What is a cloud security assessment?
Find Gaps in the Configuration of Your Cloud Environment
Often, we assume that default configurations in cloud environments are inherently more secure. As a result, organizations often migrate quickly and without adhering to sound cloud security guidelines and practices.
A cloud security assessment or cloud migration risk assessment is an overall health check of your environment’s configuration from a security-focused lens.
Applying our risk ratings, your security analyst will suggest prioritized remediation to enhance security. This ensures a proactive approach to cloud vulnerability management.

Over the course of a few days, your FRSecure analyst will log into your cloud environment and verify security configurations against the CIS benchmarks—a nationally recognized and respected cloud security framework.
Then, we will record findings with measurable metrics for each configuration.
Following the cloud assessment, a written summary, detailed reports (accompanied by supplemental materials), and prioritized remediation recommendations will be provided, based on our risk ratings and your projected level of effort.
Cloud Security Assessment Steps
Scoping
An FRSecure analyst will work with you and your team to determine the scope of the assessment. Then, you’ll give us temporary access to your environment with read-only administrative credentials.
Assessment
Cloud configurations will be assessed according to CIS benchmarks. Metrics will be provided surrounding control/implementation status, risk rating, level of effort, proof of concept, automation, and manual steps.
Reporting & Recommendations
Once the assessment is completed, you will receive a detailed report including the scope, a summary, top recommendations for high and very high-risk items, and results for each configuration.
Cloud Security Assessment FAQs
A cloud security test identifies weaknesses and then attempts to exploit or, at the very least, demonstrate potential exploits. A cloud security assessment identifies as many weaknesses as possible, enabling an informed decision to be made about the associated risks.
Our cloud security assessments can be conducted on Azure, Amazon Web Services (AWS), and Microsoft 365 (M365).
We are not currently conducting GCP security assessments; however, we are happy to discuss conducting a custom assessment with you. If you’d like to have a GCP environment assessed, please get in touch with a member of our team.
The security checks will generally take place over a couple of weeks.
Pricing is dependent on the number of tenants and the number of controls (based on the cloud platform in your environment).
The assessment is generally priced between $9,000 and $15,000 for a single tenant.
Read-only administrative access. We will not change settings—we simply need to be able to see which setting is selected.
