Cloud Transformation Advisory

Security Consulting Services cloud transformation advisory

CLOUD WORKSHOP DATASHEET WHITEPAPER

Information Technologies are rapidly transforming to new, “digital” concepts. Areas such as Infrastructure as a Service, Platform and Function as a Service, as well as migrations to public cloud providers are top of mind and impact the field of cyber security in very significant ways. Organizations are evaluating long-held operational models and business processes and envisioning future states where software operates corporate IT systems autonomously and code replaces traditional technology form factors. Check Point’s Cloud Transformation Advisory services provide an efficient and thorough platform for transitioning corporate security programs to a digital future. Our advisors help customers understand the security design patterns of multiple cloud use cases (Public/Private IaaS, security of cloud and through cloud, and many more) and provide practical guidance for how best to implement the changes needed to progress through the transformation process.

Advanced Cyber Security Assessment

Check Point also provides pure-play consulting services that enable organizations to prepare for compliance and audit activities and accelerate their maturity benchmarking efforts. Our assessment offerings include:

Assurance reviews based on industry standard frameworks, such as NIST 800-53, NIST CSF and CIS
Cloud security posture engagements based on best practices from AWS, Azure and Google
Vulnerability assessment and penetration tests on external and internal zones, including compromise assessments
Comprehensive security posture assessments, including incident preparation, tabletop exercises and SOC design reviews

Timeline

ARCHITECTURE WORKSHOPS
Our consulting service engagement process involves key stakeholder discussions with detailed review of the business perspectives, drivers, strategy, challenges, current state, desired future state, and target security architecture.

Business and Architecture Review:
Check Point teams capture multiple data-points relating to business context, strategy, organizational aspirations, security posture, etc. though a tailored face-to-face workshop. The framework is used because it meets the customers’ requirements for a structured systematic approach to the design, architecture and ongoing digital transformation.

Design and Build Security Architecture:
Check Point architects develop a response to the business and security requirements aligned with security best practices to enable the clients’ digital transformation. Open standards, such as Zero Trust, are used as architectural design principles. The Security Architecture Workshop and CESF process take a business requirement and translate it to a working, physical solution that protects the customer and reduces their cyber risk.
