Reliability, Security and Scalability

Customer Challenges

Skyes has experienced significant growth, and its AWS use has also grown over time and was looking for an overall infrastructure security run-through workshop to check the fundamentals.
Having previously worked with CloudiQS, Skyses engaged with us to do a deep dive into the account to look at any security concerns and improvements to the infrastructure.
As with any fast-growing business, it can be difficult to bring in enough resources, so Skyes needed our help quickly. After an initial conversation, we started the risk register the following day and delivered results a week later.
Secure / with No single point of Failure

Our Solution

  • Access management and account setup
  • Analysis of security groups, password policies, access keys, IAM access, root account usage
  • Documentation of application flows and dependencies
  • Monitoring and encryption
  • Technology audits
Cost savings. secure and fully Redundant

The Results

CloudiQS was able to deliver some key coverage in the workshop that covers the elements of the broader infrastructure : 

  • AWS Shilded, using Advanced features 
  • AWS network Firewall protections 
  • AWS Strong Password Policy 
  • RDS Encryptions 

As a result, the Skyes team aims to have more infrastructure that is significantly more secure, and an ongoing cost optimisation programme is now in place to improve efficiency overall. Crucially, the team is better equipped to successfully scale at pace to meet their business needs
