MarketOps Cloud Sovereign-28 AWS Governance Assessment

Sovereign-28 by MarketOps Cloud is a professional services engagement that evaluates enterprise AWS environments across 34 commercial regions using 28 audit vectors spanning 12 control domains. Our assessment identifies governance gaps, quantifies cost recovery potential, and delivers audit-ready compliance artifacts - giving CFOs, CTOs, Compliance Officers, and Engineering Leaders the evidence they need for AWS FTR certification, board reviews, or investor diligence.

Unlike manual assessments, Sovereign-28 analyzes configuration telemetry across Compute, Storage, Database, KMS, Networking, Identity, CloudTrail, WAF, Config, ECR, RDS, and SecurityGroups domains simultaneously. Every finding is severity-classified (CRITICAL, HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW) with ready-to-execute AWS CLI remediation commands - not just observations, but actionable fixes your team can implement immediately.

The SHA-384 dual-sealed assessment record provides cryptographic proof of findings at a point in time, satisfying audit and regulatory evidence requirements that narrative-only reports cannot meet. The machine-readable GRC JSON manifest integrates directly into ServiceNow, Splunk, or existing GRC pipelines for automated compliance tracking.

A typical assessment uncovers findings such as: CRITICAL publicly accessible RDS instances, CRITICAL unrestricted SSH security groups, HIGH missing CloudTrail trails, HIGH unencrypted RDS storage, MEDIUM disabled KMS key rotation, MEDIUM unattached EBS volumes, and LOW missing WAF Web ACLs. One real engagement identified 82 governance findings across 34 regions - each with a specific remediation path.

Phase 1 - Deployment (Day 1): Deploy a read-only observational IAM role via CloudFormation (approximately 30 seconds). Zero write-access, zero data egress, zero infrastructure changes. Identity verification uses AWS STS AssumeRole.

Phase 2 - Assessment (Days 2-5): Our team conducts structured operational reviews and analyzes configuration telemetry across all 12 control domains and 34 regions.

Phase 3 - Delivery (Days 6-10): Receive your complete assessment package including all deliverables below.

• Executive governance narrative with control evaluation posture taxonomy breakdown
• Quantified annualized cloud cost recovery potential
• Severity-classified findings with AWS CLI remediation commands per finding
• SHA-384 dual-sealed compliance artifact for audit evidence
• Machine-readable GRC JSON manifest (Appendix A) for ServiceNow/Splunk/GRC integration
• Tailored security posture advisory documentation
