Cloud Security Assessment (CSA)

ISGroup has extensive experience in implementing and securing cloud environments.

We cover all security aspects of platforms based on major cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP, Alibaba), as well as private (Private Cloud) or hybrid cloud infrastructures.

Our expertise allows us to effectively assess a cloud infrastructure as it is implemented, addressing complex and general aspects related to architecture security and the containment and mitigation of typical risk scenarios of this paradigm.

Our Cloud Security Assessment (CSA) service is specifically designed for the security of your applications throughout the software lifecycle, from design to delivery.

Over the years spent building secure infrastructures and application architectures based on cloud providers and the most common systems, both commercial and open-source, we have developed a service dedicated to verifying and maintaining the security of cloud environments.

ISGroup's Cloud Security Assessments are delivered by technicians who have served as both Solution Architects and Application Security Specialists.

Description

A secure architecture and infrastructure of cloud applications are essential for data protection.

Security must be implemented from the design and development phase to be effective and then re-verified at regular intervals as the architecture grows, adapts, and matures. This effectiveness is also economical since integrating security into a cloud architecture too late is costly and time-consuming.

Each member of our team has extensive experience in both software engineering and cloud security, and it is precisely thanks to this knowledge that we conduct a quality security assessment specific to the technologies used by the client.

We specialize in evaluating the security of systems based on platforms such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), IBM Cloud, Oracle Cloud, Alibaba Cloud, Yandex Cloud, and also private and hybrid cloud systems like VMWare, Dell EMC, Microsoft Hyper-V, Rackspace, CloudBolt, Divvy Cloud, RedHat, OpenShift, Abiquo, Rack Connect, Scalr, Docker, DigitalOcean, Heroku, Kubernetes, Helm, Prometheus.

Specifications

During the cloud security assessment, ISGroup will conduct a thorough review of the architecture, services, and applications used, identifying individual elements of vulnerability or exposure. A detailed guide will then be provided to the client on how to strengthen resistance to attacks and reduce cloud risks.

ISGroup analyzes the architecture, policies, permissions, and configurations to understand the attack surface and provide specific recommendations on hardening and changes to implement. Our knowledge of security best practices includes but is not limited to the specifics of cloud providers.

Output

The output provided to the client will be a detailed and explanatory report of the conclusions formulated by the team, summarizing the results of the activity.

Specifically, the report is a document divided into 3 thematic areas:

Executive Summary
A brief non-technical summary of the activity carried out and the current security status of the cloud infrastructure. Document intended for Management.

Vulnerability Details
Section dedicated to the Security Manager that delves into the details of the analysis.
It describes in detail the vulnerabilities found in the cloud infrastructure and the impact these can have on the application.

Remediation Plan
Technical section dedicated to System Administrators containing precise instructions on how to resolve the identified issues and vulnerabilities discovered in the cloud system.
