Zero Trust Rapid Roadmap

In recent years, corporate leaders have come under unprecedented pressure to uplift security controls. No longer is security considered to be the responsibility of just a few industries or just a few individuals within an organisation – if data is to be protected, appropriate controls are a priority.

Businesses and governments are feeling immense pressure to ensure Security Controls across workloads and cloud environments are appropriate. Focus and guidance has been given in specific context, such as PCI-DSS for card scheme participants, APRA CPG-234 for regulated banking entities and the Federal Government’s PSPF and Essential 8. However organisations are faced with blind spots in existing capability, and are seeking to quantify their exposure in areas outside of compliance and industry guidance, such as API Security & workload to workload connectivity. By undertaking a rapid review of existing capabilities, solutions and processes, organisations are far better equipped to understand their immediate risk profile and translate this into action plans to work to minimise any risk associated with their cloud workloads and ecosystem.

Versent has a history of working with organizations to help uplift their security controls and capabilities within and across cloud environments. Our approach is to utilise our expertise in implementing standards based, efficient and automated solutions.

Our Zero Trust Rapid Roadmap (ZTRR) offer is a strategic 5-day assessment that helps our customers identify key control gaps and prioritises further deep dive focus areas that are needed to manage an organisations risk. ZTRR identifies key focus areas in relation to technology, people & processes across the dimesons of devices, network, workloads, identity & data.

The focus of the ZTRR is;

• Cloud Workload Protection • Workload to Workload communications • Federation practices & patterns • Data Classification and Protection • Secret Management & Authentication • Secure Development practices • Business Case for change

AWS Security Hub will be used to understand what controls are currently in place to protect the customer’s AWS environment. Versent will utilise Trusted Advisor alongside performing a Well Architected Review using the Well Architected Tool during the Zero Trust assessment to assess the Security posture of the customer. This will allow for recommendations to be put forward to enhance the overall security posture of the AWS environment.

As part of the ZTRR, Versent provides experienced cloud security specialists. The team will work with your ICT team to collectively understand build out a roadmap for change and uplift aligned to your business needs.
