Cloud First Consulting
Service overview
Security services
Disconnected controls, excess access, and unclear ownership leave critical services exposed even when security tools are in place. Identify the risks that matter most and turn them into a coordinated protection plan across identities, devices, data, cloud workloads, and AI.
Capabilities
- Assess critical-service exposure, existing controls, and gaps in detection and response.
- Govern human and agent access through lifecycle controls, access reviews, and risk-based policies.
- Plan Zero Trust Network Access, secure web gateway controls, and staged replacement of eligible legacy virtual private network access.
- Align device compliance, endpoint protection, and sensitive-data handling with business requirements.
- Prioritize Cloud & AI risks with accountable owners, response procedures, and evidence requirements.
Deliverables
- A risk register linking exposures to business impact, affected services, and accountable owners.
- A control and detection coverage map showing gaps, dependencies, and licensing considerations.
- A phased remediation roadmap with effort estimates, priorities, and acceptance criteria.
- An operating model defining control ownership, escalation, exceptions, and review cadence.
Business value
Direct investment toward material risk rather than disconnected tool changes. Establish baselines for critical-gap closure, access exceptions, and response readiness, then use evidence to decide what to improve next.
Start with a security posture assessment.
Bring your critical services, security inventory, known concerns, and business owners. Agree the assessment boundary and evidence access first; implementation scope and acceptance criteria follow the findings.
