Security Engineering Practices

Beyond individual services, we bring operational practices that ensure security is embedded in every layer of your cloud infrastructure.

Security as Code

All security controls (IAM policies, security groups, WAF rules, Config rules) defined in Terraform or CloudFormation. Version controlled, peer reviewed, and automatically deployed.

Security CI/CD

Vulnerability scanning, image inspection, and compliance checks integrated into every deployment pipeline. Only secure workloads reach production.

Centralised Security Management

Multi-account security architecture with centralised logging, identity management, and security findings aggregation. Single pane of glass across your entire cloud estate.

Automated Remediation

Lambda-based auto-remediation for common security findings. Non-compliant resources are corrected automatically or flagged for human review based on severity.

Inventory & Hardening

Continuous resource inventory, configuration assessment, change tracking, and CIS benchmark hardening. Drift from approved baselines triggers immediate alerts.

Templated Security Infrastructure

Standardized, repeatable security architectures deployed via IaC. New accounts and workloads inherit security controls from day one through landing zone templates and service control policies.

Frequently Asked Questions

A cloud security consultant assesses your cloud environment against industry benchmarks, designs security architecture, implements controls (IAM, encryption, network policies, detection services), and helps you achieve and maintain compliance with standards like ISO 27001, SOC 2, or Cyber Essentials Plus. At Devopsity, we also operate ongoing security as part of managed service retainers. See our fintech security modernisation case study for a real example of Security Hub, GuardDuty, and compliance readiness delivery.

Our primary depth is in AWS, where we hold Advanced Tier Partner status and multiple Security Specialty certifications. We also deliver security work on Azure and GCP. Compliance frameworks like ISO 27001, SOC 2, and NIS2 apply across all providers, so our methodology transfers regardless of platform.

A focused security posture assessment typically takes 1-2 weeks depending on the size of your environment. This covers IAM review, network architecture, encryption posture, logging and detection gaps, and compliance alignment. We deliver a prioritised findings report with a remediation roadmap.

Cloud security is the technical practice of protecting your infrastructure, data, and workloads. Compliance is the outcome of demonstrating that your security controls meet a specific standard (ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, etc.). Good security makes compliance achievable. We treat compliance as a byproduct of well-engineered security, not a checkbox exercise.

Yes. We help design and implement the technical controls required for ISO 27001, build the ISMS documentation, automate evidence collection, and prepare your team for the certification audit. We work alongside your compliance team or can recommend auditors if needed.

We work with the full range of AWS-native security services including Security Hub, GuardDuty, Inspector, CloudTrail, Config, IAM Identity Center, KMS, Secrets Manager, WAF, Shield, Network Firewall, Macie, Control Tower, and Audit Manager. The specific combination depends on your requirements and architecture.

Yes. NIS2 requires risk management measures, incident reporting capabilities, supply chain security, and governance structures. We help implement the technical controls (monitoring, access management, encryption, vulnerability management) and build the operational processes needed to demonstrate compliance.

Devopsity offers cloud security consulting in flexible engagement models. A focused security assessment starts from a 2-week sprint. Ongoing security operations are available as monthly retainers. Contact us for a quote scoped to your environment and requirements.
