Find the AWS risks that actually deserve engineering time.

We manually validate the findings that matter, remove the noise your team will never action, and package the review into a report your engineers can use without translating scanner output into real work.

Where security reviews break down

Most AWS security reviews fail at the handoff to engineering.

Teams do not need more scanner volume. They need a review that explains what is real, what is urgent, and what the remediation path looks like inside their current AWS architecture.

What changes after the review

The outcome is a report your team can turn into a backlog, not a document that creates another layer of triage work before real remediation begins.

Typical deliverable

Generic findings and compliance language that still leave your engineers with the hard translation work.

What your team needs

A security review that narrows the report to the issues worth fixing and explains how to fix them.

Typical deliverable

Scanner noise

Hundreds of low-context findings, weak prioritization, and no clear ownership handoff.

What your team needs

Validated signal

A short list of the findings your engineers should actually spend time fixing, validated against the real environment.

Typical deliverable

Generic best practices

Checklist language that ignores why the current AWS architecture exists or what constraints it serves.

What your team needs

Architecture-aware context

Recommendations that account for your business constraints and explain the operational trade-offs behind each one.

Typical deliverable

Findings dump

A PDF that flags problems but leaves the team to figure out the remediation path on their own.

What your team needs

Executable fixes

Console steps, CLI commands, and prioritization that drop straight into your engineering backlog.

Report preview

A report your engineers fix from, not another PDF to triage.

Built for engineering use. Starts with the highest-risk issues, shows the validated technical detail, and ends with a remediation path your team can execute the same day.

Why teams act on it

Every section answers a question the team would have asked anyway: what matters first, what is real in this account, and how to fix it without another round of interpretation.

How the review runs

The Security Review Roadmap

The engagement is structured to move quickly from access to validated findings. The goal is not a generic audit artifact. It is a report your team can use to reduce real risk with less interpretation work.

Step 1

Context and access

We start with the environment context, current pain points, and the control boundaries you care about before requesting temporary read-only access.

Access setupArchitecture context capturedKnown concerns logged
Step 2

Deep validation against controls

We inspect IAM, networking, storage, logging, and adjacent services against 200+ controls, including AWS Foundational Best Practices, then validate which findings are materially risky in your environment.

Validated findingsArchitecture-aware notesFalse positives filtered out
Step 3

Report and remediation path

You receive a report structured for engineering use, with prioritized risks, supporting evidence, and remediation instructions your team can act on immediately.

Security review FAQ

What teams ask
before granting access

What is included in the AWS Security Review Report?
Our Security Review Report provides a detailed breakdown of every security finding:
  • Finding Details: A clear explanation of the issue and its potential impact on your environment.
  • Affected Resources: A specific list of resources (e.g., Security Groups, S3 Buckets including ARNs) impacted by the finding.
  • Recommendation & Source: Step-by-step remediation instructions, including CLI commands and links to official AWS documentation for further reading.
This structured approach ensures you have a complete overview of each risk and the exact steps needed to fix it.
How is this different from relying on automated security tools?

Automated tools surface signals; we add context. We validate the findings, remove false positives, and deliver remediation guidance tailored to your workloads. We benchmark against the CIS AWS Foundations Benchmark, AWS Foundational Security Best Practices, the AWS Well-Architected Security Pillar, and relevant compliance frameworks such as SOC 2, HIPAA, and PCI DSS.

What does the AWS Security Review cost?

Security Reviews start from $495. The final fixed price depends on the size of your AWS environment, the number of accounts, and the depth of remediation guidance you need. We confirm the scope and the price during the free intro call before any paid work starts. No commitment required.

How long does the review take from start to finish?

A typical Security Review takes 1 to 2 weeks end to end: a 30-minute kickoff to scope and grant access, 4 to 8 days of analysis depending on environment size, and a 30-minute walkthrough where we present the findings live. You see the report and the walkthrough at the same time, not weeks later in your inbox.

Why pay you when AWS Security Hub and Trusted Advisor are free?

Security Hub and Trusted Advisor are useful signal sources, but they generate volume, not prioritization. They surface every finding regardless of whether it applies to your architecture, and they leave the validation, business-impact analysis, and remediation work to your team. Our review adds that layer: we filter for false positives, map findings to your specific workloads, and deliver a fix path your engineers can execute the same day.

Can we share the report with auditors, customers, or investors?

Yes. The report is yours to use. Clients commonly share it during SOC 2 audits, with enterprise customers asking for security documentation, and with investors during due diligence. Each finding references the relevant CIS, AWS Foundational Security Best Practices, and SOC 2 / HIPAA / PCI-DSS controls so the evidence is recognizable to any auditor.

How do you keep temporary access to our AWS account secure?

We use time-limited IAM roles with only the permissions required for the assessment. All activity is logged in your CloudTrail, and we remove access as soon as the review concludes. No long-lived credentials are ever created.

What if there are hundreds of findings? Will the report be overwhelming?

Findings are grouped by severity, service, and remediation pattern. For widespread issues we highlight bulk fixes, and every recommendation includes step-by-step console guidance plus copy-ready CLI commands so your team can act quickly.

What happens after the review, and can you help implement fixes?

We deliver the report, walk you through it in a 30-minute session, and then you choose the path forward: handle remediation internally, request a quote for us to assist, or schedule a follow-up validation review at a reduced rate. Implementation support is optional but available when you need it.
