Cloud governance service

Cloud

A CyberASM service offering

Overview

Our cloud and SaaS governance services help organisations manage third-party access, apply multi-factor authentication, review configurations, and support compliance across Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace.

Partner options include Sophos cloud workload protection and HPE Networking SASE and firewall capabilities. Recommendations depend on your cloud architecture and requirements.

Cloud Security

Overview

Cloud security services help protect workloads, data, applications, and access across hybrid and multi-cloud environments.

Depending on your environment and scope, this can include:

• Cloud Threat Detection and Response: Monitoring and response services can provide continuous coverage for in-scope cloud environments.

• Cloud-Native Security: Assess and manage security controls for cloud environments, workloads, and identities through the agreed tooling.

• Server Workload Protection: Extend endpoint detection and response controls to supported on-premises, data-centre, and cloud servers.

• Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA): Apply identity-aware access controls to connect users to approved business applications.

• Firewall Protection: Configure firewall controls for network and cloud environments using supported hardware, virtual, or cloud deployments.

Visibility, Governance, and Compliance

Overview

Monitor multi-cloud environments to identify security vulnerabilities, reduce exposure, and support compliance reviews.

Areas of focus can include:

• Unified Console: Enhance efficiency by overseeing posture across AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes, Infrastructure as Code, and Docker Hub environments within a unified console.

• Insights: Review asset inventories, network visualisations, cloud expenditure, and configuration risks.

• Automated Assessments: Streamline compliance reviews and prepare reports to support audits.

• DevOps Security: Minimise risk while maintaining DevOps agility by leveraging Infrastructure as Code and container image security.

• Risk Prioritisation: Use risk-ranked alerts to help teams focus on the most significant configuration issues.

• Guided Remediation: Use detailed findings and remediation guidance to help improve cloud security practices.

Cloud Workloads and Data

Overview

Protect cloud and data-centre hosts and containers with workload security controls suited to your operating environment.

Capabilities may include:

• Performance: Use lightweight protection for supported Linux and Windows hosts, available through agents or Linux APIs, to help limit operational impact.

• Broad Workload Coverage: Support for cloud and data-centre hosts, containers, Windows, and Linux, subject to the selected solution.

• Linux Support: Detect selected Linux security events in real time without deploying a kernel module.

• Windows Ready: Protect your Windows hosts and remote workers from ransomware, exploits, and zero-day threats.

• Configuration Control: Manage application controls, secure configurations, and monitor changes to important Windows system files.

• XDR: Correlate related events to support threat investigation, prioritisation, and response.

Enforce Least Privilege

Overview

Apply least-privilege controls across supported cloud environments and review identity permissions to reduce unnecessary access.

Capabilities can include:

• Least Privilege: Limit identities to the permissions required for their approved tasks.

• Visibility: Review cloud IAM roles and relationships to identify potentially excessive permissions.

• Access Analytics: Review identity activity and access patterns to help identify potentially compromised or over-privileged accounts.

• Risk Analytics: Correlate relevant signals to help surface high-risk identity activity for investigation.

Cloud SaaS

Overview

Monitor SaaS usage, access, configuration, and permissions to identify security gaps and support alignment with frameworks such as CIS Controls and NIST SP 800-53.

Areas of focus can include:

• Continuous Security Monitoring: Identify and address security gaps in SaaS environments, enhancing overall security posture.

• Compliance Support: Use frameworks such as CIS Controls and NIST SP 800-53 as references for security reviews and audit preparation.

• SaaS App Visibility: Gain visibility into SaaS app usage, data privacy, and access controls for better management and oversight.

• Misconfiguration Review: Identify user and application settings that may create security risks and prioritise remediation.

• SaaS Permissions Audit: Audit SaaS permissions to identify and address potential access control issues.
