Cloud Security Posture Review

The Problem

Your cloud is configured — but is it configured securely?

Most organizations migrated to Microsoft 365 for productivity — not security. The default settings are designed to get you working quickly, not to protect you. MFA might be enabled for some accounts but not all. External sharing might be wide open. Admin accounts might not have conditional access policies. Legacy authentication might still be allowed.

These aren't exotic vulnerabilities — they're configuration gaps that exist in the majority of M365 tenants we review. And they're exactly what attackers look for first.

How It Works

Five critical review areas

Ridgepoint examines your cloud environment across five security-critical areas. We start with Microsoft 365 — where most SMBs live — and extend into Azure or AWS if your environment includes those platforms.

• MFA and admin access controls — are all accounts protected, especially admin and service accounts?
• Email security and anti-phishing policies — SPF, DKIM, DMARC, anti-phishing rules, safe attachments
• External sharing and guest access — who can share what with whom outside your organization?
• Device compliance and endpoint management — are devices meeting your security baseline?
• Logging and alert configuration — are you capturing the right events and getting notified?
• Findings report with severity ratings (critical, high, medium, low)
• Prioritized remediation plan with step-by-step guidance
• Executive summary suitable for board or leadership review

Included in every vCISO retainer

Every vCISO retainer includes a Cloud Security Posture Review in the first 30 days — at no additional cost. It's part of our onboarding process because understanding your cloud configuration is essential to managing your security program effectively.

For standalone engagements, we deliver the findings report, remediation plan, and executive summary within two weeks of gaining access to your environment.
