Mastering Cloud Security
Secure by Design, Secure in OperationAcross AWS • Azure • GCP
Practical controls and governance to protect identities, data, workloads, and networks in the cloud.
Governance & Compliance
Align controls with frameworks and keep environments audit‑ready.
- Policy as code (SCPs, Azure Policies, Organization Policies)
- CIS/NIST mappings and evidence collection automation
- Change management and drift detection
- Segregation of duties and break‑glass controls
Posture Management & Automation
Shift from reactive fixes to continuous hardening.
- CSPM/CIEM baselines with ticketing integration
- Auto‑remediation for high‑risk misconfigurations
- Golden images and secure modules for reuse
- KPIs: MTTD/MTTR, control coverage, drift rate
Provider Playbooks
Opinionated checklists tailored to each major cloud.
AWS
- Organizations, SCPs, Control Tower
- IAM Identity Center, GuardDuty, Security Hub
- VPC endpoints, WAF, CloudTrail, Config
Azure
- Landing Zones, Management Groups, Policy
- Entra ID, PIM, Key Vault, Defender for Cloud
- Private Link, WAF, Monitor, Sentinel
GCP
- Folders/Projects, Org Policies
- IAM Conditions, KMS, SCC, Chronicle
- VPC‑SC, Cloud Armor, Audit Logs
Foundations & IAM
Establish secure landing zones and strong identity controls.
- Multi-account landing zones, org policies, guardrails
- Federation, MFA, least privilege, conditional access
- Key management (KMS/CMK) and secrets rotation
- Baseline logging and monitoring enabled by default
Data & Workload Protection
Protect data and compute across VMs, containers, and serverless.
- Encryption, tokenization, and sensitive data discovery
- Container and image scanning, runtime protection
- Serverless permissions boundaries and monitoring
- Backup, immutability, and recovery testing
Network Security
Segment, inspect, and protect traffic across public and private edges.
- VPC/VNet design, private endpoints, service mesh
- WAF, DDOS protection, DNS and TLS hygiene
- Secure remote access and bastion patterns
- Cross‑region routing and policy consistency
Visibility & Response
Detect threats and respond quickly with automation.
- Central logging, CSPM/CIEM, and detections
- SOAR runbooks and automated containment
- Incident response readiness and simulations
- Post‑incident reviews and hardening actions
