Cloud Security Hardening · Connecticut

Your cloud is misconfigured.
We find it before attackers do.

Most breaches don't start with a zero-day — they start with a setting that was left open. We harden Microsoft 365, AWS, and Google Workspace so your firm isn't the one that learns the hard way.

M365 & Entra ID AWS IAM & GuardDuty Google Workspace Post-Incident Hardening Available
3 Cloud Platforms Covered
$7M+ Wire Fraud Prevented via Hardened Tenant
100% Clients Receive Written Findings Report
Same Day Post-Incident Hardening Response

Three platforms. One team.

Wherever your firm runs — Microsoft, Amazon, or Google — we assess the configuration, find the gaps, and fix them before they become incidents.

M365 Security Hardening

A complete configuration review of your Microsoft 365 tenant, Entra ID identity stack, Exchange Online mail flow, and Microsoft Defender posture. We find what attackers look for first — and fix it.

Entra ID Review Conditional Access MFA Enforcement Exchange Security Defender Config Privileged Roles Legacy Auth Disable Inbox Rule Audit
Common Findings We Remediate
MFA gaps across admin and standard accounts
Overprivileged Global Admin roles left active
Legacy authentication protocols still enabled
Conditional Access policies missing or misconfigured
Defender for Office 365 not fully deployed
Start M365 Hardening →

AWS Security Hardening

IAM policy review, S3 bucket exposure assessment, CloudTrail and GuardDuty configuration, and misconfiguration remediation across your AWS environment. We close the gaps attackers probe for.

IAM Policy Review S3 Exposure Audit CloudTrail Config GuardDuty Setup Security Hub Least Privilege Root Account Lockdown VPC Security Groups
Common Findings We Remediate
Publicly accessible S3 buckets with sensitive data
Root account with no MFA or active access keys
Overly permissive IAM policies (wildcards, *:*)
CloudTrail logging disabled or incomplete
GuardDuty and Security Hub not enabled
Start AWS Hardening →

Google Workspace Hardening

Assessment and remediation of your Google Workspace admin console, Gmail security controls, OAuth third-party app access, and identity controls across your organization.

Admin Console Audit Gmail Security OAuth App Review 2-Step Enforcement Drive DLP Controls Alert Center Config Sharing Policy Review Super Admin Controls
Common Findings We Remediate
2-Step Verification not enforced org-wide
Third-party OAuth apps with excessive permissions
External sharing policies too permissive on Drive
Alert Center not configured for key threat signals
Super Admin accounts without hardware key enforcement

Running more than one platform? We cover all three.

Most firms run M365 alongside AWS or GWS. We can scope a combined engagement.

How a hardening engagement works.

Structured. Transparent. No vague deliverables — you get a written report and a remediated environment.

01

Scoping Call

30-minute call to understand your environment, platform footprint, and any recent incidents or compliance requirements. No forms. No sales cycle.

02

Configuration Review

We go through your tenant, IAM, or admin console systematically — checking every control against current security baselines and known attacker techniques.

03

Findings Report

Written report with every finding ranked by risk, plain-language explanation of what's wrong and why it matters, and specific remediation steps.

04

Remediation

We implement the fixes directly — or work alongside your IT team if you prefer. Configurations are validated and documented before we close the engagement.

Misconfigurations are how most breaches start.

You don't need a zero-day to get compromised. Default settings and missed controls are the real attack surface.

📧

Business Email Compromise

BEC attacks exploit weak MFA enforcement, legacy auth protocols, and misconfigured inbox rules. A single unprotected admin account is all it takes to intercept a wire transfer.

🪣

Data Exposure

Overly permissive S3 buckets, unrestricted Drive sharing, and OAuth apps with broad access quietly expose client data — often for months before anyone notices.

🔑

Credential Attacks

Password spraying and phishing succeed because conditional access is missing or misconfigured. Proper hardening blocks these attempts before they become breaches.

📋

Compliance Risk

Law firms, CPAs, and insurance firms face increasing regulatory pressure around cloud security. A hardening engagement gives you documented controls and evidence of due diligence.

Ransomware Entry Points

Ransomware groups increasingly target cloud identity to move laterally and deploy payloads. Locking down privileged access and enforcing least privilege dramatically shrinks your exposure.

👁️

No Visibility

Logging disabled, alerts unconfigured, GuardDuty not enabled — when something happens you have nothing to investigate with. Hardening includes turning the lights on.

Built for professional services firms.

High-value targets with lean IT teams. We understand the environment — and the stakes.

⚖️

Law Firms

Client funds, wire transfers, privileged communications. Law firms are high-value BEC targets. M365 hardening and inbox rule audits are a critical first line of defense. We've responded to $7M+ wire fraud attempts traced back to weak M365 configurations.

📊

Accounting & CPA Firms

Tax data, client financials, IRS credentials. CPA firms run sensitive data through cloud platforms that are rarely hardened. A single compromised account during tax season can be catastrophic.

🏢

Insurance Companies

PII, claims data, and financial records make insurance firms prime ransomware and BEC targets. Cloud misconfigurations create the entry points attackers rely on.

🏠

Real Estate Offices

Escrow wire fraud is a billion-dollar problem driven almost entirely by email compromise. Hardening M365 and enforcing strict email security policies directly addresses the most common attack vector.
