Umbrella Infocare helps client secure servers
When the client decided to migrate from an on-premise data center to AWS Cloud, certain unique needs emerged. They needed to ensure a secure infrastructure from the perimeter side to prevent possible attackers from penetrating the servers. The company required a security solution to inspect the traffic before it reaches the server, and they wanted to control outbound traffic to prevent unrestricted access to the internet by the servers.
They wanted to:
- Leverage AWS cloud security benefits
- Meet security and compliance requirements
- Improve security posture of AWS environment
- Inspect all incoming and outgoing traffic at the perimeter level
Umbrella Infocare Enhances Compliance & Security for Client
Umbrella Infocare proposed a solution for client that involves several measures to ensure the security and reliability of their AWS infrastructure. We deployed Firewalls in multiple availability zones for redundancy and scalability, which enables them to inspect all incoming and outgoing traffic. The solution also includes continuous monitoring using AWS Best practices and Center for Internet Security (CIS) Benchmark via AWS Security Hub. For the protection of Web URLs hosted on AWS infrastructure, we deployed Web Application Firewall (WAF). In addition, AWS logging is enabled for governance, compliance, operational auditing, and risk auditing of AWS accounts. Load balancers protect instances from direct internet access. Logs and security services are integrated with 24/7 monitoring, and we rovide round-the-clock support for infrastructure and security requests.
Key AWS services used
- AWS Security Hub
- Security Group
- AWS Secrets Manager
- AWS Key Management Service
- NACL
- AWS Identity & Access Management (IAM)
- AWS Certificate Manager (ACM)
Proper implementation of security services best suited to business needs resulted in cost savings for the client. We helped them reduce the need for expensive security hardware and software, minimize downtime due to security incidents, and avoid potential fines and legal fees resulting from non-compliance with security and regulatory standards. Furthermore, they also gained business’s agility and scalability and could quickly adapt to changing security threats and business requirements. Our solutions also facilitate the adoption of new technologies and services offered by AWS.
