Cloud & Multi-Cloud Security Services in UAE
What Is Cloud & Multi-Cloud Security?
Cloud security is the discipline of protecting data, identities, workloads and configurations in public cloud platforms. Multi-cloud security extends that across two or more providers and the on-premises systems they connect to, with consistent policy and visibility everywhere.
Under the shared responsibility model the provider secures the underlying infrastructure, but you remain responsible for identities, configuration, data, network exposure and workloads. Most cloud breaches come from misconfiguration, not from the platform.
In the UAE, cloud security also means meeting data residency expectations, DESC and UAE IA cloud requirements, CBUAE outsourcing rules and sector regulations while using regional Azure, AWS and Google Cloud regions.
Cloud Security Challenges We Solve
Misconfiguration at scale
Public storage, open security groups and over-permissive roles across hundreds of subscriptions. We find and fix them continuously with CSPM.
Inconsistent controls across clouds
Azure done one way, AWS another. We define one policy framework and enforce it as code in every platform.
Identity and secrets sprawl
Service principals, access keys and tokens scattered across pipelines. We bring them under workload identity and secrets management.
Residency and compliance
Proving data stays in UAE regions and that controls meet DESC, UAE IA and CBUAE expectations. We map and evidence it.
Blind spots in monitoring
Cloud logs that never reach the SOC. We integrate cloud telemetry into Sentinel or your SIEM with tuned detections.
Our Cloud & Multi-Cloud Security Services
Cloud Security Posture Assessment
Configuration, identity and exposure review across Azure, AWS and Google Cloud against CIS benchmarks and UAE regulatory controls.
Cloud Security Architecture
Secure landing zones, hub-and-spoke networking, identity federation, encryption and logging designed before workloads migrate.
Multi-Cloud & Hybrid Security
Unified policy, identity and monitoring across multiple clouds and on-premises data centres, with consistent guardrails.
CSPM / CWPP Deployment
Microsoft Defender for Cloud, Prisma Cloud, Wiz or native tooling deployed to continuously detect and remediate misconfiguration and workload threats.
Kubernetes & Container Security
Cluster hardening, image scanning, admission control and runtime protection for AKS, EKS, GKE and self-managed Kubernetes.
Cloud Compliance Assessment
Evidence-backed assessment of cloud estates against ISO 27001, UAE IA, DESC ISR, CBUAE, PCI DSS and PDPL requirements.
Azure Security Architecture & Governance
Management groups, Azure Policy, Defender, Key Vault and Sentinel configured as a governed, secure Azure platform.
Managed Cloud Security
24/7 monitoring, posture management and incident response for your cloud estate delivered by our UAE SOC.
Our Cloud Security Delivery Approach
1. Assess the Estate
Automated posture scans plus architecture and identity review across every subscription, account and project.
2. Design Guardrails
Landing zones, policy-as-code, identity model, network design and logging standards agreed with your cloud and platform teams.
3. Harden & Automate
Controls deployed through Terraform, Bicep and native policy so they survive the next deployment, not just the audit.
4. Monitor & Govern
CSPM alerts, SOC detections and compliance dashboards keep posture visible and regulators satisfied.

Cloud & Multi-Cloud Security UAE FAQs
What is the shared responsibility model in cloud security?
The cloud provider secures the physical infrastructure, hypervisors and managed service platforms. You are responsible for your identities, configurations, data, network exposure, applications and workloads. Our services cover your side of that line across every cloud you use.
Can we keep data inside the UAE when using public cloud?
Yes. Microsoft Azure, AWS and Google Cloud all operate UAE regions. We design architectures that pin data and backups to in-country regions, document residency controls and align with DESC, UAE IA and sector regulator expectations.
What is CSPM and do we need it?
Cloud Security Posture Management continuously checks cloud configuration against security benchmarks and alerts on drift. If you run more than a handful of cloud resources, CSPM is the most effective way to prevent the misconfigurations behind most cloud breaches.
Do you secure Kubernetes and containers?
Yes. We harden managed and self-hosted Kubernetes clusters, scan images in the pipeline, enforce admission policies and add runtime protection, following CIS Kubernetes benchmarks and NSA/CISA hardening guidance.
How long does a cloud security assessment take?
A posture assessment of a single cloud typically takes two to three weeks, including automated scanning, architecture review and a prioritised remediation roadmap. Multi-cloud estates are scoped per platform.
Can you monitor our cloud after the project ends?
Yes. Our managed cloud security service provides 24/7 monitoring of cloud logs and posture alerts from our UAE SOC, with monthly posture reporting and incident response when needed.
