Cloud adoption has accelerated rapidly across organizations of every size, moving critical business functions, sensitive data, and core infrastructure into cloud environments. But the speed of that transition often outpaces the security controls put in place to protect it.
Misconfigured cloud environments are one of the leading causes of data breaches today. Overly permissive access controls, publicly exposed storage buckets, inadequate logging, and weak encryption settings can all leave your organization vulnerable to adversaries who specialize in exploiting exactly these kinds of gaps. The complexity of modern cloud platforms means that even experienced teams can introduce misconfigurations without realizing it.
A cloud configuration review identifies these issues systematically before they can be exploited. The sooner configuration weaknesses are identified and remediated, the sooner your organization reduces its exposure to cloud-based threats. Redfox Cybersecurity delivers comprehensive cloud configuration reviews across AWS, Azure, GCP, and Microsoft 365, aligned to industry best practices and the compliance frameworks your business depends on.
A cloud configuration review is a comprehensive evaluation of the security settings, configurations, and practices within your cloud environment. It identifies misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and deviations from cloud security best practices that could expose your organization to potential threats, unauthorized access, or compliance violations.
Our experienced team of security specialists examines the security controls and configurations of your cloud infrastructure across platforms including Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and Microsoft 365. We assess identity and access management, network security, encryption, data protection, logging and monitoring, and compliance adherence, then provide actionable recommendations to strengthen the security of your cloud-based assets.
Cloud configuration reviews identify issues across the following areas:
Assessments are conducted using a combination of manual and automated methodologies aligned to industry best practices and trusted security standards including the CIS Benchmarks.
Our process is thorough, collaborative, and aligned to the latest compliance and regulatory standards your organization must meet.
We work closely with your team to define the scope of the review, considering your specific cloud platforms, deployment models, business objectives, and compliance requirements. This ensures our assessment is precisely aligned to your environment and risk profile.
Our team examines the configuration settings and security controls of your cloud infrastructure, including virtual machines, storage buckets, databases, and networking components. We assess adherence to security best practices, identify misconfigurations, and recommend targeted improvements.
We evaluate the effectiveness of your IAM controls, including user roles, permissions, service accounts, and authentication mechanisms. This assessment verifies that access to your cloud resources is properly managed, that the principle of least privilege is enforced, and that no over-permissive policies are exposing your environment to unnecessary risk.
We review your data protection and encryption mechanisms, including encryption at rest and in transit, key management practices, and data backup and recovery procedures. This ensures your sensitive data remains protected from unauthorized access and meets the requirements of applicable compliance frameworks.
We assess the logging and monitoring capabilities of your cloud environment, including audit logs, event management, alerting configurations, and threat detection controls. We identify gaps or weaknesses in your monitoring practices and recommend improvements to enhance incident detection and response.
You receive a comprehensive report summarizing all findings, including identified misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and prioritized remediation recommendations. Our team is available to guide you through the implementation of security measures and best practices to strengthen your cloud security posture.
We offer cloud security configuration reviews across all major platforms:
