Cloud Enablement
Cloud Security Services
Protect identities, workloads and data across every cloud account with secure foundations, continuous posture management and fast detection and response.
Security That Keeps Pace with Your Cloud
Cloud changes how security works. Infrastructure is created through APIs in seconds, identities and permissions replace network perimeters as the main control point, and a single misconfigured storage bucket or over-privileged role can expose sensitive data. Under the shared responsibility model, the provider secures the underlying infrastructure, but configuration, identity, data and application security remain yours. Traditional tools and annual audits cannot keep up with that pace of change.
Hanoi Technology helps you build security into your cloud from the foundation up. We harden identity and access, design secure networks, enable posture and entitlement management, protect workloads and containers, centralize logging and threat detection, and automate compliance checks against benchmarks such as CIS. Security becomes code: reviewed, versioned and applied consistently to every environment, so teams can move quickly without opening new gaps.
The Challenge
The Cloud Security Challenges We Address
Risks that consistently feature in cloud incidents and audit findings.
Misconfigurations at Scale
Public storage, open management ports, disabled logging and unencrypted resources are easy to create and hard to spot manually across many accounts and services.
Excessive Permissions
Identities, both human and machine, accumulate permissions they do not use. Long-lived access keys and broad roles give attackers a path to escalate once inside.
Limited Visibility and Slow Detection
Logs are scattered across accounts and services, and alerts lack context. Suspicious activity goes unnoticed or is buried under noise until damage is done.
Compliance Evidence on Demand
Auditors and customers ask for proof of controls under ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS or GDPR. Gathering evidence manually for each audit takes weeks.
Business Value
What Strong Cloud Security Gives You
Reduced Attack Surface
Hardened configurations, private networking and least-privilege access remove common entry points before attackers find them.
Continuous Visibility
Posture management shows misconfigurations, vulnerabilities and risky permissions across all accounts in one prioritized view.
Faster Detection and Response
Centralized logs, tuned detections and automated playbooks shorten the time from suspicious activity to containment.
Security Without Slowing Delivery
Guardrails and checks in pipelines stop insecure changes early, so developers get fast feedback instead of late rejections.
Audit-Ready Compliance
Controls mapped to frameworks and monitored continuously produce evidence automatically for audits and customer questionnaires.
Protected Data
Classification, encryption, key management and access monitoring keep sensitive data safe wherever it is stored.
Identity Is the New Perimeter
In the cloud, almost every action is an API call made by an identity. Controlling who and what can make which calls, and watching how those permissions are used, is the single most effective security investment most organizations can make.

We rank findings by likelihood and impact, considering internet exposure, data sensitivity and attack paths, and agree on remediation priorities.
Deliverables: Prioritized risk register · Quick-win plan
- 03
Remediate and Harden
We fix critical findings, implement secure baselines as code and introduce preventive guardrails so issues do not reappear.
Deliverables: Hardened environments · Guardrail policies
- 04
Detect and Respond
We set up centralized logging, threat detection and alert routing, and test response playbooks through tabletop exercises.
Deliverables: Detection coverage map · Tested playbooks
- 05
Monitor and Improve
We monitor posture and threats continuously, report on trends and evolve controls as your environment and threat landscape change.
Deliverables: Monthly security report · Control improvement backlog
Use Cases
Cloud Security Scenarios
Situations where our cloud security team helps.
Preparing for SOC 2 or ISO 27001
A SaaS company needs certification to win enterprise customers. Cloud controls are implemented and mapped to the framework, with automated evidence collection.
Securing a Fast-Growing Startup
An engineering-led company has moved fast with broad permissions. Identities are consolidated, access keys removed and guardrails applied without blocking delivery.
Kubernetes Platform Hardening
A container platform runs many services with default settings. Network policies, admission controls, image scanning and runtime monitoring are introduced.
Post-Incident Remediation
After an exposed credential leads to unauthorized access, the environment is investigated, contained and hardened to prevent recurrence.
Multi-Cloud Posture Management
An organization running AWS and Azure needs one view of risk. A posture management platform consolidates findings and ownership across both.
PCI DSS Scope Reduction
A payments business segments its cardholder data environment in the cloud, reducing audit scope and strengthening controls around sensitive data.

Cloud Security FAQ
What is the shared responsibility model?
Cloud providers secure the infrastructure that runs their services: data centers, hardware, networking and the virtualization layer. Customers are responsible for what they build and configure on top: identities and permissions, network settings, operating systems on virtual machines, applications and data protection. The exact split depends on the service type, with more provider responsibility for managed and SaaS services. Most cloud breaches stem from the customer side, which is where we focus.
What are CSPM, CIEM and CNAPP?
Cloud security posture management (CSPM) continuously checks cloud configurations against security best practices and compliance rules. Cloud infrastructure entitlement management (CIEM) analyzes identities and permissions to find excessive or unused access. A cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) combines these with workload, container and code scanning in a single platform. We help you decide whether provider-native tools are sufficient or a third-party platform adds enough value.
How quickly can you assess our cloud security?
An initial assessment of a typical environment takes two to four weeks, depending on the number of accounts, subscriptions and services. Automated scanning gives a broad view within days, while architecture reviews and interviews add context on data sensitivity and business impact. You receive a prioritized list of findings with clear remediation steps, including quick wins that significantly reduce risk in the first weeks.
Will security controls slow down our developers?
Not if they are designed well. We shift security left by giving developers automated checks in their pipelines and code editors, with clear explanations of how to fix issues. Preventive guardrails block only the truly dangerous configurations, while lower-risk issues generate tickets instead of failures. Secure, pre-approved templates make the secure option the easiest one, which usually speeds teams up.
Can you help us meet compliance requirements?
Yes. We map cloud controls to frameworks such as ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 2, PCI DSS, HIPAA and GDPR, implement missing controls and configure continuous monitoring and evidence collection. This shortens audit preparation and provides ongoing assurance between audits. We work alongside your auditors and compliance team; formal certification is issued by accredited auditors, and we prepare you for that process.
Do you offer ongoing security monitoring?
Yes. As a managed service we monitor posture and threat detections, triage alerts, coordinate response with your team, track remediation and report monthly on risk trends. We can integrate with your existing SIEM or security operations center, or operate provider-native tooling for you. Service levels for response times are agreed upfront and reviewed regularly.
