Cloud security posture and CNAPP
Cloud accounts drift. A storage bucket is opened for a test, a role gets too broad, a workload goes unpatched. Cloud security posture management (CSPM) scans accounts for these gaps, and a cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) adds workload, container and identity risk in one view.
What we do
- Cloud account onboarding and baselines
- Finding prioritization by exposure
- Alert routing to SIEM and tickets
- Benchmark gap reports
- Infrastructure as code fixes
- Multi-cloud coverage review
- Monthly posture review
Our team works with Microsoft Defender for Cloud across Azure and other clouds, with Amazon GuardDuty for threat detection and AWS Security Hub for collecting and prioritizing findings, and with Wiz for agentless scanning across cloud accounts. We tune the findings to what matters, route them to a ticket queue or the SIEM and track them to closure.
This group links to our Cloud and Cybersecurity services. Cloud audit logging and landing-zone controls are covered in the cloud security audit group. These are tools our team has experience with, not partnerships.

Send us a messageWhat is the difference between CSPM and CNAPP?
Cloud security posture management (CSPM) scans cloud accounts for misconfigurations such as an open storage bucket or an overly broad role. A cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) combines that with workload, container and identity risk in one view. A small company with one cloud account often starts with CSPM, and the built-in tools from the cloud provider cover much of it.
Will a scanner change anything in our cloud accounts?
Posture scanners are normally read-only: they read configuration and logs and report findings, and agentless tools do not install software on your workloads. Fixes are a separate step. We make them through reviewed changes, preferably in infrastructure as code, so the fix does not get undone the next time the template is applied.
Why do we get so many findings, and what do we fix first?
A first scan of a long-lived account usually finds hundreds of items, and most are low risk. We rank by exposure: what is reachable from the internet, what holds sensitive data and what has broad permissions. Fix those first, route the rest to a ticket queue and track them to closure. Findings that you accept as a risk are documented, not ignored.
Does one tool cover Azure, AWS and Google Cloud?
Some do and some are strongest in their own cloud. Microsoft Defender for Cloud covers Azure and can connect to other clouds, while GuardDuty and Security Hub are AWS services. A multi-cloud product such as Wiz scans several providers. We review which accounts you have and recommend the smallest set of tools that covers them.
