Introduction

In today’s digital age, where businesses are accelerating their move to the cloud, there’s an essential factor that can’t be overlooked: compliance. With standards like PCI, NIST 800, CIS, HIPAA, and many others emerging as industry benchmarks, ensuring compliance is no longer a luxury—it’s a necessity.

The AWS Default Dilemma

AWS, one of the leading cloud service providers, is designed with an expansive and flexible approach. Its defaults are built for versatility to cater to a wide variety of user needs. However, while AWS defaults are fantastic for simpler workloads, they don’t always come pre-configured to meet various compliance requirements of complex applications. Why is this? It’s because AWS aims to be a broad canvas, allowing businesses to paint their unique operational models.

Yet, as more and more workloads seek robust security through compliance adherence, there arises a challenge. Organizations often find themselves needing experienced cloud architects. These architects are not just versed in the nuances of AWS and its plethora of services but are also have extensive knowledge of various compliance standards. They dive deep, configuring services to meet these standards, and subsequently rigorously test them for compliance—a task that is undeniably time-consuming and intricate.
