Cloud Risk Assessment

Cloud Risk
Assessment

Assess the security of your cloud and accelerate your journey

Security can be overlooked or viewed as a secondary priority in an organization’s cloud journey. It’s expensive, complicated and messy. Implemented correctly, however, security can become a differentiator for the organization.

A strong security program and controls are key components for protecting customer information, supporting business growth, maintaining operational stability and ensuring that compliance requirements are met. The Onix Cloud Risk Assessment is the first step toward understanding the organization’s point-in-time security state in order to determine the best path forward.

The Cloud Risk Assessment is a deep dive into cloud risks and controls. This is a traditional project with resources assigned to analyze the environment. The timeline for the Cloud Risk Assessment (from inventorying the cloud environment to project completion) is a minimum of 3 weeks.
