Cloud Security Assesment Overview

In today’s cloud-first world, securing user identities, endpoints, and data has never been more critical. As organisations expand across public cloud like Azure and AWS, the attack surface grows and so do compliance demands.

CommSec’s Cloud Security Assessment delivers a structured, expert-led review of your cloud environment. We help you identify risks, reduce misconfigurations, and enhance your overall security posture while aligning with recognised standards such as NIS2, ISO 27001, and CIS Benchmarks.

Cloud Security Common Challenges

Many organisations face similar issues when it comes to cloud security:

  • Limited visibility into misconfigurations and access permissions

  • Shadow IT introducing unmanaged risk

  • Complex compliance requirements across multiple frameworks

  • Lack of unified monitoring and incident response visibility

  • Rapid cloud adoption outpacing security controls
