Cloud Compliance Review

A cloud compliance review ensures that your usage of AWS, Azure, or GCP adheres strictly to industry regulations and legal mandates. We translate complex legal and regulatory text into specific, technical cloud configurations and controls that your team can implement. This process bridges the gap between the legal requirements of your business and the technical reality of your cloud environment.

Many regulations dictate that certain types of data must geographically reside within a specific country or region. We audit your cloud deployments to ensure that your data is physically stored and processed in full compliance with these local laws. This prevents legal complications and ensures you are meeting the sovereignty requirements of your customers and regulators.

Auditors require definitive proof of who did what and when to verify that your security controls are being followed. We ensure that immutable audit trails, like AWS CloudTrail or Azure Activity Logs, are enabled, centralized, and protected from unauthorized tampering. These logs are essential for proving compliance and are invaluable for investigating security incidents.

While cloud providers secure the underlying infrastructure, you are responsible for securing the data and configurations you put into the cloud. We clarify exactly where the provider's responsibility ends and yours begins, ensuring you are fulfilling all of your security obligations. Understanding this model is the first step toward building a truly compliant and secure cloud environment.

We review your cloud backup strategies to ensure that data is retained for legally mandated periods and is securely encrypted at all times. We also verify that your backups are geographically redundant and that your recovery processes are regularly tested for effectiveness. Being able to prove that you can recover your data is a core requirement for almost every major compliance framework.
