Cloud Security Assessment

Cogent Infotech’s Cloud Security Assessment identifies risks across your cloud infrastructure, configurations, identities, workloads, and data, helping you close security gaps, prioritize vulnerabilities, and build a more resilient cloud environment.

Common Challenges

Misconfigured Cloud Environments

Incorrect permissions, exposed services, insecure settings, and unnecessary access all create openings attackers are quick to find.

Expanding Cloud Attack Surface

As organizations adopt more cloud services, workloads, APIs, containers, and third-party integrations, keeping security consistent gets harder.

Identity & Access Risks

Excessive privileges, unused accounts, weak authentication, and poorly managed roles can hand attackers more access than they should ever have.

Limited Cloud Visibility

Security teams often struggle to maintain a complete view of assets, configurations, data exposure, and controls across sprawling cloud environments.

We assess your cloud environment from both a configuration and risk perspective, evaluating the controls protecting your infrastructure, workloads, identities, applications, and data. Our assessment identifies misconfigurations, exposed resources, excessive permissions, security gaps, and governance weaknesses while evaluating the effectiveness of your identity, access, network, data, workload, and monitoring controls. Findings are translated into a prioritized roadmap with practical recommendations to strengthen cloud security, improve governance, reduce exposure, and build greater resilience.

What's Included

• Cloud Configuration Review - Assess cloud services and configurations for misconfigurations, unnecessary exposure, and weak controls.
• Identity & Access Management Review - Evaluate roles, permissions, privileged access, authentication, and least-privilege practices.
• Network Security Assessment - Review cloud networks, security groups, firewalls, segmentation, and exposed endpoints.
• Data Security & Protection Review - Assess how sensitive data is stored, accessed, encrypted, and protected across cloud environments.
• Workload & Application Security Review - Evaluate the security of cloud-hosted applications, virtual machines, containers, and workloads.
• Logging, Monitoring & Detection Review - Assess the visibility, logging, alerting, and monitoring needed to detect suspicious activity.

What You Receive

• Executive-level cloud security assessment summary
• Detailed cloud security findings
• Configuration and control gap analysis
• Identity and access risk assessment
• Cloud exposure and misconfiguration findings
• Risk-prioritized recommendations
• Cloud security improvement roadmap
• Actionable remediation guidance

Outcomes

Greater Cloud Visibility

Understand your cloud assets, configurations, access paths, workloads, and security controls with clarity, and see where exposure exists instead of assuming it away.

Reduced Misconfiguration Risk

Catch configuration weaknesses before they become entry points. Tighten security settings, cut unnecessary exposure, and build more consistent cloud security practices.

Stronger Identity & Access Controls

Lower the risk tied to excessive permissions and compromised credentials. Improve privilege management and align access with least-privilege principles.

Improved Cloud Resilience

Build a cloud environment that's better equipped to prevent, detect, and respond to threats, and a stronger foundation for secure growth and ongoing transformation.

Who This Is For

Organizations that:

• Are migrating workloads or infrastructure to the cloud
• Operate across AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, or hybrid environments
• Have experienced rapid cloud adoption or infrastructure expansion
• Need to identify cloud misconfigurations and security gaps
• Want to strengthen IAM, network, workload, or data security
• Are preparing for security audits or compliance assessments
• Need an independent view of their cloud security posture
• Want a stronger foundation for secure cloud transformation

Secure Your Cloud Before Risk Scales With It

Cloud security shouldn't be an afterthought. Understand your current exposure, uncover configuration and control gaps, and build a stronger security foundation for everything you run in the cloud.
