AWS Security Review

From $2,500 CAD · scoped to you

This is a security review of your AWS environment, not a bill audit. We go after the things that actually get startups breached: over-permissioned IAM, publicly exposed resources, misconfigured storage, and gaps in logging and detection.

You get a prioritized list of what to fix and why.

Delivered by a researcher with five published CVEs, including a CVSS 9.1 in the Mirai botnet.

What we do

IAM review

over-broad permissions, unused credentials, root and MFA hygiene

Public exposure check across S3, security groups, load balancers, and public IPs
Misconfiguration scan against common AWS hardening baselines

Logging and detection review

CloudTrail, GuardDuty, and monitoring coverage

A prioritized findings report ranked by real-world risk, with concrete fixes

Built for teams that...

  • Startups on AWS that have never had a security-focused review
  • Teams heading into SOC 2 or an enterprise deal that will scrutinize the cloud
  • Engineering teams that grew fast and suspect the AWS setup has drifted

What you walk away with

You get a clear, ranked picture of where your AWS environment is actually exposed and a fix list your engineers can execute, not a 500-page scanner dump. It doubles as strong evidence when a buyer or auditor asks how you secure your cloud.

Frequently asked questions

Is this a cost audit?

No. This is purely a security review. If you want spend optimization, that is a separate engagement listed on our pricing page.

Do you need access to our AWS account?

Typically read-only access or a scoped audit role is enough to review configuration. We scope access to what the review needs and nothing more.

How is this different from a Well-Architected review?

This focuses only on the security pillar in depth. The Well-Architected review covers all six pillars at a higher level, including reliability, cost, performance and sustainability.

Will this help with SOC 2?

Yes. Many findings map directly to SOC 2 controls, and the report is useful evidence that you actively review your cloud security posture.
