Cloud Security Posture
Assessment
Get a complete picture of your cloud security posture. We identify misconfigurations, prioritize risks, and give you a clear remediation roadmap.
How the Assessment Works
From kickoff to deliverable in under two weeks. Here's our proven process.
Small Cloud Mistakes Create Real Security Risk
Cloud environments change fast. A single misconfiguration may create exposure across your entire infrastructure.
Public storage exposure
Sensitive files, backups, logs, or secrets become internet-accessible.
Over-permissive cloud access
One compromised identity gets access far beyond its real purpose.
Open network access
Databases, admin panels, APIs become publicly reachable.
Forgotten access keys
Old keys stay active without ownership, rotation, or monitoring.
Missing audit logs
Your team loses visibility into access, changes, and suspicious activity.
Exposed secrets
API keys, tokens, or connection strings stored in code, logs, or cloud resources.
What's Included?
Every cloud security assessment includes a comprehensive deliverable package designed to give you actionable insights and clear next steps.

Access can be limited to selected accounts, subscriptions, projects, or environments.
Security-first handling
Findings are handled as sensitive security information and shared only through agreed channels.
Safe, Read-Only Cloud Assessment
DefenScope reviews your cloud configuration using scoped, read-only access. We do not make infrastructure changes during the assessment. The goal is to identify risky settings, validate real exposure, and provide a clear remediation plan without disrupting your environment.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. We usually need scoped, read-only access to review cloud configuration, IAM permissions, storage, network exposure, logging, and security settings. We do not make production changes during the assessment.
DefenScope supports AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform. We can assess a single cloud environment or review multiple providers if your infrastructure is spread across different platforms.
The assessment includes cloud resource inventory, misconfiguration review, IAM and access risk analysis, public exposure checks, logging and monitoring gaps, data protection review, and a prioritized remediation plan.
A typical assessment takes under two weeks, depending on the size and complexity of your cloud environment. Smaller environments may be reviewed faster, while multi-account or multi-cloud setups may require more time.
No. Automated scanning is only part of the process. DefenScope validates findings, removes noise, explains business impact, and prepares a remediation backlog your engineering team can actually use.
Yes. DefenScope can help implement the most important fixes, improve cloud security controls, prepare audit evidence, and support your team through remediation.
