PRACTICAL ADVISORY · SAUDI ARABIA
Cloud security assessment and governance advisory
Ideal Proposition reviews cloud security architecture, identity, configuration and operating responsibilities. The engagement helps organisations identify exposure, clarify shared responsibility and prioritise improvements across the cloud services in scope.
Scope, deliverables and commercial assumptions are confirmed before work begins.
WHEN THIS HELPS
Start with the business challenge.
Cloud adoption has moved faster than governance. Teams need a clear view of who owns access, logging, configuration, data protection and recovery across providers and internal functions.
WHAT YOU RECEIVE
Deliverables your team can use.
- Cloud scope and responsibility matrix
- Identity and privileged-access observations
- Configuration and exposure findings
- Logging and monitoring coverage review
- Applicable control mapping where agreed
- Prioritised remediation and governance actions
How the engagement works
- 01 · Define
Agree objectives, systems, evidence needs and accountable stakeholders.
- 02 · Assess
Review evidence, discuss observations and connect findings to business impact.
- 03 · Prioritise
Set actions, ownership, dependencies and options for follow-up validation.
What we need to scope your project
Share providers, subscriptions or accounts, service models, architecture and data classifications. Read-only access, evidence handling and applicable requirements are agreed in advance.
Timeline and fees depend on scope, maturity, evidence availability and the level of support required.

Common questions
Does the cloud provider handle all security?
No. Responsibilities depend on the service model and contract. The review identifies what the provider covers and what your organisation must configure, operate and verify.
Can you assess NCA cloud requirements?
Applicable NCA cloud control mapping can be included after confirming the entity, service model and obligations in scope.
Will the assessment change our environment?
Assessment access and any permitted validation are agreed first. Remediation changes require a separate agreed implementation scope and change process.
Let’s define the right next step.
Tell us the outcome you need and your target date so we can discuss an appropriate scope.
