WHERE CLOUD SECURITY BREAKS DOWN
When your Cloud Security posture should be audit-ready, not audit-anxious
Most UK cloud estates fail their first ICO or ISO audit on the same three issues: drift, identity sprawl, and inconsistent baselines between clouds. We fix all three.
Policies drift after go-live
✕
NSGs, security groups, RBAC roles and IAM policies drift from baseline within weeks. Compliance gaps appear and nobody notices until an audit.
✓
CSPM monitoring against CIS, NIST 800-53 and Microsoft Cloud Security Benchmark, with drift remediated in <15 minutes.
Over-privileged identities multiply
✕
Service accounts with full admin, dormant users with active credentials, and cross-account IAM trust paths nobody documents. One compromise becomes a breach.
✓
CIEM continuously least-privileges identities. Conditional Access on every admin path. Dormant credentials auto-expired.
Workload threats stay hidden
✕
Workload-level threats (cryptomining, lateral movement, exfiltration) hide in cloud telemetry that the platform tools alone do not correlate end-to-end across cloud services.
✓
CWPP runtime protection plus 24/7 UK SOC correlation across Defender for Cloud, GuardDuty and Security Command Center.

Cloud Security FAQ
What's included in your Cloud Security service?
CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management) for drift detection, CIEM (Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management) for least-privilege identity, CWPP (Cloud Workload Protection Platform) for runtime defence, and 24/7 UK SOC for response. We cover AWS, Azure and GCP under one fixed monthly fee. Read more about our broader Cyber Security Services.
How quickly can you detect and respond to a cloud incident?
Critical cloud incidents (active exploitation, exfiltration, identity compromise) are triaged in <5 minutes and contained in <15 minutes by our UK SOC analysts. Detection rules align with the MITRE ATT&CK Cloud matrix and NCSC Cloud Security guidance. See our UK cloud security guide for the response playbook.
Are you ISO 27001 + Cyber Essentials Plus certified?
Yes. Transputec holds ISO 27001 since 2018 and Cyber Essentials Plus, the gold standard for UK security accreditations from the UK government. We are also a Microsoft Solutions Partner with Security designations and an AWS Advanced Tier Services Partner.
How does CSPM differ from CWPP?
CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management) watches the cloud control plane: misconfigurations, policy drift, IAM sprawl, network rule gaps. CWPP (Cloud Workload Protection Platform) watches the actual running workloads: container runtime behaviour, VM exploit attempts, serverless function abuse. Both layers are required; many UK cloud breaches happen because organisations have one but not the other. We deliver both as standard.
What about data residency and UK sovereignty?
SOC data, telemetry storage, analyst location and incident-response workflows all stay within the UK. Detection telemetry from your AWS / Azure / GCP estate is ingested into a UK-region SIEM. UK GDPR, ICO, FCA and NHS DSPT compliance evidence is maintained throughout, with full data-residency documentation in the handover pack.
What is CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management)?
CSPM (Cloud Security Posture Management) is a category of tooling that continuously inspects cloud configurations (compute, storage, network, identity, IaC templates) against security and compliance baselines, then alerts or auto-remediates drift. Examples include Microsoft Defender for Cloud, AWS Security Hub, Wiz, Prisma Cloud, and Lacework. CSPM catches the misconfigurations that cause most cloud breaches (open S3 buckets, over-permissive IAM, exposed databases) before attackers do. Our cloud security service operates CSPM 24/7 across multi-cloud estates. See NCSC Cloud guidance for the wider baseline.
