Cloud Security

Cloud technologies have transformed the way we operate, offering flexibility, speed, and scalability. However, they also introduce new security challenges. At [Your Organisation Name], cloud security is fundamental to our strategy. We adopt a comprehensive approach, combining advanced tools and processes to protect applications, data, and users across all cloud environments.

Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP)

Securing cloud-native applications requires visibility and control from development to runtime. Our Cloud-Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) provides an integrated approach to secure workloads, containers, and serverless functions across multi-cloud environments.

CNAPP allows us to:

  • Continuously scan for misconfigurations and vulnerabilities

  • Enforce compliance standards automatically

  • Detect threats in real-time

By integrating security early into the DevOps lifecycle (shift-left), CNAPP enables our teams to remediate risks before they reach production. All findings are recorded in a centralised cloud risk register, where they are categorised, prioritised and assigned to owners for resolution.

SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM)

SaaS applications play a vital role in modern businesses, but they can expose sensitive data if not properly configured. Our SaaS Security Posture Management (SSPM) solutions continuously monitor our SaaS ecosystem to ensure best practices are maintained.

With SSPM, we:

  • Automatically assess configurations and permissions

  • Identify risky third-party integrations

  • Enforce security policies across all apps

Policy requirements include:

  • All SaaS apps must be registered and assessed before use

  • Admin privileges must be regularly reviewed

  • Third-party apps require security approval

Issues and remediation actions are tracked in SaaS Security Review Forms, ensuring accountability and regular audit readiness.

Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB)

To protect sensitive information and enforce policies as users interact with cloud apps, we leverage our Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB). Acting as a control point between users and cloud services, CASB provides visibility, data security and threat protection.

CASB capabilities include:

  • Monitoring user activity for risky behaviours

  • Enforcing data loss prevention (DLP) policies

  • Blocking unauthorised access attempts

Through CASB, we align our security controls with usage patterns, enabling safe cloud adoption without compromising on governance. Alerts and incidents are recorded in our Cloud Security Incident Register, triggering workflows for investigation and resolution.

Integrated Cloud Security Oversight

All cloud-related findings and actions are centralised in our cloud governance portal, providing real-time visibility and audit trails. Process flows supported by structured forms include:

  • Cloud risk assessments

  • SaaS security reviews

  • Incident investigation and resolution records

By integrating CNAPP, SSPM and CASB into our cloud strategy, we ensure holistic protection from code to consumption. This layered approach safeguards our digital assets and enables us to embrace the cloud with confidence.
