Cloud Security & Testing
Cloud Security
Know whether your cloud is actually configured securely, not just assumed to be. Nexeris reviews your AWS, Azure, GCP, Microsoft 365, and Google Workspace environments against established benchmarks and hands you a prioritized plan to close the gaps.
Why This Matters
Cloud moves fast, and configuration drifts faster.
Most cloud incidents and audit findings come down to a handful of misconfigurations: over-permissive access, gaps in logging, unencrypted data, exposed services. A review turns assumptions about your posture into a checked, prioritized list, on whichever platforms you run.
Common reasons teams engage us
You moved to the cloud quickly and are not sure it is configured securely
An auditor or customer wants evidence your cloud meets a recognized benchmark
Your team owns the environment but has no dedicated security review
You inherited a cloud setup through growth or acquisition and do not fully trust it
Services in this solution
Five services across the platforms you actually run.
From your AWS, Azure, and GCP infrastructure to the Microsoft 365 and Workspace tenants your team works in.

How We Work
How a cloud security review works
A repeatable six-step engagement model.
Scope & Platforms
We confirm which environments are in scope, across AWS, Azure, GCP, Microsoft 365, and Workspace, and the benchmark each will be measured against.
Configuration Review
We review your environment against the relevant CIS or vendor baseline, covering identity and access, network, logging, and data protection.
Risk-Ranked Findings
A prioritized findings report ranked by real risk, not raw scanner output, so your team fixes the exposures that matter first.
Remediation Support
We work with your team to close the findings, or hand off a plan they can execute, depending on how much help you want.
Validation
We re-check the environment after remediation to confirm the high-risk findings are actually closed, and produce evidence you can show an auditor.
Recurring Review
Cloud configuration drifts as you ship. We set a review cadence that catches drift before it becomes an incident or an audit finding.
Ideal Fit For
- Fast cloud adopters who are unsure their configuration is sound
- Teams that own a cloud or productivity tenant without dedicated security engineering
- Companies preparing for SOC 2, ISO, or CMMC that need a clean cloud posture
- Organizations that inherited a cloud setup and want an objective read on it
What you walk away with
- A prioritized remediation list ranked by real risk, not raw output
- A cloud or tenant environment configured against recognized benchmarks
- Evidence of your cloud security posture for auditors and customers
- Fewer of the misconfigurations that cause most cloud incidents
Frequently Asked Questions
Things prospects ask before booking a call.
AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud on the infrastructure side, and Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace on the productivity side, each against the relevant CIS or vendor benchmark.
A findings report and a prioritized remediation plan, not raw scanner output.
Yes. Many clients run a mix, so we scope a single engagement across the platforms you actually use.
In most cases the review produces the cloud posture evidence frameworks expect. We scope it to your specific requirement.
No. A review evaluates how your environment is configured. A penetration test actively tries to exploit weaknesses. See Penetration Testing & Vulnerability Management for that.
