Cloud Security Posture Management for UK SMEs: Secure Your Cloud Infrastructure
With the 2024 UK Cyber Security Breaches Survey revealing that over half of UK businesses have experienced a cyber attack, Gridisys provides proactive CSPM to eliminate critical cloud misconfigurations before they are exploited.
The Real Risk to UK SMEs: Cloud Misconfiguration
Many UK SMEs operate under the misconception that cloud providers like AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud manage everything. In reality, the 'Shared Responsibility Model' leaves you fully accountable for securing your data and access configurations. Our experience as a Managed SOC reveals that 90% of cloud breaches stem from basic errors: publicly accessible storage buckets, overly permissive IAM roles, and neglected multi-factor authentication. Gridisys identifies these gaps, providing a bespoke assessment that aligns your posture with Cyber Essentials standards, protecting you from aggressive ransomware groups targeting the UK mid-market.
- ▸Elimination of excessive IAM permissions
- ▸Automated discovery of public storage buckets
- ▸Verification of encryption-at-rest protocols
- ▸Unified visibility across multi-cloud environments
Regulatory Alignment: GDPR, FCA, and NIS Compliance
For FCA-regulated firms and those handling sensitive personal data, cloud security is not just IT—it is a regulatory mandate. Under FCA PS21/3, operational resilience is paramount. Gridisys helps firms bridge the gap between technical cloud configuration and regulatory requirements for GDPR compliance. We translate complex cloud logs into actionable security insights, ensuring your documentation satisfies the ICO requirements during an audit. By leveraging our deep expertise in Microsoft Entra Security, we harden your identity perimeter against common lateral movement tactics used by threat actors.
- ▸Audit-ready documentation for FCA reporting
- ▸Alignment with UK GDPR data sovereignty rules
- ▸Continuous monitoring of cloud access logs
- ▸Proactive remediation of compliance drift

Beyond Configuration: Holistic Managed Security
Cloud Security Posture Management is the foundation, but a truly resilient UK business requires ongoing vigilance. At Gridisys, we extend our expertise into bespoke application development, ensuring that the software your business runs is as secure as the cloud it lives on. By integrating Cybersecurity Consulting with our development lifecycle, we catch vulnerabilities during the design phase rather than post-deployment. We empower UK SMEs to scale safely, knowing their digital assets are protected by a partner who understands both the technical nuance of cloud orchestration and the stringent demands of the UK regulatory landscape.
- ▸Secure cloud-native application development
- ▸Ongoing threat monitoring via managed SOC
