Managed Cloud Security
Managed Cloud Security Service is a way of managing the security needs of your cloud infrastructure while offloading responsibilities such as security monitoring, configuration, reporting, and technical support of your inhouse team. It can include configuration of cloud space, deployment of cloud security tools, managing intrusion detection, firewall management, oversight of the company’s virtual private network (VPN), anti-virus configuration and vulnerability testing. Employing managed security services means that internal IT teams have more time to focus on new business developments, while an outside expert team manages all aspects of cloud cybersecurity for your company.

How Our Managed Cloud Security Works
Phase 1: Assessment and Analysis
Our process initiates with a comprehensive assessment of the client’s existing cloud infrastructure. This involves a deep dive into configurations, vulnerabilities, and compliance gaps. We conduct a thorough risk profiling, evaluating factors like data sensitivity and compliance requirements to understand the unique risk landscape. Through a meticulous gap analysis against industry standards, we identify areas for improvement in the client’s cloud security posture.
Phase 2: Strategy and Planning
Following assessment, we craft a customized security strategy aligned with the client’s business objectives and risk profile. This strategy encompasses specific objectives, policies, and procedures aimed at enhancing cloud security. With a detailed security plan in place, we prioritize actions required to fortify the client’s security measures, emphasizing criticality and potential impact on operations.
Phase 3: Implementation and Deployment
Implementation involves deploying and configuring essential security tools, controls, and solutions within the client’s cloud environment. This includes establishing robust authentication, encryption, access controls, and continuous monitoring mechanisms. Additionally, we conduct thorough training sessions for the client’s personnel to ensure they understand and effectively participate in maintaining a secure cloud environment.
Phase 4: Monitoring and Management
We implement continuous monitoring solutions that provide real-time visibility into the cloud environment, enabling swift detection and response to security threats. Furthermore, we develop and rehearse incident response plans to handle security breaches efficiently, with containment, eradication, and recovery procedures in place to mitigate potential damage.
Phase 5: Optimization and Improvement
Our approach doesn’t stop at implementation; we continuously evaluate the effectiveness of security measures through audits, penetration testing, and security reviews. As threats evolve, we adapt security protocols, tools, and strategies accordingly. Open communication and regular reporting keep clients informed about security performance, metrics, and recommendations for ongoing improvements. This iterative cycle ensures a proactive and evolving approach to managing cloud security for our clients.
