Services

AWS work for every stage, from a first landing zone to monthly support. Every engagement ends with documentation and code your team owns.

Getting started on AWS

For teams setting up AWS properly for the first time, or moving to it.

  • Architecture and landing zones

    A multi-account AWS setup with guardrails, networking and single sign-on in place before the first workload goes live.

  • Migration to AWS

    Servers, databases and applications moved with a tested plan, a rehearsal and a way back if something goes wrong.

Securing what you have

For teams already on AWS who want to know where they are exposed.

  • Security and compliance

    Least-privilege access, logging and threat detection configured and tuned, with written findings you can hand to auditors.

Running it well

For teams who want lower bills and someone keeping an eye on things.

  • Cost optimisation

    A clear breakdown of where the AWS bill goes, then rightsizing, clean-up and savings plans that cut it.

  • Ongoing support

    Infrastructure as code, deployment pipelines and a monthly review of security findings and spend.

Starter packages

  • Operational excellenceHow you run, monitor and improve workloads
  • SecurityProtecting data, systems and accounts
  • ReliabilityRecovering from failures and meeting demand
  • Performance efficiencyUsing the right resources as needs change

Common questions

Can't see your question? Send it to us and we'll answer it directly.

Where will our data be kept?

In the AWS Region you choose. For UK businesses that is usually London (eu-west-2). A landing zone can also include a control that blocks the use of other Regions.

What access do you need to our AWS accounts?

A role created for the engagement through IAM Identity Center, with only the permissions the work needs. Reviews use read-only access. Everything the role does is recorded in CloudTrail, and the role is removed when the work ends.

Do you sign NDAs?

Yes. We're happy to sign your NDA before you share any details about your systems.

How long does a security health check take?

Usually [3–5 working days] for one AWS organisation, followed by a walkthrough of the findings with your team.

Do you work with Microsoft Azure?

Yes. Our main focus is AWS, and we also work on Microsoft Azure, particularly DevSecOps: building security checks into how your software is built and deployed.

Is there a minimum engagement?

No. Many clients start with one of the starter packages and decide what to do next once they have seen the findings.

Can you work alongside our own engineers?

Yes. We can build with your team and explain as we go, so they can run everything once we have finished.
