A structured review of your Azure IaaS environment designed to identify risk, validate architectural alignment, uncover security gaps, and provide a formal, prioritized path toward full remediation.
SKYTEK performs a comprehensive, consultant-led review of Azure IaaS environments to evaluate both technical health and control maturity. The goal is not just to identify issues, but to produce actionable recommendations and a practical remediation plan.
Review Microsoft Defender for Cloud recommendations, secure score, policy enforcement, baseline hardening, workload protection, logging, threat detection, vulnerability exposure, and security control maturity across the Azure IaaS estate.
Evaluate Entra ID integration, RBAC, PIM readiness, MFA coverage, Conditional Access alignment, service principals, legacy authentication exposure, administrative role sprawl, break-glass accounts, and privileged access hygiene.
Assess virtual networks, peering, routing, NSGs, Azure Firewall, VPN/ExpressRoute design, public exposure, subnet segmentation, management plane access, jump host strategy, and east-west traffic controls.
Inspect VM sizing, operating system lifecycle, patching approach, endpoint protection, backup agents, anti-malware, extension health, workload resiliency, and server placement against security and performance best practices.
Validate Recovery Services Vault design, backup coverage, retention, immutability considerations, restore testing maturity, disaster recovery strategy, replication dependencies, and documented recovery objectives.
Review resource sprawl, idle assets, rightsizing opportunities, reserved instance alignment, storage optimization, unmanaged growth, tagging discipline, lifecycle governance, and opportunities to reduce recurring cloud spend.
Every assessment follows a structured delivery model that gives your leadership team clear visibility while giving your technical teams the detail needed to move from findings to execution.
Over-permissioned administrative roles and weak RBAC governance.
Publicly exposed services or insufficient network segmentation.
Inconsistent backup coverage and limited recovery validation.
Security recommendations present in Azure but not formally remediated.
Resource sprawl, unmanaged growth, and avoidable recurring cloud spend.
Reduce privilege exposure, strengthen access controls, and align administrative access with least privilege principles.
Standardize policy, tagging, subscription governance, monitoring, and baseline controls across the Azure estate.
Improve backup, recovery, monitoring, alerting, and continuity planning to support operational stability.
Produce findings and recommendations that leadership can understand, approve, and prioritize for action.
The assessment is the foundation. Once findings are finalized, SKYTEK prepares a formal remediation SOW that converts observations into a structured implementation plan.
SKYTEK Solutions will perform full remediation of the Client’s Azure IaaS environment based on the findings produced during the Azure Security & Best Practice Assessment. The objective is to improve security posture, reduce operational risk, align the environment to Microsoft cloud best practices, increase resilience, and establish a cleaner target-state architecture for ongoing support and future growth.
Remediation may include hardening of identity and access controls, RBAC cleanup, MFA and Conditional Access alignment, NSG and firewall rule refinement, public exposure reduction, Azure Policy deployment, Defender for Cloud tuning, VM hardening, patching improvements, backup and disaster recovery corrections, monitoring and alerting enhancements, logging improvements, tagging and governance alignment, and cost optimization actions where approved by the Client.
Work will be executed in structured phases: critical risk remediation first, high-priority best practice corrections second, architectural optimization third, and final validation/documentation fourth. Change control will be followed for any production-impacting activity. All implementation steps will be coordinated with Client stakeholders and scheduled to minimize business disruption.
Client will provide timely access, stakeholder participation, approvals for production changes, licensing where required, and review of proposed recommendations. Client is responsible for any third-party application dependencies, vendor coordination, and business sign-off where application owners must validate operational impact.
Unless explicitly added, application code remediation, non-Azure systems, end-user workstation work, line-of-business application troubleshooting, penetration testing, and managed SIEM/SOC services are excluded. Pricing and timeline will depend on complexity, number of subscriptions, regions, workloads, and the volume of corrective actions authorized by the Client.
SKYTEK delivers structured Azure assessments that help organizations understand risk, prioritize improvements, and move into a clear remediation program backed by a formal Statement of Work.
