Cloud & Infrastructure Security
Your cloud, configured the way your risk demands.
Deep security assessment of AWS, Azure and Google Cloud environments — identity, network, storage, containers and Kubernetes — with architecture-level recommendations your platform team can implement.
The problems this solves
Sound familiar?
Misconfiguration is the top cloud breach cause
Exposed storage, permissive security groups and over-privileged identities are quiet, common and dangerous.
IAM sprawl nobody fully understands
Roles accumulate permissions over time. Without review, least privilege quietly becomes most privilege.
Kubernetes complexity hides risk
Default configurations, exposed dashboards and weak pod security policies create paths attackers know well.
Cloud changes faster than reviews
Infrastructure-as-code ships daily. Point-in-time reviews must be paired with architecture guidance that lasts.
What the engagement includes
In scope, in detail
- Cloud configuration review across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud
- IAM policy, role and privilege-escalation analysis
- Network security: VPCs, security groups, firewalls and segmentation
- Storage exposure and encryption review
- Kubernetes and container security assessment
- Cloud architecture review with threat modelling
Systems & technologies
Aligned standards
Standards listed describe the frameworks our methodology aligns with — not certifications held by Softous Solutions.
How we deliver
A methodology you can hold us to
01
Environment mapping
We build a picture of accounts, subscriptions, workloads, identities and data flows across your cloud estate.
02
Configuration analysis
Benchmarks (CIS) plus attacker-minded manual review identify misconfigurations and privilege-escalation paths.
03
Attack-path validation
Where authorised, we validate that identified weaknesses chain into real exposure — not theoretical risk.
04
Prioritised hardening plan
Findings arrive with concrete, platform-specific remediation steps and an architecture-level hardening roadmap.
What you receive
- Cloud security posture summary
- Misconfiguration findings with severity and evidence
- IAM privilege-escalation analysis
- CIS Benchmark alignment overview
- Prioritised hardening roadmap
Common questions
FAQs
Which cloud providers do you assess?
AWS, Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud. Multi-cloud and hybrid environments are scoped individually.
Do you need admin access?
No. Read-only access is sufficient for configuration review. Any active validation is agreed separately within authorised boundaries.
Can you review our Kubernetes clusters?
Yes — cluster configuration, RBAC, network policies, pod security, exposed services and registry hygiene are all in scope.
How is this different from a CSPM tool?
Tools flag settings; we interpret them in the context of your architecture, validate real attack paths, and prioritise by actual business impact.
