Open the Box: Managed Services Catalogue

Delivering key value – a direction to and a foundation for success – for our customers in the cloud is as exciting as it is professionally challenging.

Over the years we have worked alongside different customers to map the essence of the work that we tend to need to repeat again and again for each customer.

Because we are responsible and skilled engineers, cloud consultants, and project managers, and because we do not like to waste our time, or tour customers’ time we started to envision a body of work that may be effectively reused across customers and industries.

Modern security compliance requires an automated response

Finding The Compliance Unicorn

Perfect compliance is something of a unicorn, but we must always strive toward it. Compliance has only one constant – change – and that makes it hard to accomplish permanence within and an overview over the state of your Cloud. Your service in the cloud might be compliant today but will not necessarily be compliant tomorrow.

That leaves your business with a lot of continuous hours spent trying to keep up with new standards for compliance. For most people, that is not a sustainable practice – and that is where Managed Cloud Compliance comes in.

The way to become compliant is to never actually be non-compliant to begin with. When compliance inevitably changes, the Managed Cloud Compliance service monitors the changes and updates the components used by your development teams. Your teams can simply roll deployments forward to a new compliant state. This dance is perpetual. Having access to an expert team to get compliance-asa-service for starting off safely and correctly, and for the future of your cloud estate, is the rational business move to make.
