SaaS + Cloud Security

Cloud Application Security
in Michigan.

Moving an application to the cloud changes where it runs. It does not eliminate your responsibility for who can access it or what happens to the data inside it.

CTS helps businesses secure SaaS and cloud applications through identity controls, secure access, endpoint protection, monitoring, data-loss controls, configuration management and backup strategy.

Security Layers

Protect the access path, not just the application.

Identity

MFA, account lifecycle, privileged access, authentication policy and least-privilege design.

Devices

Reduce the risk that compromised or unmanaged endpoints become the route into cloud applications.

Data

Control sharing, encryption, sensitive-data movement, retention and independent backup where appropriate.

Monitoring

Use available logging, SIEM, alerts and security operations to identify abnormal behavior.

Common Cloud Risks

Cloud does not mean automatically secure.

The most important risks often involve compromised accounts, excessive permissions, unsafe sharing, unmanaged devices, weak remote access, incomplete logging or data that is not independently recoverable.

Credential Theft

Excess Permissions

Data Leakage

Unsafe Devices

Poor Logging

No Independent Backup
