D3Clarity Well-Architected AWS Security Audit

D3Clarity’s Well-Architected AWS Security Audit evaluates your existing AWS accounts against the AWS Well-Architected Tool, CIS 1.4.0 benchmarks, and the latest AWS security best practices. We identify, prioritize, and remediate risk across identity, networking, data, and compute layers. Unlike a generic checklist, this audit ties findings to Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) such as reduced critical vulnerabilities, improved MTTD and MTTR, and compliance readiness for HIPAA, PCI DSS, or GDPR. As an AWS Advanced Tier Consulting Partner with Well-Architected Partner Program and Migration and Modernization Services Competency designations, D3Clarity combines strategy, cloud architecture, and implementation to deliver measurable security improvements, not just reports.

• Well-Architected Security Review: Structured review of your workloads against the AWS Well-Architected Framework Security pillar, including current-state posture across identity, network, data, logging, and incident response.
• Risk-Indexed Findings and KPI Baseline: Catalog of issues prioritized by risk and impact, with a baseline for Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) such as number of critical/high findings, Mean Time To Detect (MTTD), Mean Time To Recovery (MTTR), and control coverage against your chosen frameworks.
• Prioritized Remediation Roadmap: A pragmatic, time-bound remediation plan aligned to your budget and resourcing, mapping each action to business impact, compliance requirements, and specific KPIs.
• Hands-On Remediation Implementation (Scoped Workloads): Based upon audit findings, D3Clarity engineers can configure and implement agreed-upon security controls in your AWS environment (for example, Identity and Access Management (IAM) hardening, logging and alerts, encryption enforcement, network segmentation), using AWS-native services.
• Security Architecture and Guardrail Design: Updated or net-new security reference architecture, including guardrails and patterns that apply across accounts and workloads to reduce drift and misconfigurations over time.
• Executive and Technical Readouts: Executive summary focused on risk, cost, and compliance, and a deeper technical readout for your engineering and security teams with specific recommendations, owners, and timelines.
• Future-State Scaling and Improvement Plan: Recommendations for how to extend the improved security posture across additional workloads, Regions, and business units.

• Trusted Partner: D3Clarity is a recognized AWS Advanced Tier Consulting Partner with the Amazon Connect Delivery, Well Architected Partner Program, Migration and Modernization Services Competency specializations.
• Specialized Security and Cloud Expertise: One-stop-shop for business strategy, well-architected cloud design, solution implementation, and optional 24×7 production support—minimizing handoffs between consulting, engineering, and operations.
• AWS Partner Funding Experts: Deep experience aligning security modernization work to applicable AWS funding programs, helping many clients offset a meaningful portion of implementation costs based on projected AWS usage.
• Compliance & Assurance Focus: SOC 2 Type II posture and proven experience in regulated industries (for example, HIPAA, PCI, GDPR) reduce your vendor risk and accelerate compliance initiatives.
• Operational Excellence and Cloud Economics: Documented delivery methodologies, clear SLAs, and disciplined cloud cost management practices that keep your security improvements sustainable over time.

• Rapid Reduction in Critical Risk: Many mid-sized AWS environments identify and remediate 10–30 critical or high-risk security findings within the first 30 days of the engagement, often reducing the volume of high-severity misconfigurations by up to 50–60%.
• Improved Detection and Recovery Performance: By standardizing logging, alerting, and incident response runbooks, typical customers see measurable improvements in MTTD and MTTR in the range of 20–40%, translating directly into lower outage and breach impact.
• Audit-Ready, Evidence-Based Security Posture: D3Clarity maps findings and remediations to your target frameworks so you move from ad hoc documentation to clear, evidence-backed control coverage, reducing audit findings, rework, and time spent preparing for external assessments.
