specific to cloud and SaaS estates.
Do you evaluate CNAPP and CSPM vendors?
Yes. We evaluate them on capability confirmed with reference customers and on fit for your clouds, scale and team, not on a single universal ranking.
Do you audit cloud configurations?
Yes, as part of a cyber audit. We review cloud identity, configuration and logging against the benchmark you choose, such as the CIS benchmarks or the provider's own security guidance, and report findings with a remediation plan.
