Cloud security architecture.
Clean Azure environments, designed for the audits ahead and the operations that follow. Built with Terraform, baselined to NIST, and handed over with documentation a successor can actually use.
Four named offers, plus open advisory.
Azure landing zone buildout.
Greenfield enterprise-scale landing zone (ALZ) for organizations standing up Azure properly the first time, or relaunching an unstructured tenant. Delivered as Terraform in your repository, not click-deployed in the portal.
- Management group hierarchy and subscription vending aligned to the Cloud Adoption Framework
- Hub-and-spoke or Virtual WAN topology with Azure Firewall, private DNS, and a private endpoint strategy
- Entra ID baseline: Conditional Access, PIM, named admins, break-glass accounts, hardened legacy auth
- Azure Policy library and custom initiatives mapped to NIST CSF, CMMC, or your target framework
- Monitoring baseline: Log Analytics workspaces, diagnostic settings, Sentinel, Defender for Cloud
- Naming conventions, tagging strategy, cost guardrails, and operations runbooks
Landing zone modernization.
For organizations that have Azure, but it grew organically. We assess the current state, map it against current ALZ guidance and your target framework, and remediate in prioritized waves.
- Two-week assessment with a written gap report and prioritized roadmap
- Terraform-ification of click-deployed resources, with no operational downtime
- Conditional Access cleanup, public endpoint reduction, Defender secure score remediation
- Policy guardrails added without breaking existing workloads
- Documentation refreshed alongside every change
Secure migration to Azure.
Lift-shift-secure for workloads coming from on-premises or another cloud. Security is woven into the migration plan rather than bolted on after cutover. Specialty: tenant migrations into Azure Government and GCC High for defense and aerospace clients.
- Migration wave planning and dependency mapping
- Target landing zone preparation before the first workload moves
- Hybrid identity (Entra Connect, certificate-based auth, SCIM) with phased cutover
- Workload security baselines applied at the time of cutover, not after
- Tenant-to-tenant migrations including Commercial to GCC High
Managed advisory retainer.
A fractional senior cloud security engineer on retainer. Monthly architecture reviews, async engineering Q&A, and right-of-first-refusal for incidents. Designed for organizations that have a small platform team and need senior judgment without a full hire.
- Monthly architecture review meeting and decision log
- Async channel for engineering questions (Teams, Slack, or email)
- Quarterly posture report covering secure score, Sentinel coverage, and policy drift
- Priority response and right-of-first-refusal for incident support
