We help you make sense of the rapid evolution in the industry in order to align the right technologies with the specific goals of your organization.

Our team has broad experience working across all cloud delivery models for providers and users of the services alike. We know Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Function-as-a-Service (FaaS) and more. We translate technical concepts and architectures into actionable items for your organization’ security and compliance needs.

For Cloud Service Providers, we:

Consult on the design of compliance programs over frameworks such as SOC, ISO, or PCI; assessing the program’s readiness; and/or perform the examination.
Assist in evaluating and guarding against third-party risks; designing and implementing continuous monitoring activities; and testing the security of cloud offerings.

For Cloud Consumers, we:

Support you for the entire journey by helping design procurement processes that align internal and external requirements to cloud features and capabilities, evaluating whether the implementation will meet your unique risks of operating in the cloud, and assessing how cloud-based workloads and users meet your customers’ requirements.

We have extensive experience with these compliance standards and frameworks:

SSAE 21 – SOC for Service Organizations, SOC for Cybersecurity, Direct-Examinations and Assertion-based Examinations
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standards (PCI DSS)
Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM) and Security, Trust, Assurance, and Risk (STAR 2)
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework (CSF), 800-53, 800-63, and 800-171
Center for Internet Security (CIS) Controls
Cyber Risk Institute (CRI) Profile
ISO 27001 / 27017 / 27018

We can:

Design and review your organization’s cloud strategy and roadmap
Evaluate the security of Personally Identifiable Information (PII) and Personal Health Information (PHI)
Design and readiness for compliance programs and information security management system (ISMS)
Provide attestation, certification, and examination of compliance programs and information security management systems (ISMS)
Design and implement continuous monitoring and cloud inventory monitoring programs
Conduct IT internal audit and reviews
Provide cybersecurity services including maturity assessments, penetration testing, and vulnerability assessments
