What's inside this engagement
Phase by phase.
How a cloud & identity assessment engagement runs, what happens in each phase and what you see. Exact scope, tier and timeline are fixed in your proposal and SOW.
01Scoping & read-only access
Accounts, subscriptions and tenants in scope, with read-only audit roles set up.
You see · Read-only access for the assessment.
02Configuration & identity review
IAM, network exposure, logging, encryption and workload configuration against CIS benchmarks and provider best practice.
You see · Nothing further.
03Attack-path analysis
Misconfigurations chained into realistic paths to sensitive data or admin control.
You see · The paths that matter, not just a list.
04Reporting & remediation plan
Prioritized findings with the exact configuration change, plus quick wins.
You see · A fix plan your platform team can run.
Commercials
From first call to final report.
- 01
Scoping call
A practitioner, not a salesperson, walks through targets, constraints and what a good outcome looks like for you.
- 02
Proposal & rules of engagement
A fixed-scope proposal with tier, price and deliverables. Rules of engagement, contacts and out-of-bounds systems are agreed in writing.
- 03
Sign, then start
MSA and SOW are signed electronically and the deposit is paid. Only then does testing begin.
- 04
Execution
Testing runs to the agreed plan. Critical findings are escalated as they are found; you don't wait for the report.
- 05
Report & debrief
An executive summary plus technical findings with evidence, reproduction steps and fixes, walked through with your team.
- 06
Retest
Where the tier includes it, we verify your fixes and reissue the report, so auditors and customers see the issues closed.
Timelines are set per engagement in the SOW.

Non-Human & Machine Identity Security
Assess and govern non-human identities — secrets, API keys, service accounts, workload identities, and AI agent identities — covering issuance, rotation, least-privilege, and lifecycle.
CISO Comprehensive Security Assessment
Holistic evaluation of your organization's entire security program across all critical domains. This efficient, structured assessment provides CISOs and security leaders with a complete diagnostic of security capabilities, maturity gaps, and prioritized improvement opportunities. Our comprehensive approach delivers actionable insights across governance, technical controls, and operational security to inform strategic decision-making and resource allocation.
Phase 0 — Enterprise AI Risk Assessment
The six pillars of the AI security program are not sold off a shelf — they are built into your ecosystem, and that requires knowing the ecosystem first. Phase 0 is a scoped, fixed-fee assessment that maps your environment end to end: every AI system in use (sanctioned and shadow), the DevSecOps reality, the data and identity stack, the SIEM / EDR / tooling landscape, and where testing should start. It defines how each pillar gets built for you (BYOK and open-source first, commercial upgrades where they earn their place), designs the integration seams into what you already run, and plans the deployment topology for distributed sites. The output is the current-state map, the future-state design and a sequenced build plan — and only then does the program get a number. CISO Marketplace members get the Phase 0 fee credited toward the program if they proceed.
