🧠 2. Our Approach (with Visual)
🔹 Single Pane of Glass Security Control
🔹 Policy Normalization Across Providers
🔹 Automated Alerting, Hardening, and Response
[Cloud Inventory Discovery] → [Policy Mapping (Multi-Cloud)] → [Unified Risk Scoring] → [Automation Hooks (Fix/Alert)] → [SIEM/SOAR Integration] → [Dashboarding & Governance] → [Ongoing Monitoring Plan]
🧪 3. Methodology (with Visual)
[Kickoff] → [Account Discovery Across Clouds] → [IAM & Network Baseline Audit] → [Security Control Harmonization] → [Policy-as-Code Validation] → [Alerting/Remediation Integration] → [Compliance Reporting Enablement] → [Fix Implementation Support] → [Post-Fix Validation & Certification]

📚 9. Real-World Case Studies
🛑 Overprivileged IAM in Multi-Cloud Analytics Platform
Issue: Analysts had admin access across AWS and GCP
Impact: Accidental IAM policy overwrite led to service outage
🛠️ Our Fix Journey: SaaS Platform with EKS + Azure AD + GCP Storage
Client: Global SaaS serving finance and legal sectors
Findings:
- No policy standardization across clouds
- IAM inconsistencies and overuse of wildcard roles
Our Role: - Delivered normalized policy-as-code framework
- Integrated alerting via Sentinel and CloudWatch
Outcome: - Achieved SOC 2 Type II with unified control matrix
- Prevented further cross-cloud misconfig incidents
