Cloud Security Architect
Cloud environments get insecure gradually — an overly permissive IAM role here, an open storage bucket there — until the blast radius of a single compromised credential is the entire company. This service designs zero-trust, cloud-native security architecture for AWS, Azure, or GCP environments: least-privilege IAM, network segmentation, workload isolation, and logging that actually gets reviewed. It's for teams that have grown their cloud footprint faster than their security posture and need someone to map the actual attack surface, not just run a checklist against a shared-responsibility model. The outcome is a cloud environment where a single misconfiguration doesn't compromise everything downstream.
How We’d Approach This
A clear, staged plan — not a black box
- 1
Diagnose the current cloud environment for IAM sprawl, exposed services, and network segmentation gaps.
- 2
Pilot the zero-trust redesign on one account or VPC to validate least-privilege policies don't break production workflows.
- 3
Review the hardened architecture and rollout sequence with infrastructure teams before touching production accounts.
- 4
Roll out the segmented, least-privilege architecture across remaining accounts with monitoring for policy drift.
