Managed Cloud Security (MCS)

While 91% of organisations operate a multi-cloud environment, most have limited in-house expertise. This can result in a fragmented view of their security posture and minimal, ongoing monitoring of workloads or the impact of configuration changes. Meeting cloud compliance requirements and governance challenges inevitably takes the focus away from client projects.

Our MCS service provides a single view of all cloud assets and exposures across multiple providers. Combined with our threat intelligence and expertise, we provide the platform and support in the people and processes required to drive ongoing change. All complemented by 24x7 identification and support in resolving critical configuration issues.
