Cloud Security Services

Expose Cloud Risk Before It Turns Into Business Impact.

Cloud security exposes risk before it becomes business impact. Blue Mantis assesses M365 critical security controls, runs cloud security posture assessment and remediation, designs secure migration architecture, and implements data security posture management across cloud estates.

What Blue Mantis Delivers in Cloud Security Services

Blue Mantis gives you visibility into cloud configuration, identity, and data risk, then turns the findings into a prioritized remediation plan.

M365 Critical Security Controls Assessment

Blue Mantis evaluates your Microsoft 365 tenant against CIS-aligned security benchmarks and industry best practices. We focus on the identity, email, collaboration, and data configurations attackers most often exploit.

What Blue Mantis covers

CIS-aligned control validation: Evaluates tenant configuration against proven security benchmarks.
Identity and access analysis: Reviews Entra ID roles, MFA enforcement, and privilege controls.
Workload security review: Assesses Exchange, SharePoint, Teams, and Copilot configurations.
Gap analysis with remediation: Identifies vulnerabilities and delivers prioritized fixes.

Cloud Security Posture Assessment & Remediation

Blue Mantis evaluates cloud environments for misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and compliance gaps across platforms like Azure and AWS. We focus on improving visibility into cloud risk and ensuring controls are properly configured.

What Blue Mantis covers

Configuration risk identification: Finds misconfigured services that increase exposure.
Multi-cloud posture visibility: Evaluates security across Azure, AWS, and hybrid environments.
Compliance alignment validation: Maps controls to frameworks and internal requirements.
Prioritized remediation guidance: Focuses on fixing the most critical issues first.

Cloud Migration & Security Architecture

Blue Mantis ensures cloud migrations are designed with security and cost built in from the start. It addresses architecture, identity models, governance controls, and the financial case for migration, so decisions are grounded in both risk and ROI.

What Blue Mantis covers

Secure architecture design: Aligns cloud environments to Zero Trust and least privilege principles.
FinOps cost-benefit assessment: Evaluates initial and ongoing costs against potential savings, with certified FinOps practitioner support across M365, Azure, and SaaS/IaaS licensing.
Migration risk reduction: Identifies dependencies and vulnerabilities before migration execution.
Strategic roadmap: Combines security architecture and financial impact into a single phased migration plan.

Data Security Posture Management

Blue Mantis focuses on understanding where sensitive data lives, how it is exposed, and how it is governed across cloud environments. We help organizations reduce risk tied to oversharing, misclassification, and compliance gaps.

What Blue Mantis covers

Sensitive data discovery: Identifies where regulated or business-critical data resides.
Exposure and access analysis: Evaluates sharing, permissions, and data access patterns.
Data governance alignment: Maps data controls to compliance and business requirements.
Risk prioritization: Focuses remediation on high-impact exposure scenarios.

What happens at each step

How Cloud Security Services Work

Step 1

Inventory Cloud Assets

We identify cloud workloads, identities, configurations, and data flows across your environment. This establishes a complete view of what needs to be protected before making risk decisions.

Step 2

Evaluate Security Controls

Your environment is assessed against CIS-aligned benchmarks, best practices, and real-world attack patterns. This highlights configuration gaps, access risks, and weak controls that increase exposure.

Step 3

Identify and Prioritize Risk

Findings are ranked based on business impact, not just technical severity. This ensures teams focus on the exposures that matter most to operations, compliance, and data protection.

Step 4

Deliver Remediation Plan

You receive a clear roadmap with prioritized recommendations and practical next steps. In many cases, high-risk gaps are remediated during the engagement to accelerate risk reduction.

Managed Cybersecurity Services

Mantis Protect Is How Blue Mantis Delivers Managed Cybersecurity

Managed cybersecurity services cover the work most teams cannot staff around the clock: continuous monitoring, threat detection, investigation and response. Without that coverage, even well-chosen tools leave gaps that surface at the worst possible moment.

Mantis Protect is the Blue Mantis managed cybersecurity program. It brings 24×7 monitoring, detection and response together with the compliance and testing work that surrounds it, so one team is accountable for the outcome instead of a set of disconnected tools.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is cloud security posture management?

Cloud security posture management is the practice of evaluating cloud environments for misconfigurations, vulnerabilities, and compliance gaps, then fixing what is found. Blue Mantis reviews posture across Azure, AWS, and hybrid environments, identifies misconfigured services that increase exposure, and maps controls to frameworks and internal requirements. Findings are returned as prioritized remediation guidance so the most critical issues are addressed first.

How do you secure a Microsoft 365 tenant?

Blue Mantis evaluates the tenant against CIS-aligned security benchmarks and industry best practices, focusing on the identity, email, collaboration, and data configurations attackers most often exploit. That includes reviewing Entra ID roles, MFA enforcement, and privilege controls, and assessing Exchange, SharePoint, Teams, and Copilot configurations. The assessment ends with a gap analysis and a prioritized set of fixes.

What is DSPM and how is it different from CSPM?

DSPM, or data security posture management, focuses on the data itself: where sensitive data lives, how it is exposed, and how it is governed. CSPM focuses on how cloud services are configured and looks for misconfigurations that increase exposure. Blue Mantis delivers both, using sensitive data discovery, access and sharing analysis, and risk prioritization on the data side.

Why start with an assessment instead of jumping to tools?

Tools solve specific problems, but without knowing what your environment looks like and where the actual gaps are, you risk investing in the wrong controls. An assessment establishes a clear picture of your cloud security posture first, so recommendations are grounded in what is actually present and missing, not assumptions.

What makes cloud security different from traditional security?

Cloud environments are dynamic, identity-driven, and shared-responsibility models where misconfigurations, not just malware, are the primary risk. Traditional perimeter defenses do not translate directly. Cloud security requires continuous visibility into how identities, permissions, data, and services are configured and interact with each other.

See where your cloud environment is exposed.

We will review your cloud platforms, identity controls, and data exposure points to identify where risk exists. You leave with a prioritized plan to strengthen security and support secure cloud growth.
