eSureITy’s cloud security assessments uncover vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and compliance gaps in your Azure and AWS environments—helping you meet regulatory expectations and maintain cyber insurance eligibility.
Why Cloud Security Is a Cyber Insurance Priority
Cloud breaches have become one of the top claim triggers in cyber insurance. Most stem from preventable issues—misconfigured storage buckets, weak access controls, or exposed APIs that attackers exploit to exfiltrate data.
Major providers like Azure and AWS operate under a shared responsibility model: the provider secures the cloud infrastructure, but you’re responsible for securing your data, configurations, and access controls. When that line blurs, insurers take notice.
eSureITy’s Azure and AWS Security Assessments close those gaps—ensuring your environment aligns with global benchmarks, insurer expectations, and regulatory frameworks like HIPAA, PCI DSS, and NIST 800-53.
The Challenge — Cloud Complexity and Hidden Risk
The rapid adoption of multi-cloud environments introduces blind spots:
- Misconfigurations:Insecure storage, open ports, and public-facing assets.
- IAM Weaknesses:Overly permissive roles, inactive accounts, and poor key management.
- API Vulnerabilities:Exposed endpoints enabling unauthorized access.
- Compliance Drift:Untracked policy changes breaking alignment with frameworks like CIS or ISO.
- Cloud Sprawl: Unmanaged assets increasing exposure without visibility.
Even with strong providers, your organization’s configurations determine your security posture—and your insurability.
Our Solution — Azure & AWS Security Aligned to CIS Benchmarks
eSureITy follows the Center for Internet Security (CIS) Benchmark standards to deliver a structured, defensible assessment recognized by both auditors and insurers.
Our Methodology Includes:
- Environment Discovery:
Review of all Azure and AWS resources, configurations, IAM roles, and connected services.
- CIS Benchmark Alignment:
Compare current configurations against CIS-recommended security baselines for each platform.
- Identity & Access Review:
Validate least-privilege implementation, MFA enforcement, and role-based access control.
- Data Security Analysis:
Confirm encryption of data in transit and at rest, secure key management, and backup policies.
- Network & Firewall Audit:
Assess network segmentation, security groups, and exposed services.
- Logging & Monitoring Review:
Ensure that security events, access logs, and alerts are properly configured and retained.
- Compliance Verification:
Map findings to HIPAA, PCI DSS, ISO 27001, and NIST 800-53 controls.
- Actionable Reporting:
Deliver a prioritized remediation roadmap tied to measurable risk reduction and insurer documentation needs.
