Identity and access
Root-account protection, MFA, unused access, risky policies, privilege paths, and IAM patterns that make access harder to govern.
AWS Security Posture Assessment
See the AWS security gaps that deserve attention first.
Turn AWS configuration findings into a practical remediation order. We help your team understand exposure, permissions, logging, encryption, and control gaps—then decide what to fix now, what to investigate, and what can wait.
Start with the free assessment. A written findings register and remediation backlog are scoped separately through Consulting.
What we review

High-signal AWS security controls
Exposure and network paths
Public resources, broad security-group rules, unintended internet paths, and controls around sensitive entry points.
Logging and detection
CloudTrail, Config, GuardDuty, log coverage, alerting foundations, and the gaps that make investigation harder.
Data and service configuration
Encryption, public-access controls, resource policies, retention, and common service-level configuration risks.
Two useful depths
Get live direction or commission a written backlog
Complimentary security session
Your team runs an open-source, read-only scanner such as Prowler in your own AWS environment and shares the results during the call. We help interpret the highest-value findings, identify likely noise, and establish priorities.
- One hour during your team’s U.S. business day
- Your credentials and scan data stay under your control
- Verbal findings and recommendations; no written deliverable
Scoped security posture assessment
When the decision needs broader evidence and a durable plan, we scope a Consulting engagement around the accounts, regions, services, and framework lens that matter to you.
- Defined evidence coverage and access plan
- Validated, prioritized findings with clear context
- Written remediation backlog tied to the measured environment

From raw findings to a remediation plan
Start with the free assessment
Discuss the environment, business priorities, recent concerns, and the decision you need to make.
Review the evidence
Use a client-run scan or a separately agreed evidence plan to examine the controls in scope.
Prioritize by risk and effort
Separate urgent exposure from longer-term hardening and connect each recommendation to a real finding.
Move into remediation
Your team can own the backlog, or Uptempo can deliver it through Consulting or recurring Support and Advisory.
What this means
A clearer security posture—not a checkbox exercise
This work helps teams find and prioritize AWS configuration risk. It is not a penetration test, formal audit, certification, or guarantee of compliance. If your organization has a specific framework or audit objective, we can map the engineering work to that context while your auditor and counsel retain their roles.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do you need access to our AWS account for the free session?
No. Your team runs the read-only scanner in your account and shares the results on screen. Uptempo does not receive credentials or retain the scan output.
What if we have not run Prowler?
Start with the Free AWS Assessment. We can discuss the highest-signal areas and decide whether a client-run scan or a scoped evidence collection is the useful next step.
Can you help fix the findings?
Yes. A defined remediation outcome can become a Consulting project. An evolving security backlog can move through Support and Advisory.
