Cloud security
Cube Cyber runs cloud security as a continuous managed service, posture management that catches misconfigurations, exposed services and risky permissions as they appear, threat monitoring of cloud activity through our 24/7 Australian SOC, and remediation that keeps pace with the speed cloud teams change things. Cloud breaches overwhelmingly begin on the customer side of the shared responsibility model; this service owns that side.
Talk To Us About Cloud Security
Cloud security fails at cloud speed:
The natural moments: rapid cloud growth or migration, when exposure is being created faster than review can catch it; a posture assessment, ours or a tool's, that produced findings without capacity; audit, APRA or insurer questions about cloud controls; and any incident or near miss involving a cloud misconfiguration, the category that produces the most avoidable breaches in Australia. The service also operationalises cloud architecture work, landing zones and guardrails from our architecture practice stay effective because someone is watching them.
Core capabilities & deliverables
Cloud security posture management
Continuous assessment of configurations across your cloud platforms against benchmarks and your own baselines, misconfigurations, exposures and drift caught in hours, prioritised by real exploitability, and driven to remediation with owners and SLAs.
Cloud threat detection and response
Cloud control-plane and workload telemetry monitored through our 24/7 SOC, identity anomalies, privilege escalation, unusual data movement, resource hijacking, with response per agreed playbooks, and MDR authority where delegated.
Cloud identity and entitlement management
Cloud permissions continuously right-sized, over-permissioned roles, unused entitlements and risky trust relationships reduced, the cloud twin of privileged access management, and just as decisive.
Guardrail operation
Preventive policy operated across your platforms, what can be deployed, exposed and configured, so classes of misconfiguration become impossible rather than merely detected, guardrails from our architecture practice, kept alive in operation.
Data exposure management
Continuous discovery of publicly accessible storage, over-shared data and unencrypted assets across cloud estates, the finding category behind the most embarrassing breach headlines, treated with matching priority.
Multi-cloud and SaaS coverage
Posture and monitoring across the platforms you actually run, including the SaaS estate where configuration risk increasingly lives, one service, one report, however many clouds.
Cloud security runs on the managed practice model, at cloud cadence:
Onboard
Estate discovery across platforms and accounts, baseline definition, and the honest first posture report, typically the moment the real scope of drift becomes visible.
Tune
The initial exposure paid down: critical misconfigurations closed, guardrails enforced, detection content deployed for cloud-specific tradecraft.
Operate
Continuous posture management, 24/7 threat monitoring, entitlement right-sizing and remediation workflow, at the speed the environment changes.
Improve
Monthly posture trending, new-service coverage as platforms evolve, and guardrail expansion so the same finding class never returns twice.
The service aligns to platform security benchmarks and well-architected guidance, ASD cloud security guidance and the Essential Eight where it reaches cloud, ISO 27001 control objectives and APRA expectations, with Microsoft Security accreditation among our platform credentials, and client data kept onshore in Australia.

Both, split by the shared responsibility model: providers secure the platform; you secure everything you configure and deploy on it, identities, permissions, network exposure, data, workloads. Nearly every cloud breach in the headlines sits on the customer side of that line, and the customer side is precisely what this service operates.
For the same reason a smoke detector is not a fire brigade. Posture tools find; someone must prioritise against real risk, route to owners, remediate, and prevent recurrence with guardrails, and someone must do it continuously. We operate the tool you have, or provide one, and supply the missing half: the remediation engine.
Yes, and the distinction matters: posture management prevents the open door; threat monitoring catches the intruder using a legitimate key. Cloud control-plane and workload telemetry feeds our 24/7 SOC with cloud-specific detection content, and response follows your playbooks, up to full MDR containment authority where delegated.
The platforms our clients actually run, the major public clouds, and the growing SaaS estate where misconfiguration risk now equally lives. Multi-cloud is the norm, not the exception, and the service reports one posture across all of it rather than a console per cloud.
The design goal is the opposite. Guardrails replace review queues, approved patterns inherit security automatically, and findings arrive at the responsible team with context and a fix, not a ticket and a lecture. Cloud teams typically resist security that means waiting; they rarely resist security that means fewer 2am rollbacks.
Architecture builds the secure foundation, landing zones, guardrails, identity design; this service keeps it true at operating speed, and feeds what it learns back into the design. Taken together, cloud environments stay as secure as they were built; taken alone, this service will still meet your cloud where it is.
Client data handled through our SOC and services is kept onshore in Australia, and the analysts monitoring your cloud activity are Australian. Where your own workloads carry residency obligations, the service includes monitoring for exactly that, region drift and services that would move data offshore are treated as findings, not footnotes.
